Rooms average 44.5 sqm and feature 60-inch HDTVs, wooden floors, and bathrooms with walk-in showers .
Canopy Central will host complimentary beer and wine tastings each evening, and will also be where guests can enjoy complimentary breakfast (or they can opt to have a breakfast bag delivered to their room).
The hotel will be located at the corner of South LaSalle Street and West Adams Street in Chicago’s Loop district, within the top four floors of a converted historic landmarked building, which also houses a 610-room JW Marriott.
Commenting on the news Michael W Reschke, Chairman and CEO of The Prime Group, the developers of the hotel, said:
