Inspiration from the Millennium Knickerbocker Hotel
A renovation can make a significant impact on the success of a property- particularly
during a time of economic downturn when occupancy rates decline. Whether for a luxury hotel, conference center, public space, or mixed-use development, a modernization that incorporates the existing features and character of a property will prove to be profitable in the long-term.
TynanGroup has been transforming properties for nearly two decades and just completed the restoration of the historic, Millennium Knickerbocker Hotel in Chicago, Illinois. The extensive renovation included the demolition of all 306 guestrooms to create modern luxury accommodations that recapture the glamour the property once embodied.
Before Renovation
After Renovation
“The incredible redesign of our guest accommodations brings our hotel to a level of luxury befitting its grand beginnings and Magnificent Mile location”
-Anthony Kinnear, General Manager
The Knickerbocker Hotel first opened on May 16, 1927 as the Davis Hotel. Complete with a secret doorway and a mezzanine floor, the hotel is a member of the Historic Hotels of America; epitomizing the allure and mystique of the Roaring Twenties.
Taking into account the hotel’s historic significance, the renovation of the hotel combined the latest amenities and contemporary style with 1920′s detail. In addition, energy-efficient lighting, water flow control, and linen recycling programs were instituted in efforts of environmental responsibility. By renovating, the Millennium Knickerbocker Hotel regained its title of elegance and sophistication in a competitive market.
