About this place The Talbott Hotel

The Talbott Hotel is an upscale boutique hotel on East Delaware Place, a block west of North Michigan Avenue, in the Gold Coast and Streeterville area rather than River North. It is a mainstream, gay-friendly hotel, not a gay venue, aimed at travellers who want a quieter, more traditional property close to the Magnificent Mile shops. The Water Tower, Oak Street Beach and the restaurants along Rush Street are all within a few minutes' walk. Boystown, the main gay district, is about 15 minutes north by taxi or the Red Line from Chicago Avenue. The website on file is outdated, so book via the hotel's current site or a booking platform.

We decided to stay at this hotel with my family because of its location, and it turned out to be one of the worst hotel experiences I have ever had! The management at this hotel is unbelievably incompetent and disrespectful. We were incorrectly charged due to a mistake THEY made, and when I tried to resolve the issue, the manager made me wait in the lobby for over 45 minutes. After keeping me waiting that entire time, he simply left the building without ever speaking to me. No apology, no accountability, no attempt to resolve the situation professionally. The staff showed complete disregard for guests and their concerns. I have never experienced such poor management and customer service at any hotel before. If anything goes wrong during your stay, do not expect anyone in management to help you! DO NOT STAY HERE! There are far better hotels in Chicago that actually respect their guests.

Great hotel overall. Excellent food at Laurel, friendly staff, great location. My only wish would be a more functional chair in the room for business travelers.
