Hotel Julian

Excellent hotel to stay. Right on Michigan Ave and close to either Museum Campus or shopping on the "Mag Mile." Hotel was very clean, beds and pillows were super comfortable. Did not eat/drink at ALK, because we had other reservations, but would try it next time. The hotel staff were all very helpful, kind and gave you the feeling they were glad you were staying at their hotel. If you are looking for something unique, pick up tickets to Drunk Shakespeare. Production is right behind Hotel Julian, and is an epic comedy show you do not want to miss.

Very pleased with our stay. Room was well designed, clean, and comfortable. Staff were friendly, professional, and helpful. Location is ideal and close to many major tourist sites.

Everything looks brand new including the room. Staff very friendly and helpful.

I always think it is strange that hotels charge you a resort fee or in this case an "urban fee" you think you are paying a price and turns out it is more since there is this fee that is not optional but it wasnt in the original quoted price. this fee could had been in the price of the room, and no one would be the wiser. Now that I got that out of my system, the hotel is very nice, and it is literaly less that one block from the milenial park where the famous "bean" (that is not a bean) is. The staff at the hotel are very nice and helpfull as well.

Service level has degraded since my last visit earlier this year. After three requests (including one to a manager) I still couldn't get the bed made. Room furnishings & fixtures reflect a goal of cost cutting rather than providing an exceptional guest experience. Additionally, the walls are very thin, could hear occupants of adjoining room having conversation at a normal level - they were not being loud. Great location, but other than that, Hotel Julian is mediocre at best.
