The Hyatt Regency Chicago, the city’s largest hotel and the largest Hyatt in North America, will complete its three-year, $168 million renovation in April.
The final stage of upgrades includes improvements to the property’s East Tower lobby as well as to the hotel’s restaurants and its 228,000 square feet of meetings space.
The upgrades to the 2,019-room hotel, which was built near the city’s Magnificent Mile district in 1974, started in 2010 with improvements to the property’s West Tower rooms.
Room rates range from $299 for a standard double to $5,900 for the Monarch suite.
The hotel is the second Hyatt Regency in Chicago to receive major upgrades in recent years.
Four miles south, the Hyatt Regency McCormick Place is getting $110 million in upgrades, and later this year will add a 460-room tower to bring that hotel’s guestroom total to 1,260.
