Chicago Marriott Lincolnshire Resort Reopens
November 17, 2017
Chicago Marriott Lincolnshire Resort has unveiled the details of its $25 million renovation that has transformed nearly every aspect of the resort — from introducing two new restaurants to the Chicagoland dining scene, Three Embers and Wrights Brew & Bistro, adding a full-service Starbucks Café, new day Spa Xhale Spa and renovating all the resort guest rooms with comfort and modern technology in mind. The iconic resort is managed by The Bricton Group and home of the award-winning Marriott Theatre.
One of the major changes that took place during the transformation was the complete overhaul of the former King’s Wharf restaurant space. Succeeding the 40-year local favorite are two new dining destinations; the more upscale Three Embers and the more casual Wrights Brew & Bistro.
The new, 5,000-sf Lakeside Pavilion boasts unobscured views of Lake Lincolnshire, Crane’s Landing Golf Course and surrounding wooded areas. The space accommodates up to 400 guests for a seated dinner and the adjoining lakeside patio offers more than 2,500 sf of open-air space. The Lakeside Pavilion is a year-round, flexible event space, equipped with heating and air-conditioning, making it suitable for all seasons.
All guest rooms received a top-to-bottom makeover, creating a relaxing environment with considerate details. The reimagined rooms offer a spacious and upgraded look complete with tailored solutions that are based on consumer insights, while locally inspired accents offer a sense of place and connection to the resort’s 175 acres of natural beauty just outside the new windows. Marriott’s modern design includes platform beds to align with seating; contemporary wall graphics with jade and teal schemes; supportive seating to cater to various guest activities (working, relaxing, eating, etc.) and flexible work spaces. In most king bedded accommodations, bathtubs have been replaced with deluxe walk-in showers and bright, spa-like lighting to provide a relaxed and upgraded bath experience.
