An overall good experience, they also allowed a late check out. Greeted at the door and close to food and shopping in the Hyde Park area.

"Job Well Done"

Reviewed January 26, 2026 NEW

The front desk and engineering staff went above and beyond to make my experience at the hotel an exemplary one. In additional to being professional and courteous, they addressed my every need expeditiously; and I tend to have a lot of them. One in particular was when my rental car would not start, so the front desk clerk made multiple calls and contacts to aid me with my troubles. One of her contacts were to engineering staff members, Gavan and an unidentified African American gentleman, who did all they could to get me on my way. In addition, all the workers were friendly and hospitable. There were many smiles and greetings in passing, whether on the elevator or lobby area. They should be commended for a job well done.

"Stellar Service"

Reviewed January 18, 2026 NEW

Everything at SOPHY was top notch from start to finish. From the time you enter the building the decor, artwork and hotel aesthetic are all absolutely stunning. The rooms are well appointed- and we really appreciated the record player and comfy robes. Now to the real star of the show at this hotel - the service. In today’s world as a frequent traveler, I often leave hotel experiences feeling like service was an afterthought. This was not the case at all and in fact, service felt like the number one priority at Sophy. The staff was exceptional. From housekeeping to the restaurant staff to the front desk, all interactions felt very warm and intentional. Once I was able to speak with the manager of operations, I understood why. The team is clearly very expertly led by Teshia, who creates a very welcoming environment for all and personally went above and beyond to ensure our stay was perfect. We will definitely be staying here again when returning to the Windy City.

Excellent whiskey selection. Excellent mixologist and excellent customer service all held by Teshia who warmly and intentionally saw that patron’s needs were met.

"Lovely time"

Reviewed January 15, 2026 NEW

It took me a bit but I had to absolutely leave a review from my experience. It was truly an enjoyable getaway and highlighted by Alexis! Just an overall treasure. People like her make places and moments memorable and she’s definitely heading in an amazing direction. The atmosphere was just what I needed and greatly balanced. Will definitely be back when the weather and I agree a bit more. Lol. Thank you all!
