I've had the good fortune of staying at the Palmer House for many occasions, and my wedding reception was held there.
It is a classic, beautiful, old Chicago hotel with nice rooms and great facilities. If you haven't been there, check out the website for some good photos. The service is world class in every respect, and it's a great life experience to visit this classic place.
If you're planning a wedding there, it's worth every penny. The food was amazing. I still have great memories of the tasting, and all the delicious things that the guests didn't even see. The service of dinner was prefect, the campaign was great, and the cake was exactly what we wanted. They went out of their way to handle every detail, and I didn't have a single glitch come up on the big day. The room they gave us to stay in - the honeymoon suite - was beyond words. The suite was just what we needed to spread out and relax after the party.
