Sable at Navy Pier Chicago, Curio Collection by Hilton

What Sable at Navy Pier Chicago, Curio Collection by Hilton does

Sable at Navy Pier Chicago, Curio Collection by Hilton is a single-asset luxury boutique hotel operating as a franchise property within Hilton's Curio Collection brand. Located at 900 East Grand Avenue on Chicago's Navy Pier lakefront, the property offers 223 guest rooms and suites with floor-to-ceiling windows providing lake and skyline views, in-room 55\" LG Smart TVs, Serenity bedding, and access to an on-site fitness center with Pelotons. The hotel generates revenue across four streams: room accommodations, multi-venue food and beverage (Lirica Restaurant, Offshore Rooftop Bar, Kisbi Coffee), meetings and events (totaling over 40,000 sq ft of event space including a 4,352 sq ft banquet hall and a 36,000 sq ft Offshore event space), and ancillary services such as valet parking and curated packages (breakfast-inclusive, fireworks viewing, romance packages, and Park & Stay).

The property's go-to-market is direct-to-consumer via Hilton's global reservation system and Hilton Honors loyalty program, supplemented by its own website, OTAs, and OpenTable for dining reservations. The customer base spans leisure travelers and tourists (primary segment), business travelers and corporate groups using the meeting venues, and event/wedding planners attracted by the lakefront and rooftop venues. Differentiation is anchored in the irreplaceable Navy Pier waterfront location, the world's largest rooftop bar (Offshore at 20,000 sq ft), the Latin-inspired Lirica restaurant, LEED Silver certification, and an official partnership with Chicago Shakespeare Theatre. The asset is independently owned but operates under Hilton's franchise infrastructure, including Hilton's distribution channels, brand standards, and loyalty integration. The hotel is privately held (not publicly traded as a separate entity), with parent company Hilton providing the brand umbrella.
