Positives: I love the location and atmosphere and the people in the area Are very nice
Negatives: I was told that I would not have to pay anything on site just to get there and still have to pay two hundred $200 extra on site after I already paid then they instantly take the money out.That day, but you have to wait days before you get it back should have a better policy.Because they don't have to wait on their money at the time of service.So why should we have to wait on our money getting it back

Isis family with young children February 20, 2025
Positives: Good location
Negatives: Avoid at All Costs! Refund Nightmare!** I stayed at The Wade Hotel Chicago Lakeshore (formerly W Chicago Lakeshore) over New Year’s Eve 2025, and I’m still fighting to get over $3,000 back! Despite being told the charges were “temporary holds,” the money was never refunded, and my bank has no record of a refund ever being processed. The hotel’s accounting department has been zero help, blaming my bank while admitting they no longer have access to records since rebranding. Even Marriott Customer Care has been unable to resolve this mess. If you value your money and peace of mind, stay away from this hotel. I’ve been left out of pocket, frustrated, and completely ignored. **Travelers beware!** This could happen to you!

Positives: The ambience was nice, the lobby and the rooms.
Negatives: The transition of the Hotel going from the W to the Wade. This caused confusion at check in and with breakfast.
