Next time you’re yearning to escape to the Amalfi Coast but can’t jet off to Italy, don’t think you have to be deprived of a slice of the good life. The Amalfi Hotel Chicago exudes the opulence, charm and tranquility that its namesake is known for, while infusing the atmosphere with a modern twist. So if you’re looking for an Italian getaway without having to dust off your passport, say ciao to your new favorite hotel.

Located in Chicago’s fashionable River North District, Amalfi is close to the Loop, the Magnificent Mile, Merchandise Mart and Michigan Avenue, so the trendiest restaurants, the most upscale shops and the hottest nightclubs are never far away. Upon arrival, guests are assigned to an Experience Designer who will help customize their trip. Think of your Experience Designer as less of a concierge and more of a genie in a bottle who can get you into the swankiest nightclubs and set you up with the best tables at the hottest new restaurants.

The hotel’s 215 newly renovated guestrooms are available in two categories to fit your lodging needs: Deluxe Rooms and One Bedroom Suites. Every room is clad in a sea of rich autumn colors so you can retreat from the sensory overload of Chicago’s busy streets. Enjoy the array of luxe amenities including LCD TVs, in-room CD and DVD players, microfiber robes and slippers, pillow-top mattresses, Egyptian cotton sheets and Aveda spa products. Complimentary high-speed Internet and Wi-Fi is available, and you can even borrow CDs and DVDs from the hotel’s personal library if a relaxing night in is what you’re craving. Wake-up every morning to a free breakfast of Italian goodies provided on every floor, so you won’t even have to change out of your pajamas to get your java fix.

More than just a place to rest your head at night, Amalfi is an experience that will heighten your time in the Windy City. In-room spa treatments are available for those who wish to de-stress or look their best for a night out on the town. Hard bodies and workaholics will delight in the fact that Amalfi’s fitness center and business center are both free and open 24 hours a day. If Amalfi Hotel Chicago doesn’t have you singing “that’s amore,” we don’t know what will.
