W Chicago-City Center Showcases Renovated Spaces

June 26, 2009

W Chicago-City Center has unveiled updates to its 235 guestrooms and suites, signature W Living Room, and more than 14,000 sq. ft. of meeting and event space. In addition, the hotel is on track to double its footprint by the end of 2011. The revamp balances the property's Beaux-Arts architecture with contemporary design elements.

Backed by a neutral palette accented with pops of navy and purple, guestrooms feature custom wallcoverings, white marble sinks, modular furniture, and a bar. The W Living room is outfitted with oversized lamps, a long sofa, and furnishings covered in serpentine fabrics or luminescent metallics. Resembling a night sky, thousands of LED pin lights illuminate the carpeting, while the design of side tables—featuring liquid sealed in between their tabletops—changes and moves when pressed. www.whotels.com/chicago
