Luxury – Building The Godfrey

Bathroom Amenities to Feel At Home

Frequent travelers see great importance in the bathroom amenities and products, and we couldn’t agree more. When staying at a hotel, you want to feel as comfortable as you are at home. Through our branding and focus groups before development, we asked travelers what they value in a hotel bathroom and we heard the following:

– Luxurious and high-quality bathroom products

– Large shower with a shower door

– Spacious countertop to place toiletries, blowdryer and more.

We heard these requests loud and clear and we hope our bathrooms will deliver just that. For the bathroom products, we’ve selected a luxurious line called Heeley for our shampoo, conditioner and shower gel.

Our bathroom amenities and products will be personalized for The Godfrey Hotel Boston.

Below is a photo of our shower installation in one of the guest rooms. You can see how clean (pun intended) and spacious the design is, along with the high-end Kohler features to be added soon as well.

We’ll continue to keep you posted on our hotel developments.

Sneak Peek into our Hotel Rooms

We know and understand that a luxurious and comfortable room is critical when traveling, whether it be for business or leisure. That’s why we took great attention and care to the interior design of our rooms.

As a sneak peek into the guest rooms, we will continue the sophisticated feel that is present in our Chicago property’s rooms. Our rooms will have a refined color palette of warm grays, accented by natural walnut. The color palette will be relaxing and welcoming. Custom carpeting, quality bedding and upholstered seating will evoke the refinement and comfort of a well-tailored suite.

What’s more – large windows will flood guest rooms with natural light. Plus rooms with original bay windows will provide an added, dramatic view to the bustling street scene below.

Sound idyllic and luxurious? You be the judge when we open this fall.

Here’s a sneak peek at our room:

The Godfrey Hotel featured in Travel + Leisure Magazine

Travel+Leisure placed The Godfrey at the top of the new hotel list in “Chicago Decoder”. They featured our modern structure and how it “cuts a commanding figure against the Chicago Skyline.”

Although as the new kid on the block, we certainly take advantage of the more modern things we can offer guests, just like T+L mentioned our RFID card scanners. With this, guests don’t even have to juggle everything to simply open their door. Convenience at its finest. To some it may seem like a modern luxury, but to us, it just makes sense.

Chicago is a great city, with plenty to do and see. You never know where you may find the next adventure or even find time to relax. At The Godfrey Hotel, we strive to give you a modern, luxurious experience, so you can find your element.
