We very much appreciate your rating of your stay at Sofitel Chicago Magnificent Mile. Thank you for sharing your experience, and we hope your next visit will be as pleasant as the previous one. We are looking forward to welcoming you back to Sofitel Chicago Magnificent Mile very soon.

4 out of 5
This is our third time staying at the Sofitel Chicago, and we always have an enjoyable experience. The employees are friendly and helpful, rooms are comfortable and luxurious. Winter, who works the lobby and front desk area, is an amazing employee and will always go out of his way to see how your day is and ensure you are satisfied with your stay. There were a few minor maintenance-related details that could be improved upon, including a slow draining shower (there was an inch or so of standing water by the end of a short shower) and loose electrical outlet covers. We will definitely stay here again on future trips.
