If you are looking for a hotel that has history and is in the middle of things, the Ambassador East is for you. We used them as the host hotel for my daughter's recent wedding (she stayed in the Doris Day suite) and could not have been happier with the location, staff and the Pump Room. Every staff member was so helpful and courteous. The experience is one I will not forget. The rooms are spacious, the food was great, the staff is knowledgable-(eat dinner in the Pump Room-everything is to die for-we sampled almost everything with our party of 10) and I can not tell you how comfortable we all were. I felt at home for the week we stayed! It is in a quiet neighbor with a children's playground nearby and very safe for walking to the lake or park! It is an easy walk to Rush Street for nightlife, shopping on Oak Street, a drugstore or even a market. It is only a short cab, bus or train ride to downtown. This is a quiet, quaint hotel whose renovations promise to be wonderful. I...... Read more

Small and a bit out of the way

When I first entered the hotel I was surprised to see how small it was - very small and it is located on the edge of Rush Street so the area is pretty residential. It is quite a hike to some of the major attractions. The room was small but nice. The Pump Handle did have excellent entertainment. Not a lot of amenities - no vending, pool, excersie room.

About a year ago I stayed at your hotel. I was pleased with the price of the room. When I first entered, I thought it was a little small at first, but adjusted quickly to it. I first noticed a small hole in the bedspread, but everything else was in nice shape. I know I was disappointed with something else, and I think it was either the lack of a hair dryer or an iron. I've slept since then, you know! The entertainment in the Pump Room was great. I also found the concierge to be very helpful! The location was super, as was the doorman who helped me get a taxi at various times. I especially loved the location and its proximity to Rush Street restaurants. All in all, it was a pleasant experience. I was disappointed not to see it on Orbitz or Expedia last fall when I returned to the city again for an overnight stay. I think updating the bedspreads might be nice and more welcoming.
