St. Clair Hotel Chicago || Our Review

If you are looking for an affordable hotel with access to all that is Chicago, look no further than the St. Clair Hotel Chicago!  Only steps away from the best shopping and eating that Chicago has to offer!

We have had the pleasure of staying at almost all of the nicest hotels in Chicago.  But, may of those stays can come with a hefty cost. And, if you’re much like Shawn and I, we don’t end up spending a ton of time in our room, but instead enjoying all that the city has to offer us.

Earlier this month, we had the opportunity to partner with The St. Clair Hotel and Babblebox for a little shopping spree staycation here in the city.  If you are looking for a stay here in Chicago – just steps away from some of the most iconic shopping and eating Chicago has to offer, I cannot recommend St. Clair Hotel Chicago enough.

In today’s post, we will share why we love The St. Clair Hotel, great places to eat in the area, and who can forget all of the incredible shopping 🙂

  1.  I have been looking for affordable hotel places where I can spend a week of nights with. Thanks to this, I was able to have a reservation at a hotel that does not cost too much but fairs the services being offered. Wow, this one is really helpful. I was able to see more of the interior of the hotel, making me not regret that I made such a decision. What’s more, I can even bring my fur baby to my room! This is exciting!
