Cicero's Development Corp. Selected to Renovate Historic Alise Boston Hotel
PLAINFIELD, IL — Cicero's Development Corp. announced today that it has the distinction of being selected to renovate The Alise Boston, a 56-room boutique hotel located in Boston's historic South End.
Formally known as the Chandler Inn, it was renamed The Alise Boston in the first public step in its re-branding as part of the Seattle-based Staypineapple chain, which purchased the property in February. The hotel will undergo a significant makeover to its aesthetics, service and amenities to make it the embodiment of Staypineapple's vision for what a refined, urban, classic, yet modern hotel should be. Renovations are scheduled to be completed by the end of 2018, creating additional value throughout the property for hotel guests.
"Pineapplization" of The Alise Boston by Cicero's will include renovating the lobby, along with adding new flooring, paint, pineapple wall coverings, wall sconces, chandeliers and other interior improvements as the hotel receives the signature Staypineapple look. Guest rooms will be furnished with custom platform bed frames, headboards and dressers, while guests will be pampered in European-style bedding including two separate duvets. No changes are being made to the hotel's first story facade in a nod to maintaining the historical character of the South End neighborhood. The Alise Boston is just steps away from Back Bay and many of the city's famous historical sites, stores and restaurants.
"We're really enjoying working with the Staypineapple team, especially in such a historically important city as Boston," said Sam Cicero, Jr., president of Cicero's Development Corp. "Renovation of The Alise Boston is bringing new life to this 1920s building by combining irreplaceable vintage features with a fresh, new modern feel to create a one of a kind space."
Staypineapple represents a brand of nine privately owned and managed hotels in Seattle, Portland, San Diego, San Francisco, Chicago and Boston.
