Fodor's Expert Review Avenue Crowne Plaza Hotel and Suites Chicago Downtown
160 E. Huron, Chicago, Illinois, 60611, USA
Editor's Note: This location is no longer in operation.
Just yards away from Michigan Avenue, this kid-friendly, high-tech property has pullout leather couches in its suites and zebra-striped chairs in every room. There's an outdoor pool on the 40th floor. Ask for a room on the tech floor; they're a little more expensive, but come with Macs and color printers. The popular kids' rooms come with colorful bedding, Wii gaming systems, Baby Einstein toys, and rubber duckies for the tub: these rooms go fast, so book in advance.
PROS
- the rooms are generously sized considering the location
- the staff is accommodating
- great concierge
CONS
- elevators and pool are small
- you might hear sirens, as the hotel is next to a hospital
