More about the hotel
great location!
Myself and a friend took a weekend trip to Chicago. We had always wanted to go and try out a deep dish pizza. Radisson Blu Aqua Hotel was a great choice of hotel. We ended up getting a room with a balcony and the views were awesome. The location was great too, so many things were in walking distance, including a CVS (always handy), restaurants, and even Millennium Park. The pool was awesome too! They had cabanas around the pool area which was awesome to be able to get out of the sun during the summer heat and also have our own space. The staff was welcoming and helpful on our mission for a deep dish!!
Missed the mark - frostys is a bust
We brought our kids downtown to enjoy the Frostys pop up package. Holiday decor was very cute and well done. Yet given covid you really can only walk through take a few photos and retreat to your room. The room... we had a double with a balcony. The room was cramped for the 4 of us. The room was not very clean. Giant dust balls/webs hanging in ceiling corners. Sheets had what looked like red juice spilled down the side (likely one of the “frostys cocktails” you get at check in. But why wasn’t it cleaned up? I didn’t notice it till later in the evening and couldn’t deal with requesting a new room. The desk and nightstand had food spots caked on them. The worst was the constant slamming of doors around us. Anytime someone would come or go the whole room shook and it was so loud. This went on till 2am. Neighbors smoking marijuana throughout our stay made it all that more unpleasant with constant odor. Bathroom had no extras like cotton balls. We couldn’t wait to leave in the morning and almost left without even sleeping there it was so disruptive and frankly dirty. I definitely get the feeling given the ability to get a room for $109 a night ppl are coming here to party. For us we paid over $360 for the Frosty experience for our kids to have a change of scenery and well... I’d never recommend the pkg or this hotel.
THE BLU IS FABULOUS!!!!AMAZING SECURITY!!!!GREAT LOBBY !!!!!
Without getting too personal, I want to thank this hotel so much for their ability to spot a problem, and a danger, that other hotels have missed. I am dealing with.... fo r lack of a better word and all intensive purposes) I’m dealing with a stalker. My ex, is a covert narcissist and his behavior has been intensifying since I moved to halfway across the country. I had an unfortunate set of circumstances (which ended up being the creeps doing) set me back and I have been living in hotels essentially for the past 3 weeks. The creep knew this, and began to contact each hotel I was staying at, telling them that I was a drug user, and a danger to the hotel. Officer Akeya Wright, was the one who came to me with another officer who I don’t remember their name but should find out to give some recognition. But officer Akeya confirmed to me that he felt I was in danger as well. He gave me the strength to protect myself. I wanted to leave the hotel, but officer Akeya offered to tell the next hotel all about the creep. I want to say that it was a “god thing”, meeting him. As I type, I’m crying because of the gratitude. The gentle care he took, to help me gather my things and my dog, and see me to safety. He actually said to me, “ I’m going to make sure you are ok, you aren’t in this alone” I will always be thankful. They could have easily just believed my abuser, and who knows what would happen. I’m hoping to maybe live in the apartments above the hotel. Thanks again Radisson blu! Ps, I know, that was really personal lol! Most Sincerely, Steven Schreiber On another note, the place is absolutely gorgeous. The architecture of this building is off the hook!!!! A must see and the restaurant is fabulou. Plus the rooms are huge and really well equipped. COVID-19 restrictions are tight and you will love it too! TRUST ME
Fantastic! As smooth as silk the second that you check in
My friend and I couldn't have been more impressed by this hotel. From the second that you check in, the staff is incredibly kind and polished. Rooms have a fantastic modern decor with extremely plush beds. We very much look forward to our next stay!
