NEW YORK, NY – Loews
Hotels & Resorts, a wholly owned-subsidiary of Loews Corporation (NYSE: L),
announced the company completed the acquisition of the 556-room InterContinental
Chicago O’Hare Hotel.
Located less than
two miles from O’Hare Airport and just 13 miles from downtown Chicago, the
newly named Loews Chicago O’Hare Hotel has immediately been converted to the
Loews Hotels brand.
The hotel is across
the street from the Donald E. Stephen’s Convention Center, adjacent to the

Entertainment District. Loews Chicago
O’Hare features three restaurants and bars, more than 53,000 square feet of
meeting and event space, and a curated art gallery.

“As we grow and
expand the brand, we always look for properties that appeal to all kinds of
travelers—leisure travelers, the business traveler as well as groups,” said Paul
Whetsell, President & CEO, Loews Hotels & Resorts.
“Loews Hotels has a strong presence in
serving the meetings market and we’re excited about the wealth of meetings and
event opportunities that the addition of Loews Chicago O’Hare will provide for
our customers.”
This addition is part of Loews Hotels & Resorts
expanding their footprint throughout the Midwest.
Earlier this month, the company acquired the Graves 601 hotel,
now renamed Loews Minneapolis Hotel, and in February 2015, the 400-room new
build Loews Chicago Hotel, located in the heart of downtown, will open. Loews Hotels continues to add properties in
gateway cities and resort destinations.
