I've been staying at the Ambassador Hotel for years as a Hyatt property. Unfortunately Hyatt recently sold The Ambassador Hotel to The Chicago Hotels Collection, a group that imposes these non-disclosed additive promotional fees called a Daily Guest Amenity Package ($99.95/night) and a Reservation Recovery Fee ($20/night) on guests at check-in. This is a $119.95/night fee that is not disclosed at the Expedia site despite their advertising of an all-included price. I am surprised The Chicago Hotel Collections gets away with this questionable practice. The $99.95 Daily Guest Amenity Package provides 2 drink tickets, buffet breakfast for 2, and 2 $10 discounts off your evening dining at the hotel. This should be elective and sold as a separate upgrade, if you want to call it that, and should definitely be disclosed at the Expedia site when shopping for hotels. Even the The Chicago Collections Hotels website for the Ambassador Hotel hides this fee. The $20/night Reservation Recovery Fee pays for a list of 6 taxes from Chicago, Cook County and Illinois. Had I'd known that my hotel cost required a mandatory additional $119.95 per night, I could have looked at other hotel offerings when shopping. Also, no room cleaning until your 3rd day (not counting check-in day) of stay. Show More

The room was clean, well-appointed, spacious, and had all the amenities I needed. The bathroom was equally well done with a modern feel (although the sink was level rather than sloped toward the drain!). Check-in was smooth, although there was only one person at the desk, so the process took longer perhaps than if there had been two people. The lobby is a bit of a scene with the bar/dining area open to the lobby. We arrived at night, and there was a lot going on and with loud music, although none of the loudness flowed upstairs. The welcome basket was great, the morning buffet was v good, and the exercise facility had everything I needed. The neighborhood is beautiful, and the walk to the red line for the L was quick and scenic. The hotel wasn't a "cheap" solution, but it was worth the price for sure.Show More

Terrible food. Service subpar. Watched employee at the counter mess on her phone without acknowledging there were people standing there to be helped! Clearly ignoring customers. Eventually another employee stepped in and started helping people. Another employee told me they couldn’t add on a night for me and that it had to be done online. And I was standing right in front of him. Don’t understand why he could not do it. I added the night before I was blindsided by the 120 daily resort fee. Although you may find a cheap price… don’t do it… spend the money on a nicer hotel. Def not worth it and I would not recommend at all. Very disappointing Show More

Their so-called junior suite was more like a makeshift storage room turned suite. Upon arrival, I found a spider on my pillow, black mold all around the mini fridge, and water spewing all over the shower from a leak every time we turned it on. The shower towels were old and stained, and the carpets were dirty. To top it off, the alleged sofa bed ended up hurting my kids’ necks the springs just popping out everywhere. The entire suite was in total disarray. When I requested a different room, they refused. When I requested to cancel the last night, they refused until Expedia got involved. All in all, our choice of staying at this hotel ruined our Chicago trip. We stay in lots of hotels all over and this was one of our worst experiences! Show More
