Top Gold Coast Hotel Reviews

Claridge House Chicago, Tapestry Collection by Hilton

10/10 Excellent

"👍"

The Chicago Hotel Collection Ambassador Gold Coast

4/10 Poor

"This review reflects both the hotel and Expedia’s handling of the booking. The good: The location is excellent and very accessible. The common areas, including the lobby and bar, are pleasant and well maintained. The bad: The hotel is showing its age. The AC struggled to keep the room comfortable (both temperature and sound wise), and the carpet and floors felt dirty. Housekeeping did not refill basic toiletries before our stay. The restaurant was disappointing, especially considering the many better dining options nearby. The ugly: Expedia failed to clearly disclose a mandatory “recreation fee” charged by the hotel. In our case, it added $142 to the cost of the stay. After seeing similar complaints in guest reviews, I called Expedia before arrival to clarify. The representative told me that the amount I paid through Expedia should be the only amount due and that I should contact Expedia immediately if the hotel attempted to charge additional mandatory fees. Upon arrival, the hotel presented the extra charge exactly as described by other reviewers. I called Expedia again and, after a lengthy conversation, was told someone would call me back within five minutes and that I would receive a follow-up email. Neither ever happened. Whether the responsibility lies with the hotel or Expedia, the result was the same: unexpected charges, conflicting information, and no follow-through from customer support. Based on this experience, I will not be using Expedia again."

10/10 Excellent

"I would have to say this is the one of if not THE BEST property I've ever rented! Between the size and layout, the beautiful and tasteful appointment and the location & parking I will literally plan my next trip to Chicago around the availability of this place! I have to mention the professionalism of the hosting as well, Tonya made everything smooth, simple and comfortable. 10 out of 10."

Luxury Designer Penthouse|Private Deck|Gold Coast

10/10 Excellent

"This property exceeded our expectations in nearly every way. The space itself was excellent, well-appointed, comfortable, and exactly as described. But the real star was the location. So much is within easy walking distance that you'll find yourself leaving the car (or the metro) behind entirely and just exploring on foot. It made for an incredibly immersive experience.One practical note: the unit is on the third floor with stairs, so if you or anyone in your group has mobility concerns or is traveling with heavy luggage, it's worth planning ahead. It wasn't a problem for us, but it's the kind of thing you appreciate knowing in advance.Overall, a fantastic stay. We'd book again without hesitation and highly recommend this property to anyone looking for a great base with an unbeatable location."
