    Nothing. Everything was top-notch.

    Fantastic room in terms of size, cleanliness, comfort, overall condition, decor and amenities. Huge walk-in dressing area, bathroom with two sinks, separate powder room, and the ability to shut off the living room / sofa bed area with the sliding pocket doors for privacy. Good lighting that could be adjusted to suit time of day/ mood. We also enjoyed the breakfasts (excellent food), the gym and the pool/ spa facilities. Exactly the experience we needed after a couple of 'dud' hotels earlier in our travels, and also a very nice welcome from the staff --- especially the amenity kits provided when they realised our luggage had been diverted to a different city and I was about to burst into tears!

    A genuine five-star welcome in the heart of Chicago—promise kept by The Peninsula.

    Perhaps it was due to a particularly busy period, but we were surprised to learn that it was necessary to make a reservation in order to have breakfast in the restaurant. It was the first time we experienced the need to reserve a spot for breakfast, despite being hotel guests.

    The Peninsula is a true five-star hotel. The room comfort is excellent, with great attention to detail. The service staff is outstanding. Our suite was spacious and beautifully appointed. Breakfast and the restaurant’s location were both excellent. The pool on the 20th floor is large and offers a magnificent view of the city, with every possible comfort. Among the best five-star hotels I have stayed in. Highly recommended.

    The food smell in the room.

    Food was excellent; room service exceptional; everyone was quick and courteous. The only issue was every morning and dinnertime there was a pervasive food smell in the room.

    Can’t think of anything we disliked

    You couldn't find anything to complain about. The room and bathroom were spacious, and the bed was the most comfortable I've ever had (and we travel frequently!). The staff throughout the hotel were incredibly friendly. The breakfast was excellent, and there was a wonderful atmosphere in both the bar and the Chinese restaurant.
