Reviews of The Buckingham Hotel

  • Komla from United States (9/10)

    The location is awesome, the room is very big, we like it.

  • Denise from Australia (9/10)

    Location and room was fabulous with amazing views, could walk to most places.
    All staff were exceptional, friendly and helpful at the hotel, gym and in the building (reception, and engineer).
    We especially appreciated Ron at hotel reception who helped us as much as possible when the hot water in our bathroom just wasn’t hot enough.

  • Matt from Canada (9/10)

    Incredible views, sufficient breakfast (oatmeal packs, bread, yogurt, fruit), excellent location close to Grant Park (great for the marathon!), convenient for transit (lots of train and bus stops within a block or two). Highly recommend!

  • Christine from United Kingdom (9/10)

    Fantastic views, great location for what we wanted, huge comfortable room, clean, lovely breakfast.

  • Dan from Canada (9/10)

    The view is unbelievable. The room was large and comfortable, Having breakfast included was nice. And it is very close to Lasalle station so an easy train to O’Hare.

  • Claudia from Chile (8/10)

    Great location and amazing view

  • Hanming from United States (9/10)

    Everything, haven't been in a real hotel for a while.

  • Oates from Australia (9/10)

    Amazing view of Lake Michigan from the 40th floor of the stock exchange building. Pay extra for a lake view. The hotel is nice enough, but it's all about that view.
    Finding the hotel was a bit tricky, you have to go into the commercial building, they will give you access to the 39th floor where you will transfer to another lift which takes you to the hotel which is only on the 40th floor.
    The Blue Line train goes from O'Hare airport to La Salle right near the hotel, but be aware there are about 23 steps up to the street and no escalator or lift. If you have bags you may be better to get off at Jackson to use the lift and walk the extra blocks.
    The area is very commerical so there's not much open at night but there is a great bar/ restaurant just next to the building.

  • Scott from United States (8/10)

    The hotel is on the 40th floor of this huge building. The view was amazing! The room was huge for what it was – one large king-size bed. You have to use two elevators to get up to the hotel. The first elevator goes up to 39 and then you use the elevator next to it to go from 39 to the 40th. It's not too bad. I did a walk around the neighborhood and found some great food options. They are maybe 4-5 blocks away. Not a bad walk. One of the best perks was the very secure and private parking underneath the hotel. An attendant is there 24/7 and it's easy to get in and out of.

  • Alyssa from United States (9/10)

    the view was the best.
