Vantage Hospitality
8th largest hotel company in the world

With over $1 million in renovations, including a complete overhaul of all 95 rooms and suites, the Lexington Inn & Suites, located at 1585 Dundee in Chicago/Elgin, IL, is now open and ready to take advantage of its close proximity to O'Hare Airport and downtown Chicago.

"We're very excited to be a part of Lexington," said Ankit (Andy) Desai, owner of the property.  "I have hotels under other brands, but I've heard so much about the unique opportunities at Vantage through their membership model that I decided to give it a try with our Chicago property.  So far, I have been very happy with the personal attention and I'm looking forward to taking full advantage of their resources now that we are completing our renovations and open for business."

Serving a complimentary deluxe continental breakfast daily, the Lexington Inns & Suites also has a meeting facility that can accommodate up to 70 people.  In addition to new, large guestrooms, the property also offers suites with Jacuzzis and private patios.
"Andy is the perfect example of the type of Lexington owner we want," said Bill Hanley, Group President of the Lexington Collection.  "He's a very smart business man, he's been in the industry for some time and he understands that a brand like Lexington can allow him to pay lower fees, make more money, and run his hotel the way he knows is best.  He's done an outstanding job with the renovations at the Chicago/Elgin property and we are honored to have him and his property in the Vantage family."

Hanley expects Lexington to add at least 15 properties by the end of the year.  The Lexington brands currently include 25 properties either in the system or under development throughout the United States and China.
