Top Edgewater Beach Hotel Reviews

Hilton Chicago O'Hare Airport

10/10 Excellent

"We liked that it was just a walk to the airport. We had an early flight to Florida and had no problem at all with the hotel."

Eurostars Magnificent Mile

10/10 Excellent

"Hands-down, always my favorite place to stay when I am in Chicago. I’ve been staying here for years. It’s essentially located so you can walk everywhere to the magnificent mile to the Gold Coast Beach to all of the shopping. Restaurants are right next to it. There is a true food, kitchen and a soul cycle right next to it as well and Tal nightclub is also right next-door. The staff is absolutely amazing in the rooms are luxurious for a great price."

The Chicago Hotel Collection Ambassador Gold Coast

8/10 Good

"The room is nice, big with a bed which is comfy and the Wi.Fi works just fine. It wasn't the cleanest. If you look a bit under the chairs or in the corners there was plenty of dust. Breakfast is ok and they were very kind to make an earlier one for the marathon"
