CHICAGO - Aug. 2, 2006-- Hilton Hotels announced today the opening of its newest property, the Hilton Suites Chicago Magnificent Mile, an upscale, all-suite property located in the heart of Chicago's most exciting neighborhood. The hotel recently completed a multimillion dollar renovation to redesign the hotel's 345 guest suites with guests' needs in mind. As the most recent addition to the Hilton brand in downtown Chicago, the Hilton Suites Chicago Magnificent Mile is unique in its close proximity to the nightlife, shopping and dining for which the Magnificent Mile is famous. 

The Hilton Suites Chicago Magnificent Mile is operated by PIL II, L.P., under a franchise license agreement with Hilton Inns, Inc., a franchising subsidiary of Beverly Hills-based Hilton Hotels Corporation. The hotel is managed by The Procaccianti Group. 

"We are excited to welcome the Hilton Suites Chicago Magnificent Mile to our premier collection of hotels in Chicago," said Jeff Diskin, senior vice president, Hilton brand management. "With its spacious all-suite accommodations, upscale amenities and personalized service, the hotel is designed to help guests get the most out of their journey, whether it's for work, pleasure, or a little bit of both." 

Each of the newly-renovated, spacious two-room guest suites is furnished with the new Hilton Serenity Bed, which features the Serta Suite Dreams(R) mattress and box springs, Pacific Coast(R) down duvet, Super Topper mattress pads, and high-quality linens and pillows. All rooms also have the Hilton Serenity Bath Collection of exclusive Crabtree & Evelyn La Source(R) bath amenities. In-room entertainment offerings include the easy-to-set Hilton Family alarm clock with MP3 player connectivity and 32" flat-screen televisions. 

Guests can enjoy stunning city and lake views from the 30th-floor rooftop fitness center, featuring a heated indoor pool with spectacular Lake Michigan views, sauna and whirlpool, and a complete range of cardio equipment. After a workout, guests can relax with a beverage and hors d'oeuvres at the Down Bar, or get their daily coffee fix at Blenz Coffee Bar & Pastry Shop. For heartier fare, Mrs. Park's Tavern serves up all-American cuisine and the great steaks for which Chicago is famous in a warm, casual setting. The hotel offers the Hilton Eat Right(R) menu, which provides health-conscious diners with delicious and nutritionally-balanced meal options. 

The hotel offers high-speed wireless (WiFi) and wired internet in guestrooms and public areas, and a state-of-the-art business center. With over 10,000 square feet of flexible meeting and banquet space, complete audio/visual support, and a professional catering team, the Hilton Suites Chicago Magnificent Mile can easily accommodate meetings and special events for groups of up to 300.
