"I would just like to take this opportunity to tell you that we had a wonderful time at your Chicago Omni Hotel where we hosted our daughter's wedding reception on February 2, 2008.  Your staff was extremely professional and we were very pleased with the services at the reception as well as the hotel services for our out-of-town guests. In particular I would like to mention that Claudia Alvarez, your catering manager, was invaluable as a resource for planning the wedding reception.  She had sound advice and made useful suggestions.  Her list of potential vendors was very helpful in the search process for  music, flowers, and photography.  She was patient with our many questions, and she always maintained a very professional demeanor throughout our interactions with her.  -Her follow-up was thorough and her communications frequent and timely. Claudia frequently showed flexibility and skill in problem solving situations.  She was a big part of why we chose, and would recommend, the Omni Hotel for a wedding reception!

The hotel was gorgeous, what a wonderful resort and locale. The rooms knocked our guests’ socks off, and being on the "Magnificent Mile" allowed the many first time guests to have a great Chicago Experience. As for the wedding, we would like to thank you for putting on such a wonderful event, one that followed our specifications to a "T". Every guest has called to tell us how wonderful the wedding was and how much fun they had staying with you. We appreciate all of your hard work. We hope to be able to use your services in the future, but at the very least we cannot wait until our next stay at you magnificent hotel. Very Respectfully, Lexie and Toby Hubbard" "We chose the Omni Chicago Hotel for one of the most important events in our lives, our wedding. We were not disappointed. From the valets at the front door to the front desk staff, concierge and food and beverage folks, we were treated with top-notch hospitality and professionalism. Thank you all for helping to make our wedding weekend so special. Our wedding was a destination wedding, and we knew that having confidence in the place we chose in Chicago was extremely important to the success of our celebration. We found that confidence in the Omni Chicago-s Catering Manager, Claudia Alvarez. We looked at many facilities in Chicago that would have been wonderful settings for our wedding, and not only did the Omni offer a perfect location and setting for our ceremony and reception, it offered a true professional in Claudia Alvarez. Our confidence in her lead us to choose the Omni, and we were not disappointed." "Claudia Alvarez was very good at her job. Also she has a warm and very personable personality that makes you feel welcome. A big plus for you. Many other hotels I interviewed did not have the person I wanted to deal with. She is probably the main reason I chose the Omni." "Overall, everyone in my family was extremely happy with the services provided by the Omni. We would not hesitate to recommend your property to anyone or to use it again in the future. Claudia was absolutely wonderful. Once we dropped off everything for the reception, I didn’t have to worry about anything. I knew we were in good hands and she definitely delivered. During the reception, Orlando was outstanding. " "EVERY person that we came in contact with treated us like royalty. the folks who work out front definitely set the tone for a great time. we would love to return again!!" "Claudia Alvarez was a joy to work with. She was professional, friendly and accommodated all of our needs. She truly made our wedding day special and different from any other we have ever been to. We hope to work with her in the future, and have recommended her to all of our friends!" "The Omni staff was very helpful and accommodating to our guests. The rooms were beautiful, spacious and very clean. The concierge made sightseeing reservations for our family and friends and was very helpful in many ways. The staff contributed to a wonderful wedding weekend for our family and friends. worked with Claudia Alvarez, the catering manager, for several months before our event. She was extremely professional, friendly and courteous at all times. Claudia-s care to details and helpfulness made our-s and our guests- stay at your hotel very enjoyable and pleasant. Claudia helped me with the menu and the brunch was delicious. There was more than enough food and the trays were always replenished when needed. The room that the brunch was held in was absolutely beautiful and accommodated all of our guests. We never had to worry about anything! We appreciate all that Claudia did to make it a weekend to remember for all of us. Sincerely, Sharon Schloss" "Everything was just wonderful-from dealing with Claudia Alvarez to the rest of the staff!!! I couldn’t have been happier. Everyone was extremely accommodating and I was very impressed. My guests were very happy and that was very important to me. I would recommend this hotel over and over again."
