I cant wait for Seattle. It is one of the more under-developed lux cities w/ no FS/MO/RC since the Fairmont mgt take over of the FS.

Too many, too fast?
Who thinks that Four Seasons are opening too many hotels, too fast?

Yes but it is the OWNERS who are responsible for renovations, not Four Seasons. Maybe they should choose their owners better?

No, it opens next month - July - but only half the rooms.

London is renovating this fall, Chicago could sure use more than the sprucing up that they have been doing.

I have a reservation at the Four Seasons in Chicago next month. What's wrong with the renovations? Robyn

Website mentions that they are accepting reservations for arrivals from 15 June 2008.

I think the complete opposite - I do not think they are opening enough hotels.

The renovation in Chicago is nice if you like modern. It does not look like a traditional FS. However, the staff in this hotel have really gone WAY downhill. We had a laundry list of issues with our most recent stay. I would recommend the Park Hyatt, Penn or Ritz (owned by FS). Change your reservation.

Although I am always pining for new build FS/RC/MOs, the most tangible downside is watering down of the management/service ranks.
Obviously, CHI wasnt new construction...but the chains's growth has a system-wide service effect.
Brian, could you post a full review?
