I really liked the ambience! It is a charming boutique, beautifully decorated and landscaped hotel. An oasis in a lovely neighborhood! The room was well maintained with fresh artwork and I liked the layout. Amenities were nice and all the staff I interacted with were pleasant and professional. The breakfast was plentiful and appealingly displayed. The neighborhood is very walkable with small shops and tempting restaurants and Wrigley Field is less than a mile away. Also good local bus and taxi service.

My daughter and her boyfriend live nearby on Stratford Place and were expecting a baby in the middle of September.

In a previous visit I noticed the hotels’ convenience to their apartment and so confirmed a stay there.

My daughter did a sit visit and found it to be a bit dated but adequate at the time.

I reserved an extended stay and picked it because it afforded the proximity to her that I needed in spite of that.

When I checked in it appears they were in the midst of an upgrade. Which was refreshing.

My room was well appointed with two tv’s ample seating and a work space and aside from the noisy air unit was quite comfortable. I had to turn the unit off because it was hard to sleep or work with the humming. The wifi worked well allowing me to remain connected to the office.

The housekeeper was efficient and kind. All staff encountered were kind and tried to be helpful.

The ladies at the front desk offered recommendations on various items but need to work on accuracy to minimize inconvenience, for example- the post office I was sent to did not offer counter service and was only a receiving center and one of the hair dressers I was sent to did not offer service for black hair. This did not impact my visit as I was able to figure out what I needed on my own. It adds value when you can trust the advice from the team who live and work in the area.

I enjoyed the breakfast ladies who made the coffee and stocked the food and also enjoyed chatting with the maintenance man who came to check on my ac unit.

I appreciated the convenience to most things as well.

We have a beautiful grandson now. I will definitely be back and highly recommend a stay at Best Western Plus, Hawthorne Terrace.

Completely remodeled and like new.
Best location on northside especially if you are headed to Wrigley field.
Ann Sathers across the street and Angelinas 5 blocks away for great food.
Courtyard at Hawthorne is perfect hangout for morning coffee.
