Item Description

The gift certificate includes a one night stay at the Chicago Athletic Association.

Located at: 12 S Michigan Avenue Chicago, IL 60603

 

With echoes of billiard balls, poker chips, and clinking glasses frozen within its walls, this 1890’s Venetian Gothic landmark in the Chicago Loop near Millennium Park springs back to life as an incomparable historic downtown Chicago hotel—where the spirit of play reigns supreme.

After all, this is the city where the can-and-will-do attitude of Ernie “Let’s Play Two!” Banks lives on, where the father of Chicago blues, Muddy Waters, shook all night long at the Checkerboard Lounge, and Sir Duke tickled the ivories at The Blue Note.

And this is the club whose historic members swam with five-time Olympic gold medalist Johnny Weissmuller—a.k.a. the original Hollywood Tarzan—and watched their fellow member Pudge Heffelfinger own so much end zone, he became football’s first pro.

Today, Chicago Athletic Association is both a stunning downtown Chicago hotel offering outstanding guest rooms and suites, and a historic monument to the big-shouldered, switch hitting spirit that defines our city with a location in the Chicago Loop.
