CHICAGO—Viceroy Chicago, the latest addition to the Viceroy Icon Collection and Viceroy Hotel Group’s first property in the Midwest, opens its doors this Friday.
Located in the heart of the city’s Gold Coast neighborhood, the 180-room modern luxury hotel is located on the site of the former historic Cedar Hotel and will offer culinary concepts from the Boka Restaurant Group.
The building is 18-stories tall and houses the neighborhood’s first rooftop pool. This rooftop space, in addition to floor-to-ceiling windows throughout the hotel, provides views of Lake Michigan and the cityscape. It is also proximate to local attractions including Lake Michigan, the Magnificent Mile, and the storefronts and boutiques on Oak St.
With community partnerships being a cornerstone of the hotel experience, the hotel offers its guests wellness and fashion programming provided by locally based businesses including Chill Chicago, a modern meditation studio; CorePower Yoga; and Felt, an upscale women’s clothing boutique located in Chicago’s Logan Square.
In partnership with Chill Chicago, Viceroy Chicago presents a number of ways for guests to remain mindful while traveling including “Moving Meditation,” an airport pick-up service that features a pre-recorded meditation session to enjoy while en route to the hotel, and “Chill Hour,” a weekly, on-site meditation class. Guests are also provided with meditation tips in-room. Beginning in September, the hotel will host weekly yoga classes from CorePower, which will be open to guests and locals alike.
In addition, Felt will provide guests with individualized styling sessions and private shopping experiences, which includes a stylist, an in-room styling and shopping session, as well as a custom-tailoring as needed.
The hotel is owned by Convexity Properties.
