Which Chicago Courtyard?
 

Hi - I'm looking at a 1 bed Queen Room at the Mag Mile Courtyard or a King room at the Courtyard Downtown on Hubbard for the same price. I'm not too concerned with the bed size itself but I'm wondering if the 1 bed Queen rooms are very small since that Courtyard also has 1 bed King rooms for a higher rate. From what I've read the Mag Mile Courtyard is nicer but if anyone can compare the rooms (and water pressure if you know) I'd really appreciate it. Also I could save a few more bucks and stay at the Fairfield, any comments on that compared to one of the Courtyards? Thanks!

TTT :)

Third try topping this so apologies if it ends up having multiple posts!

Topping one more time ... I think its going to be the Mag Mile Courtyard based on comments I got posting on flyertalk but I'd still love to hear from any fodorites that have stayed in these rooms. Thanks!

Ok - I decided to use points and I have a reservation now at the Mag Mile Courtyard for a king room ... any requests I should make for side of the hotel, floor to be on etc? Any recent reviews?

Also - I'm interested in the restaurant Hot Chocolate in Bucktown ... anyone been? Is the area worth a visit? Wuold like to go for lunch but we have limited time and there is so much we want to see!

Thanks - Mary

I haven't been to Hot Chocolate but if you go to www.metromix.com and do a search for Hot Chocolate there are several user reviews

And here's a review on Center Stage

Thanks Kristi. I'd seen the metromix reviews but that CenterStage website looks great ... I'll be spending some time researching there! :)
