Curator Hotel & Resort Collection, a collection of independent hotels and resorts, has added four new members to its growing portfolio of properties from The Neighborhood Hotel located in Little Italy, Chicago; Lincoln Park, Chicago; New Buffalo, Michigan; and Grand Beach, Michigan.
This expansion marks Curator's debut in the Chicago metropolitan area. In Michigan, The Neighborhood Hotel's New Buffalo and Grand Beach locations join the iconic Grand Hotel on Mackinac Island, further enhancing Curator's presence in the region.
“We are delighted to kick off the year by adding these four exceptional hotels in Michigan and Illinois,” Jennifer Barnwell, president of Curator Hotel & Resort Collection, said in a statement. “Each of The Neighborhood Hotel properties combines historical elements with a hip, fresh vibe that caters to adventurers and travelers seeking respite and relaxation. These new member hotels reflect our commitment to delivering exceptional hospitality, and we look forward to creating memorable moments for guests as we continue to grow and enhance our collection of unique and extraordinary hotels.”
