Beautiful location. Parking is an additional $75 per night (watch your bank app, I was charged an extra night). Then learned they use the public lot across the street and it's $56 per night if you self park. $125 deposit is not refunded for 3-5 days after check out. We will return since it's so close to family, but honestly, it was better with the previous owners. This was our 3rd time here.

Predatory, outdated, expensive - just don’t stay here. -hit with surprise $100/day fee upon checking in -rooms are cheap and outdated with paper thin walls; get ready to enjoy every word your neighbors are saying! -elevators are slow, crowded, and occasionally stop running -line at front desk at all hours of the day -hotel food is airplane-grade and overpriced Would’ve been 1/5 but the staff is friendly and tries their best, avoid this toilet at all costs

Avoid – 4 Rooms in 24 Hours, Mold, Flooding, No Management On-Site I recently stayed here and had the worst hotel experiences I’ve ever encountered. In just 24 hours, I was moved to four different rooms due to moldy smells, wet carpets, water spreading from the AC across the floor, and overall unsanitary conditions. The first room smelled like mold and had damp, stained carpet. The second was no better. The third flooded while I was out. I had to prove each issue before being moved, which felt insulting. Only after escalation was I moved to a room that was okay-- decent enough but more "meh" than anything else. They still issue paper coupon cards for drinks and breakfast, which makes the experience feel more like a carnival than a hotel. At check-in, expect an inefficient and absurdly outdated process as you're made to wait while staff count, stamp, and initial a stack of cards—one by one. On my first night, the bartender actually asked me to use my $15 drink coupon... for a club soda. The worst part? There was no manager on duty—even on a weekend night—and only one overwhelmed staff member at the front desk trying to handle everything. Totally unacceptable for a hotel that markets itself as high-end. The only redeeming part of my stay was Sean at the front desk and Tom from Engineering. Both were kind, professional, and clearly doing their best in an impossible situation. They deserve recognition—but the hotel itself? You’d be better off at a roadside interstate hotel. After my stay, I received an email requesting feedback and I wrote an email to share my experience. I received a prompt reply that was perfectly adequate and appropriate for the situation, but a future visit to The Ambassador Hotel in Chicago is a hard pass for me. Do not recommend.

Hotel Reception We booked through a travel agent in Ireland for 4 nights. We had a voucher prepaid stating the name as The Ambassador Gold Coast. When we went to check in after a 8 hour flight we were told our booking had been cancelled. We had to stand in reception and book online to be able to stay. I have had no feedback or money back and it is now over weeks ago. I emailed Michael over a week ago and had no reply. As it stands we have paid twice. We feel very let down.
