Hotel Description:

Indulge yourself through an awakening of taste in the Hotel Monaco-Chicago. This elegant hotel was completely renovated in 1998 with a grand "Living Room" lobby entrance that features painted woodwork in "string of pearl" detail, a cast limestone fireplace, plush furnishings of damask and velvet in the large sitting area, and a jeweled-tone color palate of light gold, cream, coral red, copper and rich chocolate brown. The Living Room helps guests celebrate taste through a hosted evening wine hour that occasionally features soothing chair massages and sumptuous hors d'oeuvres from the celebrated Southwater Kitchen that is adjacent to the hotel. Throughout the rest of the hotel Award-winning designer Cheryl Rowley turns to early Deco and the works of Emil Jacques Ruhlmann, a French furniture and theatrical designer, for her inspiration.

Each 192 deluxe guestrooms welcomes travelers with warm colors and eclectic and highly detailed furnishings including a rich mahogany writing desk a deco cornice armoire and an oversized diamond-pattern quilted headboard in lipstick red. Each guestroom also features a relaxing Meditation Station. This pillow-covered window sills offers a perfect vantage point to enjoy one of the delectable honor bar treats while watching the vibrant city from high above. Hotel Monaco's Guppy Love program offers guests the pleasure of having a goldfish companion in their rooms for their stay. Hotel staff cares for the goldfish, leaving guests to simply enjoy their aquatic roommates.

In its own stylish space, Southwater Kitchen tempts the palate of locals and guests alike with a mouthwatering American menu for breakfast, lunch and dinner. South Water Kitchen's decor complements its American menu through the warm colors, strong columns and intimate lighting throughout.
