The Spotlight on Holiday Inn Hotel & Suites Chicago - Downtown By IHG

Comfy Convenience in the Heart of Downtown Chicago

Modern and welcoming, the Holiday Inn Hotel & Suites Chicago - Downtown blends comfort and convenience just blocks from the iconic Willis Tower. Located in the heart of the city, this hotel offers easy access to popular neighborhoods like Greektown and the UIC campus, with public transport right nearby to whisk you off to other must-see spots like Navy Pier and the Magnificent Mile.

The hotel features comfortable rooms, a seasonal outdoor pool, and a modern fitness center—ideal for recharging after a high-energy night out.

Why Concert-goers love it

This hotel is a solid pick for fans planning to hit multiple music venues around Chicago. You're only a short ride away from key concert locations, and thanks to the nearby public transit, getting back late isn't a hassle. The hotel is also tucked just far enough from the busiest streets to offer a quieter night's sleep after the encore. With 3:00 PM check-in and a generous 12:00 PM checkout, it’s easy to sleep in and still have time to recover.

Who this Hotel is great for

  • Groups of friends looking for a central crash pad close to the action
  • Solo travelers catching that once-in-a-lifetime tour stop
  • Couples making a weekend of shows and sightseeing
  • Fans who want a quiet comeback to decompress post-show
  • Budget-conscious music lovers who still want a clean, reliable stay

Food and Drink Options

While the hotel doesn’t offer 24/7 room service, it does have an on-site restaurant and bar, and you're just a short walk from Greektown’s wide range of late-night eats. After a long night, you’ll appreciate the available breakfast options the next morning.

Nightlife Options

You’ll find bars and lounges within easy walking distance, especially in nearby Greektown. Want to keep the vibe going after your show? There are plenty of local haunts for a nightcap or two. While there’s no live music on-site, you’re never far from the next act.

What People Say

Guests love the location, calling it “super convenient” for exploring the city and attending events. The friendly staff and clean rooms frequently get shout-outs in reviews. The pool is a bonus in warmer months, and many note the surprisingly quiet atmosphere for such a central spot.

Areas for Improvement

Some guests mention that the decor feels a bit dated in places, and the pool is only open seasonally, so don’t pack your swimsuit in winter. Parking is available but comes with a fee—worth knowing if you're driving in.

The Bottom Line

A practical and comfortable base for concert-goers who want to stay central without sacrificing a good night’s rest.

A great stay! We booked the hotel wanting something close to the United Center for an event we were attending. Honestly, we were a little leery because the cost so was so reasonable and it was so close to the venue - we thought it was too good to be true, but we took a chance and ended up being extremely impressed. The hotel was very clean and the staff...unbelievable - they were very friendly, courteous and helpful. Loved the fact that there was a restaurant right downstairs; convenient and reasonable parking, and just a little over a mile from the United Center. Would definitely stay here again!

Liked: Clean, friendly staff, great rates.

Liked: The hotel was o.k. It was quiet, clean and the beds were comfortable.
Disliked: The price of the room was high and did not include breakfast. The streets in the area we unwalkable due to construction so even though we were close to some things we could not walk there.

Wouldn’t hesitate to stay here...

Liked: Proximity to UIC was excellent. Room was clean and quiet. Queen size beds (a huge plus) were comfortable. On-site parking was appreciated.
Disliked: Bathroom was clean, but quite small for four people to move around in and get ready for the day.
