What People Are Saying About Allegro Chicago

Just as "allegro" in music calls for a brisk tempo, the Hotel Allegro's lobby establishes an upbeat vibe for its guests. With a stimulating clash of vibrant colors and striking patterns, accented by modern and vintage-style furniture, the entryway immediately sets this hotel apart from commonplace corporate lodging. Guest rooms repeat the lobby's Chinese-red and cobalt-blue hues and feature iPod docking stations for cranking the tunes. Beds are outfitted with fluffy down comforters and a mound of lush pillows. Bathrooms are stocked with Aveda bath items. The hotel hosts complimentary coffee in…

Okay, but expected more

We stayed at the Hotel Allegro when going to see Mary Poppins at the connected Cadillac Palace Theater.
Before arriving, I had to call the concierge numerous times to get him to help me find an appropriate restaurant. Eventually booked us a reservation at 312 Chicago, which turned out wonderfully, but he was unaware that the hotel restaurant had a children's menu.
From the moment we stepped out of the car, until we got in to leave, the staff treated my daughter like she was a princess and their job was to cater to her.
I asked for a room on a higher floor and only received an 8th floor room. The outlet in the bathroom didn't work and we had difficulty turning on the shower.
The beds were very comfortable and our stay was short and sweet. I'm not sure I would return to the Hotel Allegro, but I'm not sure I wouldn't either.
- Pros: Four year old daughter treated like a princess
- Cons: Some issues with things working as they should

Great location, comfortable beds
by bc3 at Citysearch
This was our third stay at a Kimpton, and the hotel chain continues to deliver. Very mod, stylish lobby & hotel room. Great location near the Chicago el.
VERY large room, extremely comfortable bed (we slept until 10 every day!). Our suite had a fold out couch as well as a king bed - not always easy to find a good sleeping arrangement for 3 people. 2 armoirs with TVs. Very comfortable bed & great down pillows. Staff was very courteous. Excellent closet space. Room was quiet & had good views.
Free wine happy hour 5-6 pm every day. The lobby can be quite a happening spot during this time.
Only cons - virtually no counter or shelf space in the bath room. No vent either. Also, desk should have a mirror so that you don't have to put on your makeup in a steamy bathroom. These hotels are obviously designed by men!
- Pros: Great location, very comfortable bed & pillows
- Cons: Lack of counter space in bath, lack of mirrors outside bath
