GREENBELT, MD.  June 7, 2017 - Chesapeake Hospitality, a dynamic third-party hotel management company, announced today that it will manage the newly opened Crowne Plaza Chicago SW Hotel in Burr Ridge, Illinois. Chesapeake Hospitality President Kim Sims made the announcement.

The 123-room Crowne Plaza Chicago SW Hotel, which opened to the public on May 31, is a full-service property with boutique-style rooms and state-of-the-art work stations. With nearly 7,500 square feet of flexible meeting space, business and fitness centers and an indoor pool, the Crowne Plaza Chicago SW Hotel is a multi-faceted property for both business and leisure travel in Chicagoland.

“As we celebrate 60 years of successful and innovative hotel management, we are extremely proud to add this brand-new Crowne Plaza property to our growing portfolio of full-service properties nationally,” said Sims. “This hotel is directly reflective of our objective to pursue upscale management opportunities in prime locations. From a strategic perspective, these properties are aligned with our expertise in making food and beverage a profitable entity for our owners and delivering a quality experience by recruiting the best industry talent.”

Located in the thriving community of Burr Ridge, the hotel includes Poets Modern Cocktails and Eats. The restaurant offers eclectic regional cuisine and share fare, including sandwiches, salads, burgers and flatbreads, which are sourced from local farms when possible, as well as classic and artisan cocktails, local brews, and wines.

“With an ideal location and brand—Crowne Plaza—this was an amazing opportunity to make our vision for a great hotel in Burr Ridge a reality,” said the hotel's owner Suresh Sukhramani. “Partnering with Chesapeake has also been a critical part of this vision because we know they can deliver what it takes to make this hotel a success.”

Conveniently located off Interstate 55 at 300 South Frontage Road, the hotel is just minutes away from Chicago Midway Airport and Downtown Chicago and within close proximity to some of Chicago's exciting attractions, including the Brookfield and Lincoln Park Zoos, Whittaker Park, Chicagoland Speedway, Toyota Park, home to the MLS Chicago Fire and a variety of upscale shopping and world-class dining options.

Chesapeake Hospitality recently announced the management of the new Hyde Resort & Residences in Hollywood, Florida, a spectacular 367 suite luxury condo hotel. The company manages more than 30 properties nationally, including the Georgian Terrace in Atlanta, the Hotel Indigo Baltimore Downtown and The Showboat Hotel in Atlantic City.
