<p>EVANSTON, Ill. – Hotel Orrington, located on Chicago’s North Shore, will become the Hilton Orrington on May 4, 2010.</p>
<p>The nine-story 269 room hotel at 1710 Orrington Ave., Evanston, Ill., first opened its doors in 1923.  Totally renovated and reopened in 2005, Hotel Orrington continues to be the premier locale for upscale parties, bar and bat mitzvahs and glamorous weddings. The hotel also offers meeting planners an IACCC-approved 12,000 square foot Conference Center for meetings from 10 to 300.  Dining options at Hotel Orrington include The Globe Café, Futami Restaurant and Indigo lounge.</p>
<p>“The Hilton name will bring additional traffic to the hotel and increase awareness of this great property,” said general manager Russ Abell, who will continue as general manager of the property.<br />
Abell said staffing will remain the same with Randy Pluta handling sales and marketing and Glenn Griffith overseeing catering.</p>
<p>“Our meeting and event planners and guests will receive the same outstanding service from our experienced team of hospitality professionals,” Abel said.</p>
<p>Located in the heart of Evanston, Ill., Hotel Orrington is within walking distance of 186 specialty shops, 72 restaurants, the Northwestern University campus, and beautiful Lake Michigan, and is just 30 minutes from O&#8217;Hare International Airport.  Hotel Orrington is managed by Magna Hospitality.</p>
