The Talbott, a historical landmark at the Gold Coast in Chicago, has completed a complete renovation and officially committed to the autograph collection of Marriott Bonvoy – a portfolio of over 330 independent hotels around the world – every hand for their inherent craft and a pronounced perspective of the design. This milestone marks a brave new chapter in the heritage of the hotel, in which timeless elegance corresponds to modernity. As part of the autograph collection, the Talbott reflects the conviction of the brand that Beauty without heart is meaningless– In every detail that tells a story, from her curated art program to its warm, layered interiors.
A holistic transformation
From check-in to the renovation of the renovation system, the renovation represents every aspect of the property, including all 178 guest rooms, public spaces and event areas. A consistent design thread – stationed from gold, warm textures, curated art and thoughtful local references – about every room to tell a uniform and authentic story.
Design that tells a story
In cooperation with Studio 11 Design, the renovation interprets the historical elegance of the gold coast through a warm, layered palette -Caramel leather, brownstone red, antique white and gold man from gold. Curated works of art, mill work in the hand craftsman style and rich furniture give the interiors a feeling of durability and personality. The guest rooms are reminiscent of timeless comfort with green tones, with vintage-inspired elements. Amenabilities such as Nespresso coffee machines, attached alchemical bathroom products and K-Drei-Vintage blue speakers offer comfort and style, while locally curated mini bars offer a foretaste of the craftsmanship scene in Chicago in Chicago-with selection from the neighborhood billing to highlight the creativity of the city in the city.
Throughout the hotel, art is used as a story – a mixture of brave, modern and classic works that create a dialogue between past and the present. The design is inspired by nearby institutions such as the Art Institute of Chicago and the surrounding architectural heritage. An outstanding function is a special cooperation with the illustrator Nicole Cicak, based in Chicago. Your original hand-drawn sketches of the hotel will be published by the brand Life and guest touchpoint in the entire property. The illustrations of Cicak bring a nostalgic but bizarre perspective and adds a personal and artistic dimension to reflect the spirit of the hotel of individuality and creative expression.
The gallery space: designed for the connection
The gallery room organizes daily “gallery meetings” for hotel guests -Casual social activations with classic games such as chess and checkers, light entertainment, seasonal programming and food & beverage tastings, which were curated by our chef. These experiences are intended to trigger the connection and conversation in a warm, classic and accomplished environment. Newly added wooden doors enable the space to transform into a private dining room or a meeting area if necessary.
New restaurant – Laurel
Laurel will be debuted in May 2024 and offers Mediterranean inspired kitchen with a focus on seasonal ingredients and increased but accessible tariff. With 100 seats on the terrace outdoors along trees that are equipped in Delaware Street, it quickly became a jewel in the neighborhood. Laurel's ambience reflects the attraction of her kitchen and has a sophistication together with airy European charm, which is reminiscent of both the Mediterranean hospitality and the cosmopolitan charm of Chicagos Gold Coast.
Laurel's menu is led by the talented chef Dino Tsaknis and shows a lively fusion of local, high -seasonal ingredients from the diverse region of the Mediterranean.
Events & wellness, redesigned
The hotel's event rooms were reconsidered for today's meetings. The Reed Room offers a sophisticated, tonal finish range with decorative lighting and inserting wall panels that ideal for corporate meetings and social events.
On the upper floor, the former meeting room on the second floor was transformed into a slim, state -of -the -art fitness center with a view of the Delaware Street and offers guests the perfect balance between wellness and luxury.
In the meantime, the gallery space for flexibility was reinterpreted. With modular furniture and a framed television that hides behind Kühner works of art, the room easily changes from the lounge to the meeting room or private restaurants.
