I had high hopes for this iconic hotel.
I enjoyed the ambiance at first, but all the old carpets and upholstery along with the faux deco finishes wore on my nerves after a while and it just felt dark. Food was mediocre. Bathroom soaps and lotion were empty. The toilet paper and tissues were just awful, thin and scratchy. The old elevators are so slow it was a nuisance.

Classic Hotel / Great price / Busy at Christmas
The hotel is amazing. We were in town for a family reunion at Christmas time, so the place was packed. The rooms and hotel are fine and the price was a great deal. The service in the main atrium was the only frustrating thing with our visit. No place to sit and the service was very slow/under staffed. The location is great and I think this is a fun hotel...just was super busy during the time we went.

The Perfect Hotel that COULD be
This hotel is gorgeous, it cannot be more centrally located if you just lifted it and put it 2 feet away, it has history, it has the best lobby bar the eyes have seen, but dang if it doesn't need updates. The wallpaper in the room, the bathrooms, the furniture, everything needs to be brought to the 21st century without losing it's Bertha Palmer charm. Get at me if you need ideas

Beautiful hotel, ugly servuce
As a great example of the grand hotels of the past, the Palmer House is beautiful. The lobby is wonderful, particularly when decorated for the holidays. We also felt our room was nicely appointed. Unfortunately, that is where the comparison to the formerly wonderful experiences of the past end. Under Hilton’s ownership, they have forgotten service. They have obviously cut staff to the bone. There was no visible doormen when we arrived, the bell service stays on the floor below the lobby apparently with sole responsibility being the storage of luggage for patrons who have checked out, and on Saturday afternoon, during the holiday rush, there was one single waitress trying to cover dozens of tables and hundreds of guests. Of course, they fail. Guests were waiting 25-30 minutes for elevators to or from their room. Making these failures even more painful was the $25 per day “Daily Destination Charge” Hilton arbitrarily adds to the daily rate. There are many good hotels in the downtown Chicago area. We compared rates and services when choosing our hotel. We knew the Palmer House was beautiful and the overall value seemed best for our holiday weekend. Unfortunately, we did not know the hidden issues and costs.

Borderline fraudulent additions
I strongly disagree that there are additional mandatory amenities that are not covered by the prepaid price. I find that kind of behavior from a hotel in relationship to hotels.com fraudulent. You should know the costs when you book that’s the idea using hotels.com

Iconic hotel, met or exceeded expectations
I stayed here somewhat by accident, having booked the room based on availability and location without looking into its details. We were stunned at the gorgeous designs, the efficient management, and the cleanliness. The room itself was small and the amenities left something to be desired, but overall it was a wonderful stay and I would certainly consider it in the future.
