Stunning Duplex Condo #1 – Downtown River North

Stunning Duplex Condo #1 – Downtown River North Overview

First Impressions

Walking into Stunning Duplex Condo #1 – Downtown River North, you immediately get that “wow, this is way nicer than I expected” feeling. It’s one of those places where the photos actually undersell the reality — which honestly doesn’t happen often with vacation rentals. The duplex layout gives you this sense of space that’s pretty rare in Chicago, especially when you’re staying right in the heart of everything. You know what really struck me? The natural light flooding through those oversized windows, making the whole place feel airy despite being in such a dense urban area.

The Space Itself

This four-star property really makes the most of its duplex design. The main living area flows naturally into the dining space, and there’s this kitchen that’s actually functional — not one of those tiny hotel kitchenettes where you can barely make coffee. I mean, you could legitimately cook a proper meal here if you wanted to skip the restaurant scene for a night. The upstairs room feels like a proper retreat, separate enough that if you’re traveling as a couple, you get that sense of having your own private sanctuary above the city buzz.

River North Location

Here’s the thing about staying on N Sedgwick Street — you’re positioned perfectly between the tourist stuff and the neighborhoods where actual Chicagoans hang out. Walk five minutes east and you’re hitting the Magnificent Mile, but head west and you’re in areas with those local spots that don’t make it into guidebooks. The location feedback about couples rating it highly makes total sense when you experience it firsthand. There’s something romantic about having the city right outside your door but still feeling like you have this private escape to return to.

What Makes It Special

The 9.2 rating isn’t just numbers on a screen — you feel it in the details. The apartment has this lived-in comfort that hotels sometimes miss, but with the cleanliness and amenities you’d expect from a top-rated place. Recent guests consistently mention the location, and honestly, they’re not wrong. You can walk to Navy Pier if you’re feeling touristy, grab dinner in River North’s restaurant scene, or just wander the neighborhood discovering those little pockets of Chicago character. The duplex setup also means you’re not dealing with hotel hallway noise or thin walls — it’s your space for however long you’re staying.

Why Guests Love It

What really sets this place apart is how it balances urban energy with actual comfort. You’re not sacrificing space or amenities to be in the center of everything — which, let’s be honest, usually happens with downtown Chicago stays. The fact that couples specifically love it tells you something about the vibe here. It’s intimate without being cramped, central without being chaotic. After spending time here, you understand why the location gets such high marks from recent guests. It’s not just about being downtown; it’s about being in the right part of downtown where you can actually enjoy both the city and your accommodation.

• Erin from United States (10/10)

  This condo was very clean and comfortable and in an excellent location! It was in a safe area and only a 5 minute walk to the brown line with a Starbucks on the way. We could pretty much get anywhere in the loop in 15-30 minutes. It was a perfect home base to see the city from. The kitchen was well stocked with dishes, etc and we cooked many of our meals for our large family here. We were also thankful for the washer and dryer. Our host was very communicative and addressed any questions we had quickly. Thank you for the wonderful stay!
