Luxe LondonHouse Debuts in Chicago

CHICAGO

LondonHouse Chicago opened in the former London Guarantee Building. Originally opened in 1923, the hotel pays tribute to its past while also incorporating modern elements. The hotel adds 452 rooms and 25,000 square feet of meeting space to the market.

“Our entire development and operational team has worked hard over the last several years to transform this elegant and historic building into a beautiful luxury lifestyle hotel,” said John W. Rutledge, founder, president and CEO of Oxford Capital Group, LLC. “We are thrilled to finally be opening our doors.”

LondonHouse Chicago, is part of Hilton Curio brand, uses its design to memorialize the era in which the 23-floor tower was originally built. The property's design aesthetic is further elevated through a custom art collection and unique prints curated by Indiewalls to visualize the property’s glamour while telling a story of its history.

There is 25,000 square feet of meeting space, including the Juliette and Whistler ballrooms which feature high ceilings and a column free open layout. In addition, there are 10 meeting spaces and breakout rooms and a boardroom.

Located on the 22nd floor, atop the hotel, are four private dining spaces of all sizes, including Etoile, which features a patio that can accommodate 80 for an outdoor reception. Each private dining room offers an airy atmosphere and majestic river views. 

Led by Executive Chef and Beverage Director Riley Huddleston, the hotel’s culinary program pays homage to the building’s history via re-imagined American cuisine and chef-crafted cocktails.
