9 reviews for The Silversmith Hotel and Suites
We stayed here for 5 nights and my overall experience was great! I booked a room with 2 doubles. When we got there, the didn't have any available and gave me a 1-bedroom suite. The bathroom was huge with a separate shower and tub. The rest of the suite was pretty spacious too. There was a sofa pullout and the bed king-sized. Our room was next to the L-train, but it didn't bother any of us during the night.
Everyone that worked there was very curteous and helpful. They greeted us when we would leave and greeted us when we returned.
The location was pretty convenient. It was 2 blocks away from Milleneum Park and at the end of Michigan Avenue, which is part of the Magnifent Mile. There were plenty of shops and restaurants around the hotel.
A great place to stay!
I stayed at the Silversmith for 4 days in July. The hotel lobby was pretty and the lounge/guest area was huge and comfortable.
Our room was in an L-Shape. I had a King Size Bed (think it was California King), desk and couch in one part of the L Shape. The other side of the L was the half Kitchen (Miniature Fridge and wet bar) and HUGE bathroom. If anybody is curious, my room was 1012. My friend also stayed in 512, which had the same layout as mine.
One of the great things about the hotel is that they have "Dessert" hour from 9pm - 10pm from Mondays thru Thursday. And their dessert was impressive. When we went, they served three types of cake (two cheesecakes and a Carrot Cake) with cookies and coffee/tea.
The weird thing that I found about the Concierge is that when you check in, they prefer that you have your Confirmation number instead of providing your name for some reason. I sensed that they were really persistent with getting the Confirmation number before searching for your name on the system for some reason.
But my stay was great, in the middle of the loop, two blocks away from the Blue Line, next to great Pubs and shopping area.
I'm originally from Chicago, and when I go back I try to stay here whenever it's feasible. The rooms are nicely decorated and some have funky shapes - no standard cube, which I enjoy. Nice staff, great location for downtown activities, and it's next to the L so I can hop on and visit friends just about anywhere in the city without too much trouble.
Yes, some rooms don't have great views. But you are in Chicago - if you want a view, go visit the Sears Tower or Hancock Building.
Book your room online for best rates. And remember - you can always request a room on the non-L side when you check in.
Camped out here a few days over Thanksgiving. Staff was friendly and accommodating, room was just fine and overlooked a lovely brick wall (eh, not a deal breaker for me) ... but the interweb connection at this place was incredibly slow. It was as though I was nine again and impatiently waiting for dial up connection so I could do important things like visit the Ty website and look at Beanie Baby paraphernalia. Right. But there was the most amazing vintage typewriter in the lobby, I wished it was as easy to take as little bottles of hotel shampoo.
We stayed at this hotel for NYE. I was pleasantly surprised at how spacious our room was. It was cozy and comfortable and our bathroom was newly remodeled. Great location, just blocks from Millenium Park and steps away from State St. and Michigan Ave. We will definitely stay there again.
Clean, eco friendly, huge room, $89/night on orbitz = great stay
Location is great. Short walk to everything. Didn't hear the train at all and liked being near the stop.
I stayed here in April 2008, and it was really beautiful. I've been in many hotels throughout my life spanning from cheapies to luxe. I've also had experience in real estate, enough to know when a place is in good, clean shape and has great fixtures (I can't help but notice the little things). The ceilings were wonderfully high and the complimentary desserts in the lobby truly blew my mind. Amazing! I've paid three times the price for "luxury" hotels in Las Vegas that weren't even as nice as this. It is noisy if you sleep in a room beside the L train, but I stayed on the opposite side and slept peacefully. I'm coming back here some day!
five stars for the location - heart of the Loop and just a short walk to Millennium Park, the Art Institute and shopping.
one star for noise insulation - wanna be awakened to the sound of someone showering or flushing a toilet at 3AM? Stay here.
The staff is friendly enough. and the rooms are drably but comfortably furnished. but for over $200 per night, I expect a robe - a necessity when answering the door for room service.
The Crowne Plaza Silversmith is a classy hotel in the Loop, across from the Jewelers Row area. The comfortable interiors are reminiscent of the Prairie Style of architect Frank Lloyd Wright. Its main facade does face the "L" tracks, so you may get a good view but also an earful in the evening. Ada's is a decent downtown deli.
