Chicago hotels struggling to staff up for full reopening must wait for $75M in federal relief

Tyler LaRiviere/Sun-Times Chicago’s largest and grandest hotels are reawakening from a pandemic-induced slumber. But they’ll apparently have to wait for the financial relief they need to fully reopen, even if occupancy rates rise and the demand for rooms is there. Michael Jacobson, president and CEO of the Illinois Hotel & Lodging Association, has been told he’ll have to wait until late summer to find out whether Mayor Lori Lightfoot will grant his request for a hotel-only version of the Payroll Protection Program that helped restaurants survive the pandemic. But Lightfoot isn’t ready to decide. She’s still waiting for final federal guidance on the preliminary edict that no new stimulus money can be used to cancel plans to refinance some city debt.

We appreciate the collaboration from all involved to make this a reality.”
