The Spotlight on ACME Hotel Company

Stylish, Tech-Savvy Boutique in the Heart of River North

ACME Hotel Company brings a bold, alternative vibe to downtown Chicago’s River North neighborhood. Just two blocks from the Magnificent Mile and walking distance to major music venues, this boutique hotel is all about mixing high-tech amenities with local flavor. With modern rooms, funky decor, and thoughtful extras like complimentary morning coffee delivery and mobile WiFi hotspots, it’s a great home base for a music-filled weekend.

Why Concert-goers love it

Concert fans love ACME for its unbeatable location—you're within walking or quick rideshare distance to several of Chicago’s iconic venues. The hotel’s River North setting keeps you close to the action, but inside, it’s surprisingly quiet, letting you recharge after a big night. With a 3:00 PM check-in and free WiFi on the go, it's easy to settle in before or after the show. Plus, the vibe is super welcoming to music lovers of all kinds.

Who this Hotel is great for

  • Groups of friends looking for a stylish crash pad near bars and venues
  • Solo travelers seeing a favorite artist and wanting a safe, fun base
  • Couples making a weekend of it with concerts and Chicago eats
  • Fans wanting quiet post-show downtime in a comfy bed
  • Budget-conscious music fans who still want boutique vibes and amenities

Food and Drink Options

The on-site West Town Bakery is perfect for grabbing a bite before heading out—or a sweet treat after. Breakfast is available (and forgivingly late), and there's complimentary custom-brewed coffee delivered to your room each morning. The Berkshire Room cocktail lounge serves up craft drinks and small bites well into the evening. Room service isn't 24/7, but the location means plenty of late-night eats are just a short walk away.

Nightlife Options

With the Berkshire Room right downstairs, you don't have to go far for a nightcap. The River North neighborhood is packed with bars, clubs, and lounges, from laid-back speakeasies to buzzing rooftops. Whether you're looking to keep the night going or wind down with a local brew, the options are close and plentiful.

What People Say

Guests rave about the hotel’s trendy decor and tech-forward rooms, noting the big smart TVs and surprisingly spacious layouts. The location gets top marks for being close to both music venues and nightlife, but still offering a quiet place to sleep. The free WiFi hotspot and in-room coffee delivery are small touches that make a big difference, especially for those on the go.

Areas for Improvement

Some guests mention that the rooms are on the smaller side, especially if you're traveling with lots of gear or in a group. While there's no full-service restaurant on-site, the surrounding area makes up for it with tons of food options. Parking can be pricey—pretty typical for downtown Chicago.

The Bottom Line

ACME Hotel Company is a funky, friendly boutique stay that hits the sweet spot for concert-goers—close to the action, stylish to stay in, and quiet enough to recover in.

Meh

Liked: I've stayed there before and it was better than this time. The location is good and some of the staff were helpful. The shower is good. Having a good bar at the property is also nice.
Disliked: Room: The room had 2 windows, but was very dark. One window overlooked a parking garage and the other overlooked a small area surrounded by 4 buildings, so it, too, was dark. The lighting in the room wasn't bright, which made doing make-up difficult. The beds were too firm and there was no counter space in the bathroom. The room wasn't very clean as there was debris on the rug and in the bathroom. Staff: While some staff were helpful, others seemed to have an attitude. The times that something went wrong - the elevator broke and our keys wouldn't work - there was no apology from anyone when we spoke with the front desk.

Decent hotel in a great...

Liked: For the value and the location, it seemed that the hotel was worth it. It wasn't in the best shape, but my room was very clean and in decent shape. Also, the bar downstairs was great. Quiet, but up beat, a great place to go to catch up with friends. It also had a great selection. I have a serious bug phobia and didn't see any during my stay.
Disliked: It could have been in better shape, but for the cost at that location it seemed to be a very reasonable compromise. I stayed for a conference, so I was pretty much there to just sleep and it was worth it for that.

Friendly staff in hip property...

Liked: Liked the design concept.
Disliked: Air conditioning was erratic and messed with our sleep. Reserved city view room but got transferred to a room with a view of a cinder block wall.
