Ambassador East Hotel, CHICAGO Ambassador East Hotel, CHICAGO
Location. Local to Chicago's (Ill.) Gold Coast area, the Ambassador East Hotel is two blocks from Lake Michigan and five blocks from Michigan Avenue's Magnificent Mile. Oak Street Beach and shopping are within six blocks of the hotel and North Avenue Beach is one half mile away.

Hotel Features. The 1926 Ambassador East Hotel's ongoing fame is attributable mainly to the Pump Room restaurant and lounge, attracting the likes of Frank Sinatra, Richard Gere, Judy Garland and Liza Minelli since opening in 1938. Lining the stairway to the restaurant are photos of visiting celebrities who often sit in Booth One, catering to numerous parties including the wedding celebrations of Humphrey Bogart and Lauren Bacall. Chefs here prepare French inspired specialties such as Stuffed Pumpkin Gnocchi, Muscovy Duck and Seared Butterfish, all offset by an extensive wine list. Coffee and tea are complimentary each morning and live jazz is hosted on the weekends at the Pump Room.

The hotel features 8,900 square feet of event space and a business center offering notary public and translation services. Fitness facilities host cardiovascular and strength training equipment and an adjacent sun room. Private in room workout kits are available upon request.

Guestrooms. The 285 guestrooms at the Ambassador East Hotel feature an English country motif with antique cherry wood furnishings. Rooms offer elongated windows providing panoramic views of the Golden Corridor or Lake Michigan. Guestroom amenities include desks, minibars and armoires opening to cable television and video game consoles. High speed Internet access is complimentary in each room.

Hotel Expert's Tip. Soaking in the theatric ambiance of the classic architecture of the Ambassador East Hotel, I traced former stage settings for Alfred Hitchcock's North by Northwest and Tony Bill's My Bodyguard, among several notable movies filmed in this lobby.
