Schaumburg Hyatt completes $32 million renovation

SCHAUMBURG -- Hyatt Regency Woodfield recently completed a 12-month, $32 million renovation featuring a fresh, modern redesign as well as upscale services and amenities.

Serving as general manager, James Gould said the renovation includes an overhaul of all public spaces and each of the 470 guest rooms. All rooms feature a 37-inch, flat-screen Sharp LCD HDTVs. A fitness center and indoor and outdoor pool also are included in the mix at the hotel, 1800 E. Golf Road.

Fresh 1800, a French-inspired restaurant, opened in early December. This spring, Hyatt will add an outdoor herb garden where, in season, fresh herbs will be picked for use by the Fresh 1800 culinary staff.

There are several amenities for the business traveler, including daily breakfast, Internet access and meeting rooms.

There are also special offers for "Girls Night Out," "Kids Night Out" and "Our Night Out" weekend packages.

Hyatt Regency Woodfield was acquired by The Harp Group, A Cresendo Co., in joint venture partnership with Prudential Real Estate Investors in June 2007. The hotel is managed by Oak Brook-based Portfolio Hotels & Resorts, a hospitality management company that specializes in managing unique, boutique-style hotels, destination resorts and significant urban hotels in domestic and international markets.
