As I mentioned the other day, I traveled to Chicago for a couple comfort inn hollywood florida days last week for a group field trip in conjunction with this semester s studio class, which involves designing an entertainment space of our choosing in the Panama City, Panama, entertainment zone. While in Chicago, we visited several hotels, received tours of three, and were exposed to a wide variety of fabulous hospitality design.
We were extremely fortunate to stay at Public , which is located off State Street comfort inn hollywood florida in the Gold Coast neighborhood. I had never visited this area of Chicago before (at least not during comfort inn hollywood florida the day, and have never stayed there), so it was a special treat.
Public used to be the old Ambassador and is also home to the infamous Pump Room . You can read all about the hotel and Ian Schrager s innovate comfort inn hollywood florida vision on its website. From a design perspective, I related more to this hotel than any of the others we visited. The historic structure and architectural details, comfort inn hollywood florida from the intricate moldings in the lobby to the mail chutes in the hallway, had been maintained and preserved whenever possible. On our tour, we heard how many of the design decisions had been influenced by the desire to keep the hotel as accessible as possible, while retaining a certain level of luxury. Little touches like up lighting behind the beds and an iPhone comfort inn hollywood florida charger on the night stand really stood out.
The color palette throughout the hotel was extremely restrained to shades of white, black, gray, and subtle metallics. In the Pump Room, mossy green velvet cushions on the barstools and bench seating drew the eye back through the space. I particularly loved the neutral, putty like shade that was used in the hallways on walls, ceilings, trims, and doorways alike. Even the carpet was a similar shade. It created this soft, quiet, encompassing comfort inn hollywood florida space, dimly lit by the glow of simple, modern sconces and ceiling fixtures.
We ate one meal breakfast comfort inn hollywood florida at the Pump Room, which crafts its menu almost entirely from scratch, and it was just like the hotel itself simple, restrained, and with layers of interest and flavor. We also sat at the bar on Thursday evening, people watching and sipping a Passion Chili cocktail, which was equally interesting and delicious. If you love design and crave a different hotel experience, I highly recommend experiencing Public comfort inn hollywood florida and the Pump Room for yourself. It was the perfect combination of honoring history while embracing modern luxuries.
