Art Nouveau is a classy style that celebrates the
historic background of the River North area.
Dressing the hotel lobby in classic colors while
incorporating curved furniture and details with
slightly modern twist gives the space an updat-
ed feeling. Working together, these different
elements allow guests to enjoy the comforts of
today that were made possible by the important
contributions from the past.
