The Chicago Hotel Collection Ambassador Gold Coast

The Chicago Hotel Collection Ambassador Gold Coast

8/10 Good
"Nice large room. Everything was in good shape. There was no coffee maker and no microwave, no snacks, no vending. We needed hot water for tea. The first night, the bar provided such, albeit slowly. The second they refused and were rather brusk about it. This was quite disappointing from an expensive hotel."

Claridge House Chicago, Tapestry Collection by Hilton

10/10 Excellent
"Only thing that was bothersome, which the hotel can’t control, was the middle of the night loud motorcycles racing with loud music that woke me up a few times. The hotel was lovely though."
