Chicago, nicknamed the “Windy City,” is the biggest city in the Midwest. In addition to being the biggest city in the Midwest, Chicago has an even bigger personality. If you’re looking for the perfect place to escape with your girlfriends, look no further than Chi-town.

You’ll only be steps away from Miracle Mile, and you can grab cocktails right in the hotel at The Berkshire Room or the Bordega.
The Magnificent Mile is only steps away from your stay at ACME Hotel Company Chicago and it’s a paradise for shopaholics. With more than 450 retailers, including flagship stores, department stores and three shopping centers, there’s a spot to shop for everyone.
If you time your trip right, you can catch the Magnificent Mile Lights Festival, the largest nighttime parade in the U.S., drawing over one million celebrants along Michigan Avenue.
Brunch is a must in Chi-town and brunch at Summer House is all the vibes.
