Hard Rock Hotel Chicago Review

We're not huge fans of the ubiquitous restaurant chain, but the hotel—flashy, loud, and packed with plasma TVs—has our approval. Set within the 40-story Carbide and Carbon Building, it touts modern rooms adorned with rock-and-roll paraphernalia and a brilliant dining concept called China Grill. Ask for a tower room, offering striking views of Michigan Avenue, Millennium Park, and the Chicago River. Complimentary issues of Time Out Chicago keep guests in the know about what's happening in the city.

    it's hard to explain what makes a great hotel, but it's not hard to explain what doesn't, the staff ignored me, nothing worked including TV in restaurant, had more fun with homeless lady up the street than in this property, was cool being on "Prince" floor but all in all, i would rather have been in Minneapolis.
