"Highly recommend!"
TripAdvisor user rating 5.0 out of 5

From the moment we arrived, our experience at this hotel was exceptional. The property itself is beautiful, clean, and welcoming, but what truly made our stay unforgettable was the service – especially from the manager, Alexis. The restaurant staff were attentive without being intrusive, and the atmosphere was relaxed yet elegant. Alexis talked to my wife and I about Chicago for a while and we shared with her we were in town for our granddaughter defending her dissertation. My wife and I truly enjoyed talking to her. Alexis even checked in with us the next day as we were in the lobby to ask how it went the day before. I recommend this hotel, they truly know hospitality.

SOPHY HydePark was an amazing hotel. Me and my college friends reunited in Chicago. We were treated amazing by the staff. We spoke to Alexis the director asking for sites to visit. She was delighted to help us with the best recommendations. The food/ drinks was amazing at the hotel. The rooms and bed were cozy and inviting. We had an amazing stay and would recommend to anyone staying in the Hyde park area.

The Sophy rarely disappoints in any way. The hotel is clean, well appointed, and the staff is always courteous and helpful. Hyde Park has always needed a hotel like this, a the Sophy is a fantastic addition to the south side. Best hotel for miles around.

"Overall a good experience."
TripAdvisor user rating 5.0 out of 5
Reviewed May 13, 2025 NEW
The hotel decor was very interesting. There were a number of restaurants, carry out places close to the hotel. There is even a Target and a CVS about a block away. The self park option was terrible since you had to load the code in the parking deck and the internet would not load once you had already checked into the garage. The desk clerk very kindly allowed me to stay at the adjacent outdoor parking area for the remainder of the hotel stay.
