Schaumburg, IL, July 28, 2008 - Hostmark Hospitality Group, one of the nation’s largest independent third party management companies, announced the addition of the Hotel Blake (www.hotelblake.com), located in Chicago, Illinois, to their management portfolio of upscale hotels.
The Hotel Blake is an exclusive urban hideaway brimming with well-appointed accommodations. Offering 162 stylish and refined guest rooms, including six suites, the Hotel Blake features 12-foot ceilings, stunning downtown views and personalized services. With 4,000 square feet of impressive gathering space, the hotel is ideal for memorable meetings and special events, and expert event planners are available to assist with every need. Amenities include a 24-hour business center and 24- hour fitness facility, boasting state-of-the-art cardio and weightlifting equipment.
The elegant atmosphere of the Custom House Restaurant (www.customhouse.cc), located on the first floor of the hotel, celebrates the early days of the Chicago South Loop. Paying tribute to the Windy City's diverse character, Chef Shawn McClain has created a menu showcasing a delightful fusion of contemporary American cuisine with Mediterranean influences. Guests can sample a creative array of game, poultry, and beef delicacies along with wine selections from some of the finest West Coast vineyards.
With unrivaled proximity to Chicago’s premier downtown attractions, the Hotel Blake is conveniently located in the heart of the Financial District in the Printer’s Row neighborhood. Located just steps away from State Street and a short walk from Michigan Avenue, the area is a shopper’s dream. For some fresh air, head to nearby Millennium Park, or to the Lake Michigan waterfront for miles of jogging, walking, rollerblading and biking trails. And in the evening, the Hotel Blake staff recommends a stroll down to the vibrant Printer's Row District - a diverse neighborhood bursting with eclectic restaurants and shops, hopping bars, and funky nightclubs.
