London hotelier Ennismore has designed an outpost of The Hoxton, including a co-working lobby space and rooftop pool, on the site of an old meatpacking facility in Chicago

The Hoxton Chicago marks the third US outpost of The Hoxton, following others in Portland, Oregon and Brooklyn, New York.

Ennismore's in-house design studio built the new 12-storey complex on a plot that was previously home to a former meatpacking facility in the city's Fulton Market. It is located within the trendy downtown area West Loop, which is also home to members' club Soho House and the Ace Hotel.

The Hoxton Chicago boasts the brand's first-ever rooftop pool, wellness studio, and a two-floor lobby with a coworking space for non-guests.

Ennismore shaped the 182 guest rooms with concrete ceilings and "warehouse-style" windows that allude to the area's industrial past. Two-toned walls of white and muted rose add a subtle warmth.
