The Kimpton Cottonwood Hotel offers conference attendees a rare blend of modern comfort and storied American history. Originally opened in 1916 as the famed Blackstone Hotel, this landmark became a preferred retreat for U.S. presidents traveling through the Midwest, hosting leaders from Herbert Hoover to John F. Kennedy—who celebrated his fifth wedding anniversary here with Jacqueline Kennedy. The hotel also played a role in national political history when Richard Nixon chose its rooftop ballroom to announce his presidential campaign. Today, the Cottonwood’s beautifully restored 1920s architecture, grand gathering spaces, and vibrant Blackstone District location create an inspiring backdrop for meetings and events, giving attendees the chance to connect in a place where history has been made.
