Paws & the City: A Chic Chicago Retreat for a Cause
Treat yourself to a weekend of luxury, style, and soul in the heart of the Windy City — all while supporting animal rescue. Your two-night stay at the iconic Chicago Athletic Association Hotel places you directly across from Millennium Park, surrounded by architectural splendor and timeless elegance. This historic boutique hotel is known for its modern-meets-Gilded-Age charm, and it sets the stage for a truly rejuvenating experience. Begin your indulgence with a chef-curated dinner for two at Cindy’s Rooftop, perched atop the Chicago Athletic Association Hotel and part of the acclaimed Boka Restaurant Group. Known for seasonal dishes and sweeping panoramic views of Lake Michigan and the skyline, this exclusive experience captures the flavor and flair of Chicago’s most beloved rooftop destination.
The heart of this experience? A Wendella 90-minute Architectural River Cruise. Glide beneath the bridges and through 130 years of history while expert guides unveil Chicago’s most iconic buildings. It’s breathtaking, educational, and absolutely unforgettable. And because every great getaway deserves a smooth ride, we’ve thrown in a $100 BP gas card to fuel your adventure—no ruff roads or cat-astrophes getting there and back! Whether you're a lover of skyline views, storied buildings, gourmet dining, or just need a break with purpose — this exclusive package brings it all together. Valued at over $1,900. Donated by Chicago Athletic Association Hotel, Debbie and Joe Shepard, Kristi and Dave Serra, Boka Restaurant Group, Doy and Mike DiNardo, Heather and Darrell Proffitt, Wendella Tours & Cruises |
