Boutique Printer’s Row Property’s Romance Package is Easy on the Wallet, Big On Atmosphere, Luxury and Relaxation

All you need is love – and the charming and elegant atmosphere at Chicago’s Hotel Blake – for a perfect couples’ getaway that’s easy on the wallet. Located in the heart of Chicago’s Printer’s Row close to museums, shops, restaurants and theater, this luxury boutique hotel is offering a Romance Package for just $159/night through February 28, 2009 that includes luxury accommodations for two as well as a box of Vosges chocolates to share.

“Many hotel romance packages are full of extra amenities and services, and as a result, can be extremely pricy,” said Troy Jones, Director of Sales and Marketing for Hotel Blake. “In the current economic environment, we felt it was more useful to offer couples a simple, wallet-friendly opportunity to escape and just focus on spending time together, rather than all those trappings. Hotel Blake has a luxurious, warm and chic setting that exudes romance, not to mention a terrific location for shopping, dining and sight-seeing.”

Couples looking for an economical getaway to relax and reconnect will be thrilled with the spacious guest rooms and rich, warm, contemporary décor. The property evokes the feeling of staying in a gracious private residence, while the warm, red furnishings, cozy couches and beautifully designed luxurious rooms set the mood for a romance-filled night or weekend.

Decorated in warm, jewel-toned hues with richly-finished woods, Hotel Blake’s 162 spacious luxury guest rooms and suites challenge the notion of a typical Chicago hotel room.
