PB hotel design editorial

Standing twenty-three stories above the intersection of Milwaukee, North, and Damen Avenues — the crossroads Chicagoans simply call the six corners — a terra-cotta-clad Art Deco tower built in 1929 by Perkins, Chatten & Hammond gives The Robey its entire architectural argument. The building's stepped crown, visible for blocks across Wicker Park's low-rise grid, was designed as an office tower and spent decades as such before its 2016 conversion into a 69-room hotel under the direction of développeur firm Grupo Habita, whose sensibility runs to adaptive reuse with a spare, design-forward hand. The interiors honor the building's geometry without retreating into period pastiche. Rooms are fitted with low-slung platform beds in dark-stained oak, marble-topped nightstands cantilevered from lacquered red steel brackets, and frosted glass partition walls — details visible in the images that draw a clear line to the Bauhaus tradition rather than 1920s Deco ornament. Marcel Breuer's Cesca chair appears at corner tables where black-trimmed casement windows frame rooftop views over the neighborhood's Victorian two-flats. Downstairs, the all-day restaurant deploys deep crimson leather banquettes against herringbone oak floors and pendant Edison fixtures suspended from a graphite ceiling — industrial warmth calibrated to the neighborhood rather than the Loop. The rooftop pool deck, modest in scale, turns the building's height into its main amenity, the Chicago skyline and the steeples of Wicker Park's older churches visible in every direction.

"Stayed here for four nights. I used to live in Wicker Park and saw online that the old abandoned office tower next to the Damien Blue Line stop had been converted to an upscale hotel. My first concern was that, having previously lived next to the CTA Blue Line, it’s quite loud, however from inside the hotel the noise is quite manageable, and a lot quieter that it would be at street level. Was exciting to get back into Wicker Park again, and all the restaurants, bars, and neighborhood life that area has to offer, it is certainly preferable to staying downtown. As I mentioned, the hotel is right next to the Damien Blue Line so getting to and from the airport isn’t a problem at all. North, Damien and Milwaukee avenues, the cross streets the hotel is at, all have frequent bus service also. Would potentially stay here again for future trips to Chicago."

"The rooms look like something out of a dystopian nightmare. Small, cold grey and black, no carpeting, no true privacy in the bathroom. When we first unlocked the door, I literally muttered, “You’ve got to be F’n kidding me!” Yeah, that was my first impression. Couldn’t wait to leave."

"I would give this hotel more stars if I could! I stayed here weekly for two months while traveling for work in Chicago, and it is hands down my favorite hotel I’ve ever stayed at. After traveling almost weekly for three years, I don’t say that lightly. The front desk team and valets are exceptional. Armando, Jose, and Andrew consistently went above and beyond. They always welcomed me by name, checked in on how my week was going, and made the chaos of work travel feel manageable. It’s rare to find a team that is not only professional, but genuinely kind. The hotel itself is beautiful and in a fantastic location, but what truly sets it apart is the staff. Their warmth, consistency, and attention to detail made it feel like a home away from home. I recommend this hotel to everyone I know visiting Chicago!"

"We got in early from an overnight flight and we’re lucky to find Andrew at the reception who was just the right kind of nice for really tired guests and sent us straight to coffee at the Robey Café (nice place, good coffee, by the way) and printed out directions of where we wanted to go. We had the corner room - the view is breathtaking indeed. Everything there you need. Thanks to Josh (speaking fluent German - wow) and Jake (really nice and helpful) for their easygoing hospitality. A recommendation!"

"Can’t beat the location. The rooms were top notch. Most of all, the customer service can not be better. 10/10."
