As the first boutique-inspired offering from Hyatt Place and the first hotel to open in Lake Forest, IL since 1929, The Forester Hotel is the natural selection for modern comfort and evolutionary service. Founded on the motto of "Love of Science and Nature", the city of Lake Forest has always been at the crossroads of preservation and progress with its open lands backing up to office parks and the cobblestone streets of historic Market Square leading to Starbucks and Williams Sonoma. The Forester is at a similar crossroads safeguarding all of the comforts of Hyatt, like Hyatt Grand Beds, free WiFi, cozy corner sofa-sleepers, and delicious breakfast, while at the same time blazing new trails with boutique offerings including an upscale bistro + bar and over 4,500 square feet of flexible event space.  Blaze your own trail and discover The Forester.
