Found Hotel Chicago

Top choice in Chicago


Breezy Found Hotel joins the elevated hostel/casual-hotel brigade. The 60 rooms come in several configurations, including four-bed dorms with sturdy (and quite comfy) bunk beds, and private rooms with twin or queen beds – all with en-suite bathrooms. Rooms are small and plain, but who cares? The price is often right, and the common areas are where the fun is.

There's a TV lounge with whimsical, garage-sale decor and board games, a communal kitchen and a popular karaoke bar in the building's basement.
