PB hotel design editorial

What you see from the corner of State and Rush is a deliberate act of architectural conversation: a faceted cobalt glass tower, its pleated curtain wall catching the Lake Michigan sky, rising from a meticulously preserved 1920s terra-cotta and red brick base that once housed the Avenue Motel. Hartshorne Plunkard Architecture designed the new-build addition to sit above rather than erase the historic structure, and the contrast — creamy Beaux-Arts ornament giving way to folded blue glass — is precisely the point. Viceroy Chicago opened in 2017 with 180 rooms across 18 floors, and the Gold Coast address situates it within one of the city's most architecturally layered neighborhoods, the John Hancock Center and 875 North Michigan visible from the rooftop pool deck. Interior designer Roman and Williams brought a sensibility drawn from mid-century American glamour rather than corporate luxury — walnut case goods with brass hardware, geometric gold-and-black tile headboard walls that carry faint echoes of Frank Lloyd Wright's textile-block ornament, low-slung lounge chairs upholstered in patterned wool. The rooftop bar's burnished copper ceiling reflects back a warm amber light against the floor-to-ceiling glass, Foscarini-adjacent globe pendants lining the bartop beside a long black marble counter. Guest rooms frame views east toward the lake through the tower's angled glass panels, the geometry of the curtain wall giving each room its own oblique perspective on the Chicago skyline.

"I visited Viceroy Chicago for an industry conference. My overall stay was superb and as a frequent loyalist of the Viceroy brand for many years this was my first visit to their Chicago property and a brand best. I arrived early Sunday morning and desperately needed my room to refresh for a day full of meetings. I completed mobile check in on my way to the airport and shared my ETA. To my pleasant surprise the room was expedited and ready early for my arrival. Right off the bat great start! The hotel overall was superb. The rooms product is upscale with high touch finishes. You can tell there was care in every detail when the rooms were designed and have been very well maintained. My favorite experiences were Pandan rooftop lounge with unique speciality cocktails which we experienced pre dinner and the coffee nook in the lobby which I must have hit 3x per day for fuel! Thank you to the entire team and hope to see you soon!"

"We came to Chicago for a Cubs game. We picked the Viceroy because we liked the location and the prices were so reasonable for this area. We found out that they were having a Don Julio tasting with five course meal special. It was an awesome experience. Chi, the beverage manager, long with Javier, the bartender scientist, crafted some of the best cocktails we’ve ever had, along with a wonderful curated meal by Chef David. I would highly recommend the Viceroy to anybody looking for a getaway that’s not going to break the bank, but give you a five star experience."

Theses people know their stuff. Shi and Javier are two of the best bartenders I've ever had the pleasure of meeting. Stay here... it amazing."
