Fairmont Chicago, Fairmont Gold has a refreshed interior design. Located in the heart of Chicago, this hotel provides a luxury oasis among the concrete jungle. The interior designers used their research-rooted design approach to deliver a bold look and feel.

The hotel-within-a-hotel concept uses an elevated, contemporary design that tells an irresistible story. The guest journey starts on the 15th floor, with a sense of arrival as guests use a private elevator to enter the Gold Lounge. The space has an intimate feel with a new seating plan, finish and flooring. Newly dedicated spaces like flex gathering spaces, library and lounge invite visitors to make themselves at home in elegant surroundings.

The Gold-level guestrooms and suites have been revitalized with new finishes and furnishings, carpet and a redesigned bathroom that represent the golden treatment. The historic Rouge meeting room, once a supper club has been reimagined. New interior architecture includes uncovering previously covered windows and raising the sunken floor to open the space and increase natural light. Every Gold space tells its own story and carries the luxurious attitude of our famous muse.
