The Spotlight on La Quinta Inn & Suites by Wyndham Chicago Downtown

Modern Comfort in the Heart of Downtown Chicago

Contemporary and convenient, La Quinta Inn & Suites by Wyndham Chicago Downtown is a sleek stay in the Financial District, just two blocks from the iconic Willis Tower. With spacious rooms, free WiFi, and a full hot breakfast included, this hotel offers great value without sacrificing comfort or location. Whether you're in town for a concert or a weekend getaway, you'll be steps from Chicago's top attractions and public transport.

Why Concert-goers love it

This hotel’s central location makes it super walkable to multiple venues and transit stops—just three blocks from the Washington/Wells CTA rail stop, which connects easily to the United Center and other concert spots. Rooms feature microwaves and fridges for late-night snacks, and the 24-hour fitness center means you can wind down after a show. The 12:00 pm checkout is a big win after a late night out.

Who this Hotel is great for

- Groups of friends looking to share a convenient base
- Solo travelers catching a can't-miss artist
- Couples planning a music-filled weekend
- Fans who value a quiet, comfy room to recharge
- Budget-conscious music lovers wanting great value in the city center

Food and Drink Options

You’ll start your day right with the complimentary hot breakfast, served after most late nights. While there’s no on-site restaurant, each room includes a microwave and mini-fridge, great for reheating leftovers or storing snacks. In-room dining is also available if you’re winding down after a high-energy show. Plus, you’re within walking distance of dozens of eateries and coffee spots.

Nightlife Options

Though the hotel itself doesn’t offer live music or a bar, you're just steps from some of Chicago’s best downtown lounges, rooftop bars, and pubs. Whether you're looking for a pre-show cocktail or a post-concert nightcap, you won’t have to go far.

What People Say

Guests love the hotel’s central location, saying it’s “perfect for exploring downtown” and “easy to get to any venue.” Many reviews highlight the clean, spacious rooms, friendly staff, and the bonus of a free, filling breakfast before check-out. It's often described as a “great value” and a “quiet retreat” in the heart of the city.

Areas for Improvement

Some guests mention that while the location is super convenient during the week, the area can feel a bit quieter on weekends due to its Financial District setting. Others noted that there’s no on-site bar, so if a hotel happy hour is your thing, you may need to explore nearby.

The Bottom Line

Easy access to venues, quiet downtown comfort, and included breakfast make La Quinta Inn & Suites by Wyndham Chicago Downtown a top pick for concert-goers looking to stay central and stress-free.

Disappointing - 2.0 out of 5

Sarah K, Chicago, visiting Auditorium Theatre Tue, 26 March 2024

At check in we were told a charge of an additional $150 would be put on our credit card for a deposit and would be returned after our visit. If I’m already paying for my room and my credit card is on file, why is that charge going through BEFORE any billable issues? If that was in the booking information it has to have been in the tiniest fine print possible. We were also not told that the breakfast provided needed the ticket given at check in that had our room and wifi information on it in exchange for the meal. We ended up leaving the hotel to find a meal elsewhere.

Liked: Proximity to the event we were in town for.
Disliked: Front desk communication.
