The liquor license is filed under Quadrum Hospitality Group LLC, also known as Quadrum Global.

Arlo Chicago is described as “the ideal home base for today’s explorers, delivering an imaginative platform for local experiences. Arlo creates an unplaceable — yet undeniable — sense of belonging, it is a haven for wanderers with purpose, a place to tuck away for a much-needed nap amidst your urban safari.”
“Our hotels become your living room away from home, your workshop away from the office, where inspiration awaits. With hotels in New York City, Miami, Chicago, and expanding to other cities, Arlo is the ideal choice for your next adventure.”
“The city’s hottest new hotel, formerly Hotel Julian, puts you at the heart of downtown Chicago, steps from iconic Millennium Park. Our guest rooms feature modern design and smart amenities, with a new take on the old soul of the landmark 1916 Atlantic Bank building,” the company website states.
In regards to food options at Arlo Chicago, the hotel currently offers room service, as well as their on-site restaurant About Last Knife. The website describes About Last Knife as “our fresh approach to the gastropub. Enjoy New American tapas and classic staples, served up with craft cocktails, local draft beers, and wines by the glass. Or whatever you’re drinking.”
