“Sofitel Chicago's French-value comfort”
Sofitel Chicago Magnificent Mile is a clean, French-modern designed hotel in Chicago's busiest stretch — very good bedding on a soft comfortable bed, timely cleaning and turndown, Nespresso machines and Balmain toiletries, a ten-plus-choice breakfast (steak carries a surcharge), walkable surroundings, and rates guests call the best value of their US trip. Two notes: no hot water for tea and lukewarm shower water on cool days, and a strict check-in time meant a hard wait.
