The JW Marriott Chicago, the city’s first JW Marriott branded hotel, opened on November 11. Featuring a neoclassical design and soothing colour palette, the hotel fills the first 12 floors of architect Daniel Burnham's historic Continental & Commercial National Bank Building in Chicago's financial district. The property contains 610 guestrooms (including 29 corner suites), 36 meeting rooms, a 8,500-square-foot Grand Ballroom and a 6,000-square-foot Burnham Ballroom that incorporates the building's original domed ceiling. The hotel offers two dining options: The Florentine, an Italian steakhouse, and a lounge serving more casual plates and sushi.
