Public Hotel Chicago

Looking for hotels this weekend for an upcoming trip, I stumbled upon this little gem.  Public Hotel in Chicago is not just another new hotel to the block, but one that is trying to take on reinventing the ideal luxury hotel experience--all of this plus rates that are very attractive.  Ian Schrager the man behind the self named company and mastermind of bringing this new concept of "home away from home" to anyone willing to buy into it and stay for a night or two.  His "new" idea is to approach the boutique hotel experience in a authentic way, he claims "“People today are sophisticated and they understand good design, quality, originality and commitment to excellence. They will not accept something derivative and want the ethos and soul of a hotel to be authentic and have character as well as provide impeccable, modern and gracious personalized service that is at the same time luxurious yet down to earth." --WOW, that is a tall order and quite ambitious, I will let you know how he did!~
