The Hotel at Midtown
Discipline : Architecture
Categories : Commercial Building / Hotel & Holiday Resort
Located off Chicago’s industrial corridor, the 55-room boutique Hotel at Midtown, towering above the 3-story fitness center at Midtown Athletic Club, is envisioned to provide active travelers the ultimate fitness and wellness experience. In a 35,000 square-foot, two-story reflective glass volume above the health club, the Hotel at Midtown is located on the 4th and 5th floors with the most spectacular views of Chicago.
Finishes from the health club are brought into the guest rooms to provide a cohesive experience. Thoughtful attention was given to the design of custom built-in furnishings and finishes in each guestroom for the ultimate relaxing stay. All of the hotel case goods are made of natural walnut wood appointed with black iron details, complementing the sophisticated urban mood in each room. A long walnut desk stretches across a wall seemingly floating above dresser drawers. Opposite the desk is a plush bed with a low walnut headboard suspended above the floor and which is back-lit to give radiance and warmth to the space. Custom walnut nightstands are built into the headboard, floating above the floor.
In the bathroom white marble tiles are carefully sequenced so the stone grain continues as it folds from one panel to the next. A thin metal frame supports the vanity with built-in features to keep toiletries and towels dry and within arm’s length.
