How good is this hotel??
 
I have booked Hyatt Regency Mccormick Place, which in Martin Luther King Drive for my trip to Chicago.
Is it a nice hotel?? )i read some bad reviews on it later :( really concerned about it.
Also how close is it to all the tourist spots like the Navy Pier, Sears towers etc??
Thanks.

Have you looked at the website for the hotel? http://mccormickplace.hyatt.com/property/index.jhtml

It has directions and maps and information about the surrounding area. It looks pretty central to a lot of great things like the Field Museum. If it's not walking distance you're in luck becuase Chicago has a great mass transit system. As far as how nice it is, it's a newer Hyatt...how bad can it be? Different people are going to have different experiences....

Thanks Sandy! What you said is true! people have different exp?? i was just stressing out for no reason! And as you said, if it is a new Hyatt, i am sure it will have some decent standard. i am glad that you told me that it is near to some prime spots, majes me feel that i did a good booking :)

Although I don't know anything about the hotel, the location is out of the way for most Chicago stuff. It is close to the Field Museum, Planetarium and Aquarium.

The hotel is a business hotel/convention hotel. It is not a good choice for a vacation- it's not close to the tourist spots. I'd advise changing your reservation if you can.

Ditto -- not a good location, not on any public transport lines, not walkable anywhere. Change your location.
