Fodor's Expert Review City Suites Hotel

European travelers love this hotel for its residential feel; the rooms have black-and-white linens plus midcentury-inspired accents, and two-thirds of them have separate sitting areas with pull-out couches. The neighborhood is a safe and appealing escape from the downtown scene. The hotel's proximity to the El train, however, is both a blessing and a curse; you'll have easy access to downtown and the North Side, but the rumbling noise might be a pain at night. Amenities include a complimentary continental breakfast, afternoon cookies, tea and coffee all day, free Wi-Fi, and access to a nearby health club.
