Amalfi Hotel's First Holiday Packages Spotlight Magnificent Mile and River North Shopping

September 10, 2004 -- The Amalfi Hotel Chicago invites guests "home for the holidays" during their first year on the Chicago hotel scene. Located just steps from Michigan Avenue, the boutique property at 20 W. Kinzie Street offers both extravagant shopping packages along the "Magnificent Mile," and exclusive shopping bonuses at the unique home decor and furnishings boutiques in the River North neighborhood. Packages are valid from Friday, November 19 - Thursday, December 30, 2004.

"We offer residential-style luxuries at the Amalfi Hotel, and because the comforts of home are so important to people, it makes sense to partner with the unique furniture and home accessories retailers in our neighborhood for holiday shopping excursions," said Paul Drummond, maestro and general manager for the 215-room hotel.

Guests choosing the "Home for the Holidays" package will be treated to exclusive gifts-with-purchase from members of the Chicago Furniture District just steps away in the chic River North neighborhood. Within this collection of distinctive stores, shoppers will find exclusive collectibles and one-of-a-kind home décor and furnishings -- from Asian antiques to original art glass and inspired design elements. Guests will also enjoy one overnight stay in a deluxe room, one complimentary, hand-blown glass holiday ornament from No Place Like, a complimentary cocktail and hors d'oeuvres reception, "buon giorno" breakfast, and exclusive gift-with-purchase offers from participating stores. Package prices are: from $159 per night, plus tax (one king bed, double occupancy) and from $199 per night, plus tax (two queen beds, up to four guests).

"We hope our guests return each year to add to their holiday ornament collection," added Drummond.

The "White Lights and Caviar" package celebrates the magic of the holidays along the Magnificent Mile. Take $2,000 in Magnificent Mile shopping certificates and shop 'til you drop! Relax in a 2-room suite afterwards with in-room massages for two, and then enjoy a private, 1-hour tour of the spectacular white lights along the Magnificent Mile in a private limousine while indulging in caviar and sparkling Italian wine. Guests also receive a complimentary cocktail and hors d'oeuvres reception and complimentary "buon giorno" breakfast. The "White Lights and Caviar" package is priced from $3,000 per night, plus tax (double occupancy).

There are additional packages available. Call to inquire about additional holiday offerings including: "The Big Red Package," with special goodies and pricing for the Chicago Children's Museum's "Clifford The Big Red Dog(" celebration at Navy Pier, and our "New Year's Eve Celebration Package."For reservations or more information, call 312.395.9000 or visit amalfihotelchicago.com.
