"An acclaimed Iberian restaurant in Nashville led by chef Jake Howell, who was honored with the James Beard Award for Best Chef: Southeast; it was the city's only finalist in the competition, with winners announced at a ceremony in Chicago." - Missy Frederick
"A longstanding Magnificent Mile luxury stalwart with 339 spacious rooms adorned with floral motifs by David Qian, custom Pratesi linens, and thoughtful in-room touches like soaking tubs with televisions and windowside tables for two. Culinary highlights include the Shanghai Terrace—celebrated for modern Shanghainese, Cantonese, and Sichuanese dishes—and the property’s expansive 15,000-square-foot spa with floor-to-ceiling windows, Biologique Recherche facials, a half-Olympic pool, and a sun deck. Practical perks such as “Peninsula Time” (early check-in/late check-out) and a consecutive Gold Status from EarthCheck appeal to international and eco-conscious travelers." - Heidi Mitchell
"The restaurant at the Peninsula Hotel Chicago is where the two first worked together roughly 16 years ago and marks the origin of their long professional relationship." - Ashok Selvam
"When you think of luxury in Chicago, The Peninsula definitely comes to mind due to its spacious guest rooms, intuitive technology, stunning spa, and glamorous decor. Check out the high-rise's 80-foot pool with floor-to-ceiling windows that overlook the city from the 19th floor, or grab a drink at the cozy European-style café and wine bar, Pierrot Gourmet. Eat dinner one-on-one in your guest room featuring delicious in-room service, and head to the sultry rooftop lounge, Z Bar, for a nightcap. If you're really trying to up the ante, book the romance package for Valentine's Day which includes your suite of choice (pending availability), complimentary breakfast for two, chocolate strawberries, a bottle of Champagne, and rose petals during turndown."

"For discerning families in Chicago, the Peninsula provides packages like Camp Peninsula (with in-room tents and scavenger hunts) and a children’s map from the concierge for city exploration, plus the hotel’s winter-only skating rink where guests can enjoy hot drinks and chalet snacks while skating." - Nina Kokotas Hahn
