Super friendly staff, nicely appointed hotel — nothing fancy, but is equipped with everything one needs. Charging for late checkout seems odd but was worth it for fewer interruptions to my workday. Love the location. It’s walkable, easy access to train and tons of restaurants.

Me and my partner went there for a 6 day trip and everything was amazing. We have stayed at multiple Marriott properties and this is by far one of the best we have stayed at. The front desk agents were friendly and helpful. The valet team was timely and welcoming. We only requested housekeeping service once and it was done well. It was spotless when we came back. Lastly, the area is nice. There are eateries, bars, stores and pharmacies near by if you need anything it’s a walk away. If I visit Chicago, I will definitely try to stay at this location again. Thanks to the Aloft River North team for making our stay exactly what we needed!

Chicago Chicago
The hotel is situated in a central part of Chicago, making it convenient to access the city and transportation options. The staff were attentive, and while the rooms weren't overly spacious, they were comfortable. My only complaint was regarding the bed, which I found to be less comfortable. However, the views from the hotel were excellent.
