ST. CHARLES, Ill.
Dolce Hotels and Resorts has been named manager of the 1,042-room Q Center in St. Charles, Ill., ending the search by the conference hotel’s owners to diversify its business model.
Q Center, a Dolce Conference Hotel, joins the Dolce system of 26 properties representing more than 5,000 rooms in 10 states, Canada and Europe. It also becomes Dolce's first conference hotel in the Chicago area and its third property in the Midwest, following the opening of The Alexander, A Dolce Hotel, in Indianapolis last year.
The facility features 150,000 square feet of function space certified by the International Association of Conference Centres (IACC), five restaurants and lounges and a 4,500-square-foot fitness center on a 95-acre campus.
Dolce will reportedly focus on increasing occupancy at Q Center and introducing signature service elements that include Thoughtful Foods for Thoughtful Minds, a food-and-beverage program offering customizable culinary experiences for meeting attendees, as well as Nourishment Hubs, featuring energizing refreshments throughout the day.
Meeting planners will be provided with flexible meal options for their attendees as well as all-inclusive pricing.
