Post renovation, the 435-room hotel features a new restaurant and bar, new presidential suite that includes daily in-room massages and an updated promenade, ballroom and lobby.
The renovations have made structural changes and updated the décor of its 111 rooms. It has also added a new 2,900 square feet two-story Presidential Suite with a spiral staircase, floor-to-ceiling views of Lake Michigan, two bedrooms, a kitchen, living room, dining room, study and three full- and two half- baths. The suite also features a media room, baby grand piano and Bose surround sound stereo system, a 24-hour personal assistant with in-room business center, transportation to and from the airport in a Rolls Royce Phantom and a daily in-room 90 minute massage.
A sky-lit fountain adorns the lobby, which has been redesigned with upholstered wall-coverings, marble floorings, floor lamps and lounge chairs, lending a ‘living room’ ambiance. The walkway leads to the hotel’s 9,000 square feet ballroom, which was upgraded and redesigned in a champagne palette with traditional draperies and a carpet pattern designed to illuminate the room’s original 400,000-piece cascading crystal chandelier.
The ‘deca Restaruant + Bar’, a part of the hotel, hosts a brasserie-influenced menu from executive chef Mark Payne and a wine list offering 40 wines by the glass.
