I had mixed feelings about my stay. While the location is fantastic, right near Lincoln Park, I found the room conditions to be very disappointing. The service, although decent, did not make up for the overall lack of upkeep. The rooftop views were the highlight, but I left feeling underwhelmed by the hotel's offerings.

I had a mixed experience at the Hotel Lincoln. The lobby and rooftop bar are beautifully designed, offering stunning views, but the rooms left a lot to be desired, especially in terms of cleanliness and size. The location near Lincoln Park is fantastic, making it easy to explore the area, but the lack of modern amenities was disappointing. Overall, while the hotel has charm, it could use some significant updates.

My stay at this hotel was quite disappointing, as I encountered a number of issues during my visit. The location is great with close proximity to local attractions, but the rooms and facilities did not meet my expectations. Although the staff was friendly, the overall condition of the hotel seemed outdated and in need of serious renovations. I would not recommend staying here without significant improvements.

I had such an enjoyable experience at the hotel, primarily due to the fantastic rooftop views and the vibrant atmosphere. The staff were genuinely kind and made my stay feel special. However, I did find the room a bit on the smaller side and faced some noise issues from the air conditioning. Overall, the charm of the hotel and its great location near Lincoln Park made it worthwhile for a lovely getaway.

During my stay at the Hotel Lincoln, I enjoyed the vibrant location near Lincoln Park, but was disappointed by some aspects of the property. The rooms were clean, though on the smaller side, and the rooftop bar provided a nice atmosphere. Unfortunately, the service at the restaurant was slow, and unexpected fees like the resort fee left a sour taste in my mouth. With many options in Chicago, this hotel has its perks but may not be worth the price for everyone.
