Good not great.
Was a very nice hotel! And room staff just need to do a better job of cleaning! Trash and clothes left under the couch by previous guest. Walls had dirt spots all over the it. Water in bathroom had a hard time draining. Other than that it was an ok stay!

Great view and location. Spacious and clean.
Great view and location. Spacious and clean. We loved the pool, roof top hot tub with city and lake views, game room and attached restaurant. Auto-Check in was smooth and easy. Don’t pay the exorbitant valet parking. Use a parking app like spot hero or ParkWhiz. The garage by the 7-11 (1E 8th st) is a bargain or the surface lot at 835 S Wabash Ave. Unless there’s a bears game, the rates are pretty good.

Excellent every year
I have stayed at Sentral for several years in a row. Year after year, they continue to be excellent. The front desk people are always kind and helpful. The apartment is clean, with everything I need. The 7th floor lounge is beautiful with a great gym. It's my home when I'm in Chicago. Thanks!

Business/Family Vacation
We stayed stayed at the Sentral for a business/family trip. This hotel is beautiful and accommodating. Sandra at the front desk was the sweetest and made check in a breeze, even allowing us to check in early. The room was clean, however there was a burn mark on the kitchen floor and it appeared as it was not vacuumed. Otherwise the room was wonderful, we would definitely stay here again!

Great location! About 1.5 miles from McCormick
Fabulous stay! This is right near the Hilton Chicago on South Michigan. I was there with a colleague for a conference. We each had our own bathroom & bedroom, plus a shared living area with a full kitchen, TV, & couch. Bed was super comfortable, water pressure in shower was excellent, & very clean. You CANNOT beat the price! It’s a little over a mile from McCormick. We will definitely stay again.

Stay at Sentral
Our late checkin was easy. The room had amazing views of Grant Park/Navy Pier out one window and the city from another window. Apartment was spacious with good facilities. Bed was comfy. Only downside was that the shower had low pressure, but for us that was not a major. Location is really good with most things within walking distance.

This was an amazing place to stay with access to everything great Jim pool and hot tub so many internal activities really felt taken care of. And right in the heart of downtown so near everything very walkable or just minutes away from the train.
