The Axis Hotel

The Axis Hotel

Location:

Moline, IL, USA

Scope:

The Axis Hotel, a historic 1920s property listed on the National Register of Historic Places, underwent a remarkable adaptive reuse that preserved its ornate details. Now part of Hilton's Tapestry Collection, EIS Hospitality collaborated closely with partners to execute custom millwork for both public spaces and guest rooms, enhancing the boutique hotel’s unique character.

The project presented numerous challenges due to the building’s age, including the need to accommodate original structural columns and existing finishes. Our team’s meticulous attention to detail ensured that every aspect of the renovation was executed flawlessly. This included the creation of decorative marquetry in the lobby bar and metal inlay on the building’s columns, both of which complemented the hotel’s original charm.

EIS expertly engineered, manufactured, and installed the lobby millwork, reception desk, custom wall panels, and column wraps, ensuring a seamless integration of new and historic elements. Additionally, we assisted the property in staining various interior elements to match the building’s original finishes, maintaining the authenticity of the space.

The successful transformation of The Axis Hotel highlighted EIS's commitment to excellence in luxury hospitality design, creating an inviting atmosphere that celebrates its storied past while providing modern comfort for guests.
