The Fitzpatrick Hotel is Irish themed and Irish owned, right in a boffo downtown location perfect for vacationers and business travelers. The hotel is within four blocks of the Magnificent Mile, the John Hancock Center, the Museum of Contemporary Art, and other sites synonymous with the Windy City. Recreational enthusiasts are only four blocks from Lake Michigan, where they can run, walk, bike or skate along a 20 mile long lakefront path, and rent bicycles, in line skates and buggies. Meanwhile, the Fitzpatrick offers a rooftop pool and sundeck, where guests can marvel at spectacular lake and skyline views. They also can work out in the hotel's fitness facility and pamper themselves with manicures, massages and facials in the day spa. European hospitality extends to such extras as free gift wrapping during winter holidays and concierge assistance with bagging hard to get theater tickets. By gosh, if guests request a service the hotel doesn't provide, the staff will find somebody outside the hotel to do it. The Fitzpatrick features what else? an Irish pub, Fitzers, where patrons can enjoy traditional Irish corned beef and cabbage, fish and chips, shepherd's pie, drinks and live acoustical music. In the Breakfast Room, guests can enjoy fixed price buffets of sausage, bacon, eggs, Irish soda bread, muffins, fresh fruit and scones or order breakfasts with Irish sausage, eggs and two types of breakfast pudding. Awashed in regal hues of pinks, greens and golds, guest rooms feature Celtic art, canopied beds with comfy pillowtop mattresses, bookshelves, antique style benches, scalloped curtains and windows that open. Guests also will enjoy refrigerators and trouser presses. European travelers know the Ireland based Fitzpatrick company and enjoy staying at its Chicago hotel. What's more, parents and youngsters have three block walks to the American Girl Place, the nationally known store for dolls and girls' clothing.
