Get away for the weekend to the “Windy City”, where skyscrapers stretch toward the heavens and shorter buildings loom large as unrivaled works of art as much as architecture. Lake Michigan laps at the city's doorstep along 29 miles of shoreline adorned with spacious parks, marinas and public beaches. Venerable museums house treasures, and even the most dedicated shoppers can't hope to browse all the glitzy boutiques and department stores along downtown's Magnificent Mile within a single visit.
Experience it all yourself as you spend two nights at The Renaissance Chicago Hotel (AAA 4-diamonds), a premier luxury hotel located at the corner of State Street and Wacker Drive, at the edge of "The Loop" in the heart of downtown Chicago. This downtown Chicago hotel is a place of style, leisure and comfort where the busy traveler can unwind in the heart of the city just blocks from Millennium Park, Macy's (the original Marshall Fields) on State Street, and of course the shops along the Magnificent Mile. Enjoy breakfast in the hotel’s Great Street Restaurant on the morning of your choice during your stay.
Take in a Cubs game at historic Wrigley Field which was built in 1914, and will be playing host to Major League Baseball for the 94th season in 2007 - and to the Cubs for the 92nd year. You’ll receive 4 tickets located in the 4th row behind 3rd base to see the legendary Chicago Cubs take the field against the visiting team.
Have dinner on the evening of your choice at Gibsons Steakhouse, the pinnacle of Gold Coast dining for nearly 2 decades. Gibsons has a subtly antique decor complete with period photographs, he-man drinks and baked potatoes, cordial and candid waiters and boisterous crowd of regulars that represents a remarkable cross-section of occupation and age. Housed in the space made famous by Mr. Kelley's, where Streisand and Sinatra performed, it’s the ultimate adult dinner spot, the favorite watering hole of Chicago politicians, sports honchos and visiting stars.
