A Stroll Through Luxury

The Oak Street District is more than just a shopping area; it’s a lifestyle destination. Picture charming cobblestone streets lined with elegant storefronts housing some of the world’s most coveted brands. It’s here that Chicago meets Parisian chic, blending Midwestern charm with international flair. And now, with The Chicago Hotel Collection’s growing portfolio, you can stay mere steps away from the pulse of the city’s shopping scene.


When our new Gold Coast hotel opens its doors in February 2025, guests will enjoy proximity to flagship boutiques from designers like Chanel, Gucci, and Hermès. Whether you’re hunting for the latest runway styles, timeless accessories, or simply enjoying a day of window shopping, the Oak Street District promises an unparalleled experience.


Iconic Boutiques

This shopper’s paradise is home to an impressive lineup of high-end stores, each offering something special:


  • Chanel: Step into the iconic French maison for couture, fine jewelry, and fragrance collections.

  • Hermès: Discover classic pieces, from silk scarves to exquisite leather goods.

  • Gucci: Explore bold designs and contemporary styles at their luxurious flagship boutique.

  • Jimmy Choo: Find the perfect pair of shoes or accessories to complete any outfit.

These boutiques, along with dozens of others, are within walking distance of The Chicago Hotel Collection’s Gold Coast property. And for guests staying at our Mag Mile or River North locations, the Oak Street District is a quick ride away, making it easy to indulge in your favorite brands. Staying at our Mag Mile location also places you close to the Magnificent Mile, another iconic shopping destination, where department stores and flagship retailers line the avenue.


Chicago hidden Gems and Local Favorites

While internationally renowned designers dominate the Oak Street District, the neighborhood also boasts unique, locally-owned shops and specialty boutiques. Stop by George Greene for expertly tailored menswear, or explore ikram, a Chicago institution known for showcasing emerging designers and avant-garde pieces. These hidden gems offer a personalized shopping experience, ensuring you’ll leave with something truly unique. Additionally, being close to the River North location means easy access to boutique art galleries and eclectic shops for those looking for distinct souvenirs or decor items.


More Than Shopping

Shopping in the Oak Street District isn’t just about what you buy—it’s about the experience. Between browsing, treat yourself to a leisurely lunch or coffee break at one of the area’s upscale cafés or restaurants. Options like Le Colonial, with its French-Vietnamese flair, or the charming Café Créme are perfect for unwinding and people-watching. The district seamlessly blends luxury shopping with world-class dining, creating an immersive day out.

For those who want to explore even more of Chicago’s culinary scene, staying at our Mag Mile or River North hotels gives you quick access to the city’s vibrant restaurant and nightlife options, making every evening just as memorable as your shopping adventures.
