This Loop hotel opened in March of 1998 in the 1897 Silversmith Building. It is designated a Historic Landmark, and the moment you walk into its Arts & Crafts-inspired lobby you'll feel transported to an earlier time. The abundance of polished wood is particularly appealing. This beauty sits right o...

Top Notch - user review
My husband and I stayed at the Silversmith for 4 nights, and were very impressed. We stayed in a suite, away from the EL and it was extremely quiet. The bathroom had a marble sink with lots of countertop space. Room furnishings felt more homey than most hotels quietly elegant. Enjoyed the compliment...

A diamond in the rough, the Silversmith Hotel was a most pleasant discovery in downtown Chicago! The hotel was conveniently located for the touristy vacation I had planned. We walked to the Sears Tower, Institute of Art, Grant Park, and many other locations. The interior of the hotel looked brand ne...

Clean, nice lobby, not like the grand hotels of Chicago, but Frank Lloyd Wright styled. The large, clean rooms were similar. Light colored mission style furniture and very high ceilings made the huge rooms even bigger. Directly across the street from an el stop and a couple of blocks from millennium...

Don't rely on the outside appearance. The l train tracks are right above the street outside the hotel, and it was hard to find the entrance even when walking. However, everything above the ground floor was great. Rooms were spacious, high ceilings, oak trim and very well maintained. Staff was fun an...

Great historical building located on Jeweler's Row just 30 steps from the El train station at Madison. Room was a bit too small and cramped for my tastes, but it was very comfortable and quiet, with lots of extras aimed at assisting a good night's sleep. In the end, the hotel went beyond its 3 stars...

New, clean, but totally lacks personality. They made this so neutral that it is neutered. No art, nothing interesting to look at and so very unmemorable.
