| Tucked
away in the quiet, tree-lined Chestnut Street, Seneca
Hotel provides a relaxing oasis close to the hustle and bustle of the Magnificent
Mile. You can't resist the authentic Italian fare at Contare Ristorante, the old-country
style Italian restaurant at Seneca
. The Tremont
Hotel (E. Chestnut) is another famous landmark on the street. A 1928 building,
the Hotel was completely restored in 1996 and is just a few blocks shy of the
famed Museum of contemporary Arts.
If you love your Sushi and maki rolls,
cab it to the friendly and affordable Hey Sushi on N. Clark Street. The Days
Inn Gold Coast (N. Clark Street) takes you deep into the heart of famed Lincoln
Park, a bustling but primarily residential area. Stroll into the Lincoln Park
Zoo, which offers free entry into the world of Gorillas, Galapagos turtles, Monstrous
monitor lizards, bats and exotic spiders.
Down South on Clark Street,
enjoy great seafood at the primarily corporate hangout called Nick's Fishmarket.
For the no-nonsense stake lover,
there's none better than Pete Miller's Steakhouse at Sherman Avenue. The Best
Western University Plaza isn't far, with an exciting adventure at Lake Michigan
just 4 blocks away. The hotel is easily accessible from public transportation.
Meat lovers have more in store at the much-acclaimed Ruth's Chris Steak
House on N. Dearborn St. Ruth's is conveniently close to Lowe's
House of Blues , where you can marvel at the Gothic, Moroccan, Indian and
American folk art motifs which reflect the ambience of the House of Blues Club
and Restaurant in the same complex. For
haute French fare, Ambria, the 4-Star French restaurant on N. Lincoln Park West
is THE place to dine. Just three blocks away from Lincoln Park, the Majestic
Hotel (West Brampton Ave) holds court. The hotel offers a refreshing start
to your stay with a scrumptious complimentary continental breakfast and afternoon
tea. Its 52 suites feature butler pantries with refrigerator, microwave and wet
bar. Acclaimed for its unique “sense of 19 th century French countryside”, The
Willows Hotel is great for a stay within a stone's throw from Lincoln Park.
Cap your culinary journey with the
fine French fare at Le Titi de Paris, W. Dundee Road. With your droopy eyes and
giddy heart, you can't be persuaded to check into a hotel halfway across town.
Luckily, the delightful La
Quinta Inn Arlington is nearby. Before you nod off into dreamland, take a
moment to admire the spacious, bright baths featuring Corian vanities and the
elegant angled mirrors. After a rejuvenating complimentary breakfast tomorrow
morning, you'll be as good as new. <<--Back |
