If you are planning a trip to Chicago, it’s worth considering whether a three-star hotel is the best option for you. While three-star hotels may be less expensive than higher-rated hotels, there are several reasons why opting for a four or five-star hotel may be the better choice.
First, three-star hotels may not always be as clean or well-maintained as their higher-rated counterparts. Additionally, the staff at three-star hotels may not be as knowledgeable about the local area or be as accommodating as staff at four or five-star hotels.
Finally, three-star hotels often offer fewer amenities than their higher-rated counterparts. This can include things like a smaller pool, fewer food and beverage options, and fewer on-site services.
Given all of these factors, it’s often worth spending a bit more to stay at a four or five-star hotel when travelling to Chicago.
