What You'll Get
While it may be true that there’s no place like home, it’s also true that people who permanently reside in five-star hotels are less likely to get their hands stuck in cookie jars or their heads stuck in cat flaps. Avoid the trappings of your domicile with today’s Groupon: for $125, you get a one-night stay in a deluxe suite at the Seneca Hotel & Suites in downtown Chicago (up to a $269 value).
The Seneca pampers guests with spacious suites, numerous amenities, and three in-house dining options. The hotel's proximity to nearby attractions such as the John Hancock Center, the Magnificent Mile, Water Tower Place, and the Museum of Contemporary Art, makes it an ideal destination for visiting guests or stressed out Chicagoans determined to escape the three walls of their triangular apartments. Each deluxe suite boasts a living room, dining room, and full-service kitchen, as well as DIRECTV and HBO. The elegant décor adds to the suite's warm, homey ambience, with high ceilings, crown moldings, Queen Anne–style furnishings, and blackout draperies obscuring nosey pigeons from narrating your actions to passing motorcades. The hotel also provides guests with access to a fitness center, a rooftop sundeck, a nail salon, and laundry service.
After a long day of sightseeing or testing the absorbency of the suite's upscale terry cloth towels, satisfy cravings for a hearty meal without traversing pavement. Choose one of three in-house dining options, including Francesca's On Chestnut upscale Italian fare, Saloon Steakhouse's authentic Chicago chophouse cuisine, and Chestnut Street Cafe's casual breakfast and lunch dishes. While the Seneca does offer similar specials and packages, this Groupon still offers the best deal available.
This Groupon does not cover the additional 15.4% tax charged to all hotel guests, and the particular deluxe suite is based on availability.
