You could avoid staying at a Hyatt hotel property in IL or you could keep packing heat but be discreet about how you secure your firearms/holsters/gear.
I've often stayed in hotel property locations & had holsters, guns, ammunition, cleaning products, cases, etc in plain view of repair staff, hotel maids, etc. most could care less & they'd go on with their work, then leave.
At the most, the "MOD"(manager on duty) of the hotel would ask you to check out or vacate if you really wanted to carry guns.
I'm unaware of the new IL state laws/ordinances but in my state the worst a private business could do is trespass you(90-95% of the time it's a simple trespass warning form).
As a hotel security officer, I've worked in a few places where guns & ammunition were not allowed but I didn't strictly enforce it.
I saw one nitwit guest who would stroll around with a large Airsoft pistol claiming he was a "special narcotics agent" .
I had that guy checked out for more than just the OCed pistol.
I'd add that many business travel guests or tourists are so stressed out or distracted the hotel SOPs or rules are the last thing they learn/care about.
Tourists & guests would zone out then "think" they were still in GA/WY/NJ/IN/CA.
I go by the gun-use of force standards where I am not from where I'm from.
