Best experience downtown Chicago so far! So walkable to shopping and the amazing Riverwalk right outside the hotel. Angel at Check-In was so helpful and welcoming. Juan at the Chi Bar so incredibly friendly and offered tips for our morning timing to get ahead of the crowd & enjoy the river dyeing. The room was so spacious and the bed so comfortable. We requested a river view room and it was just so scenic of beautiful Chicago. The breakfast was a delicious variety of Sweet and Savory including all the favorites but especially delicious was the Salmon & Capers & the warm sauced bread pudding. Starbucks ladies so friendly and high energy. I enjoyed my Starbucks in the pool room on the 7th floor and was so excited to see out the window the prettiest view of Lake Michigan combined with the Riverwalk. The pool & dry sauna both clean and relaxing. Dinner at Shula’s was fantastic! A seat with a view of the city lights, service was excellent and the food was outstanding. We had the oysters and cowboy steaks cooked perfectly.. Jennifer & William at checkout were so happy to hear our time was well spent and answered any questions I had about my bill and reminded me to get my souvenir from the gift shop. Thank you Sheraton Grand we will be back! Read less

My husband and I were flying in from FL to celebrate our Grandchildren’s Birthdays, who were coming up from downstate for a weekend in the City. I wanted to plan just a little surprise party for them and was FORTUNATE enough to happen on to a Guest Service employee, Ms. SUZANNE, who was a WONDERFUL help. She facilitated the balloon company( Party city), the bakery for the cake(Paris Baguette-owner, Sherry), a refrigerator (for the cake) Champagne and chocolate covered strawberries- that the GRANDS thought were the BEST! She was able to upgrade our room to have more space for the PAR TAY and even gave each child a “treat bag” from the Sheraton! AND Otto, the Bellman, facilitated delivery of said items to the room for the SURPRISE! To say that Suzanne went OVER AND ABOVE in her guest service role is an UNDERSTATEMENT. She also called the day before our arrival to reiterate the plans and the day after we got home to make sure everything was satisfactory. It was like having the BEST PRIVATE PARTY PLANNER. The hotel staff was ALL VERY helpful and the DOORMAN was also extraordinary‼️ This superior HOSPITALITY will bring us back to this hotel. Thanks again to Suzanne and the Sheraton- You are treating your guests with CARE! PS- adult children also loved having Starbucks on site AND the quickest most efficient room service! Read less

We Called the day before make sure everything is ok it was. The day of our flight got canceled then rebooked then that got canceled. Called the Sheraton Grand Chicago Riverwalk to re schedule the reservations, and they told they could not reschedule the room or get my money back that it was my problem. Very bad Service

This year we decide to do something different for New Year's and hosted in a hotel. Invite the family in from out of town and celebrated it. Chicago-style so we booked at the Sheraton and draw a surprise. It was nothing but the website on Priceline offer there was not a kitchenette within the room. The chandelier over the dining room table was 30 and it only had one light bulb. The wine cooler freezer in the bedroom smells so bad that what it open up it just always smells so bad. It was horrible y'all and for the amount of money that we spent it was horrible. They promised that they were bring up microwave and a refrigerate hub which they never did called down. You got attitude at the front desk. It was just very unprofessional. I mean very unprofessional. I won recommend this hotel for anyone not if you trying to impress family and have a nice elegant gathering. Next time I pay the extra $2 or $300 in go back to the reds cuz it's worth it. Don't wish your money here. It looks can be deceiving. This hotel takes number one. It offers nothing but the riverwalk the rooms are outdated. It's not worth it Read less
