  • Best wedding venue!

    "From the start, my husband and I were so impressed with the responsiveness and care from the team at The Gwen, a Luxury Collection Hotel in Chicago. Audrey and her staff responded to our emails and calls within the same day, often within just 5-10 minutes, which was incredibly helpful during the hectic wedding planning process. They were direct and attentive, making us feel like their top priority. The space itself was perfect for our 155-person wedding, with a gorgeous cocktail area and stunning reception space that matched our vision seamlessly. When our rabbi unexpectedly got sick right before the wedding, Audrey and her team quickly adapted and ensured we had everything we needed. They also went above and beyond to set up our suite with the amenities we needed. The Gwen's unparalleled service and beautiful venue made our special day truly unforgettable."
