Great place to stay near the McCormick convention
Great staff. David was 4stars and nothing less that superb. Friendly knowledgeable efficient. Always available. On the downside the shower was terrible. 3 weak steams of water out of the head left me wanting more. Also I was hot at night. No AC in April, I get it, but I sweltered.

2/10 Poor

No me vuelvo a hospedar en este hotel. La única vez que la cama estaba hecha fué cuando llegamos, luego de eso no la hicieron más... No limpiaron el cuarto ni un solo día, no cambiaron las bolsas de los basureros... Lo primeros dos dias en la mañana no había desayuno porque el refrigerador estaba dañado... En la reserva era un precio, luego, durante la semana me escribieron que les pagara en efectivo pero al final me cobraron $88 demás y no supe por qué fué... El parqueo es incomodo, no crean todo lo que ven en las fotografías.

Beautiful old mansion with beautiful renovated guest rooms. The neighborhood has gorgeous old houses as well and felt very safe walking at night. Only complaint would be bed frame is very creaky

Time travel to Chicago’s storied past.
A historic gem, beautifully preserved, in the heart of old Chicago. David looked after us so well and prepared a very nice breakfast. So much to do and see nearby, including the amazing Glessner House.

Loved it
Our stay at the wheeler mansion was an amazing experience. Didn’t feel like a hotel, it was more like a get away vacation.

6/10 Good

The building is exactly what you want it to be; a big old grandiose mansion. On the negative side however, the parking isn't obvious and it was almost impossible to understand the staff on the phone when I called and asked where to park. They charged me more than what Orbitz listed and when I asked them about it they blamed Orbitz and said they couldn't fix the price. Also, every chair in the building is horribly uncomfortable to sit in.

The restoration of this property is beautiful. So is the furniture. Our host, David, was very friendly and helpful. Our room with a fireplace was awesome. Everything was great. Celebrated 30 year anniversary with my wife.

Step back into history with all the modern comforts you expect in a luxury property. We loved the spacious living room, the lovely grounds, and the high ceilings throughout the house. It felt like we had they keys to our own mansion for three days! Just steps from the McCormick Place Convention Center, the Wheeler Mansion is a gracious antidote to staying in the soulless mega hotels attached to the convention center.

8/10 Very Good

Good: Stately and elegant facility, beautiful courtyard, friendly and accommodating grounds-keeper, excellent location for our purposes. Bad: TV remote didn't work, leaky faucet, toilet that would not flush, chair leg fell off when we tried to sit on it, smell of gas around the fire place required changing rooms. Conclusion: Restoration was exquisite. Maintenance will hopefully be next in line.

David was very friendly and extremely accommodating. We called to ask if we could park early and he was happy to accommodate us and get us in the room early. Room was very cute, service was excellent, morning breakfast consisted of fruit, yogurt, quiches and sausage. Not your typical depersonalized hotel experience which we loved. Highly recommend and would not hesitate to stay again when coming to Chicago!
