If not Doubletree by Hilton in O'Hare fully booked for the weekend, and that Hilton provides free shuttle to the airport, I probably wouldn't have chose Hilton.

And I thought I've got a high class hotel, HILTON..

I took a cab from Downtown Chicago, Union Station to the hotel. When I stepped in, it was buzzling with men in neck ties, and women in pretty dresses, but it was BUZZLING.. something I didn't expect for a 4 stars hotel.

I couldn't believe my ears and eyes when I made my way to my room, really. And there was no bottled water in the room so I asked for them to be sent. I didn't know I would be charged for that till I received the bill slipped in to the room from under the door. Seriously, they could have done better if they informed me that I would be charged first, not that I wouldn't need water if it's chargeable, but that's basic courtesy.

Cosy king sized bed

Standard lean work desk and TV

Neat and nice bathroom

Peter Thomas Roth toiletries

 I woke up the next morning to finally realise breakfast was not included in the room rate. I called the frontdesk to confirm too. Can't believe I made that mistake. And so I ordered room service.

U$24.49 (inclusive of taxes and gratuity) for this, kinda really expensive

There was nothing to shout for, for this hotel. The service was not exactly one of the best. It's like a buzzling cheap hotels.
