“This sleek, polished black granite and green terra cotta tower, with a gold and bronze-tipped spire, looks like a corked bottle of champagne. Designed by the Burnham Brothers in 1929, the Carbide & Carbon Building is a stunning example of Art Deco architecture. Stretching 37 stories high and set on Michigan Avenue, this building was designated a Chicago landmark in 1996. In the early 2000s, the building was transformed into the Hard Rock Hotel Chicago and in 2018, the building changed hands once again to the St. Jane Hotel.”
“The luxurious St. Jane Hotel on Michigan Avenue in Chicago is one of several hotels that have been offering bond-type certificates for future stays. The way this “Buy Now, Stay Later” program works is that you can purchase in increments of $100 and 60 days after purchase, the certificate’s value increases to $150.”

“The St. Jane and other boutique Chicago hotels tap into the city’s history. In a nod to (Jane) Addams’ social work, the hotel donates a portion of its revenue to the Jackson Chance Foundation. That money helps pay the parking fees — which can be exorbitant in downtown Chicago — for families with children in the neonatal intensive care unit at the nearby Lurie Childen’s Hospital.
“Your dedicated concierge staff takes care of any needs. Book the Only Us package that begins with a glass of complimentary champagne upon arrival; breakfast in bed; and a romantic dinner for two at Free Rein, including a complimentary bottle of wine. Tower rooms feature black walls and velvet furniture in jewel tones lending a sexy ambience and sweeping views of the Chicago skyline, river and Lake Michigan are inspiring.”
Winner Best Hotel Upper Mid-Scale Category “The Gold Key Awards program recognizes the most influential and innovative design work in the international hospitality industry. To be eligible, new construction, conversion or renovation projects must have been completed from July 1, 2018 to July 1, 2019. Finalists and winners are determined by a jury of industry leaders from the operations, development and investment sectors of hospitality.”
“Formally the Carbide and Carbon Building, this Loop neighborhood site is now the luxurious St. Jane Hotel. Completed in 1929 by the firm Burnham Brothers with an Art-Deco design style, the building’s façade is composed of polished black granite, green and gold terra-cotta, and gold leaf with bronze trim. The lobby has frosted glass fixtures and Belgian marble. As a landmark, the building underwent a $106 million restoration in 2004.”
“The rooms, designed by Simeone Deary Design Group, are likewise a cut above. Ranging in size from 500-square-foot studios to a 1,400-square-foot two-bedroom presidential-style suite, they sport parquet wood flooring, stunning designer lighting and black painted walls that frame the unmatched views like eyeliner. “There’s such a wow factor,” Cornelious says. “It has a residential feeling.”
“I am pretty sure that if you’re good in this life, when you get to the pearly gates, St. Peter hands you a kitten-soft robe from the Art Deco St. Jane hotel and says, “Here you go. This is what we all wear up here.” I was set to leave my moody Victorian suite (complete with interior brass stairwell!) and start my day, but I hadn’t counted on the heavenly perfection of this garment.”
