Chicago Hotels Offer Special "Toulouse-Lautrec" Packages
Art lovers visiting Chicago from mid-July to early October, 2005, will be pleased to know that a number of the city's best hotels are offering special packages featuring free admission to the exciting major exhibition Toulouse-Lautrec and Montmartre, on view at the Art Institute of Chicago from July 16 to October 10, 2005. Each hotel creates a package that includes overnight accommodations, two exhibition tickets (to be undated and untimed between the dates of July 16-September 25; to be dated and timed during the last two weeks of the exhibition, September 26-October 10) that also permit entry to the rest of the museum, possible special amenities of the hotel's choosing, plus an exclusive Museum Shop bonus—a choice of an unframed exhibition poster of Toulouse-Lautrec's Moulin Rouge, La Goulue with a purchase of $50 or more, a 20% discount on a purchase of $100 or more (this discount may not be combined with any other discount offer), or an umbrella featuring a detail from Toulouse-Lautrec's At the Moulin Rouge, with a purchase of $200 or more.
Participating hotels are located in one of two exciting neighborhoods:
Chicago's Loop, just south of the Chicago River, home to the Art Institute, Millennium Park, Grant Park, State Street ("that Great Street") shopping, and anchored by Marshall Field's department store and the Shubert, Auditorium, and Chicago theaters.
The Magnificent Mile, North Michigan Avenue between the Chicago River and Oak Street Beach, with great restaurants, entertainment, and shopping-Water Tower Place, 900 North Michigan, and Chicago Place for starters.
Whether visiting from afar or leaving the suburbs for a weekend on the town, guests may choose from hotels that combine comfort, convenience, and class with the chance to view this season's must-see special exhibition at one of the world's great art museums.
Unless specifically noted, all packages are subject to taxes and gratuities and are based upon availability. Reservations are required.
