Gold Coast / Streeterville are neighborhoods in the Near North Side community area of Chicago, north of the Chicago River. It is bounded by the river on the south, the Magnificent Mile portion of Michigan Avenue to the west, and Lake Michigan to the east. The City of Chicago only recognizes a small portion of this region as Streeterville. Thus, it can be described as the Magnificent Mile plus all land east of it.

Streeterville includes some of Chicago`s tallest skyscrapers, such as the John Hancock Center, and upscale stores, hotels, and restaurants. The east side of Streeterville is Navy Pier, the most visited attraction in Chicago, and the John Hancock Observatory, the eighth-most visited attraction in Chicago.

The Northwestern University Feinberg School of Medicine is on the Chicago campus and is adjacent to several closely affiliated hospitals, including Northwestern Memorial Hospital, the Ann & Robert H. Lurie Children`s Hospital of Chicago, the Prentice Women`s Hospital, and the Rehabilitation Institute of Chicago. The Northwestern University Pritzker School of Law is at Chicago Avenue and Lake Shore Drive, adjacent to Lake Shore Park and Lake Michigan. In the western end of the park is the Museum of Contemporary Art. The downtown campus of the University of Chicago Booth School of Business has a Chicago River setting to the south.

Gold Coast / Streeterville is accessible via Lake Shore Drive with multiple direct exits in both directions.

In addition, the Chicago `L` has stops at Chicago and Grand stations on the Red Line, which runs along State Street immediately to the west of the neighborhood. From the Kennedy Expressway the Ohio Street exit feeds into Streeterville. Numerous Chicago Transit Authority bus routes run within the neighborhood, notably along Michigan Avenue, Grand Avenue, and Chicago Avenue. During warm-weather months, water taxis and sightseeing boats ply the Chicago River along the south edge of the neighborhood and Navy Pier handles similar Lake Michigan water traffic.

Easter Weekend 2025

We really enjoyed this property - the location was excellent, close to Michigan Ave. shops, restaurants, sights but the street itself was quiet and not crowded at all which made for easy ubers! We walked everywhere and loved it! The unit itself was very spacious and worked well for our family - plenty of sleeping space with king beds in both bedrooms, bonus trundle daybed in the living room and two full bathrooms definitely a plus :) The hosts were great communicating with us before and during our trip - we loved Chicago and would definitely come back to this property!

Good place to stay

This is a nice place to stay. Conveniently located within the walking distance from multiple restaurants, shops and attractions. Upon welcome, the host provided a pitcher with cold water in the fridge, a generous amount of coffee pods to choose from, coffee mate creamers, tea bags. They also offered a generous amount of hand soap, shampoo, body wash and conditioner. In the kitchen they had plenty of dish soap pods and trash bags, which is rare in most VRBOs Iโ€™ve been to. Only one frying pan though and no tapperwear - considering there is a kitchen for cooking, it was slightly inconvenient. The place is generally quiet but you can hear squeaky floors from the neighbors upstairs, sirens and dogs barking outside. There is a nice little cafe Cafecito on the ground floor where you can have breakfast outside. The Ohio street beach is 10 mins walking distance. I found the beds comfortable, the mattresses were firm, no dents (as mentioned by one of the reviewers). The beds could benefit from more natural bed linens but itโ€™s my personal preference. Overall, we enjoyed our stay there. I recommend this place.

Great location to see the best of Chicago!

We were very happy with our stay at The Guild. The communication in advance and the check-in process was very easy with instructions sent via email. This is an older apartment building but it has central air which was essential for a late July stay. The living room is spacious, there is a work desk if needed; the kitchen/dining room setup is well appointed with a Keurig and a full supply of K-cups (thank you!); and the bedrooms are good sized with very comfortable beds. The location could not have been better, within a few minutes of the Magnificent Mile and the Hancock Tower with the Navy Pier only a 20 minute walk away. We highly recommend the property.

Long Chicago Weekend

The condo was beautiful and clean. The space was amazing and surprisingly spacious for a Chicago condo. This unit has everything you need for a wonderful stay in Chicago.

Good location/Weird Vibe/Poor Mattress

All in all I am satisfied with my stay. I will warn others, the fact that you have to enter and exit through the service entrance feels sketchy. The mattress in the bedroom with the ensuite had a huge divot in it and made it difficult to sleep without being in a U shape. The location was good. VRBO will hold your money for some sort of insurance. I wasnโ€™t able to get that back into my account until two weeks after my stay (I also had to pay it a month prior). If you are paying with a credit card, expect to have to pay the interest out of pocket.

Great location

This apartment is in a great location. Plenty of restaurants, shopping and a few minute walk to the John Hancock building. The apartment was clean and well appointed and looks exactly as the photos shown. The only reason I took away a star in the accuracy category is, it lists a queen sleeper sofa, however what they have is a couch that simply folds down- not a queen mattress hidden in a sofa. I spoke to the owners and suggested they change the description to reflect this. The building is a lovely older building with a cafe' on the bottom floor and a beautiful rooftop terrace.
