Itasca, Illinois, September 2015 … Eaglewood Resort & Spa, located in the Northwest suburbs of Chicago, has recently completed a $7.5 million renovation of its AAA Four Diamond Resort. The makeover encompassed a redesign of all 295 guest rooms and suites, resurfaced balconies and patios, a full build-out of three fitness studios, refurbished 6-lane bowling alley, and the addition of a high-end “Grab & Go” Market.
The Resort’s guest rooms and suites, featuring warm and inviting earth tones and geometric furnishings, fall in line with Eaglewood’s traditional Prairie-style design – a staple throughout the entire resort – in homage to renowned architect Frank Lloyd Wright. The makeover included: carpeting, wall vinyl, draperies, sheers, upholstery, updated furnishings and case goods, and a significant technology upgrade to accommodate the modern day guest.
“The design of our guest rooms meets the expectations of today’s traveler, keeping on trend with what we’re seeing in the industry,” said Tom Garcia, general manager of Eaglewood Resort & Spa. “With the addition of the Market, a place to get a quick and healthy meal on the go, and our expanded fitness center, the renovation makes our property inviting for both business and leisure guests alike and lets them keep up with their healthy lifestyles while traveling.”
The guest room project was designed by Moncur Design Associates Inc., based in Toronto – the same group that refurbished the Resort’s state-of-the-art conference center last year. The Market, designed by the Bloomingdale-based Concept Group, was developed as an informal gathering spot for small groups, or a place to connect the tech-savvy individual.
