It’s that time of the year — the most wonderful one! With the turkey enjoyed and visions of sugar plums beginning to dance, it’s time to turn your attention to holiday shopping. Chicago’s The Talbott Hotel is ideally located near the city’s Michigan Avenue, a shopper’s paradise.
New this year, The Talbott is introducing new on-demand shopping bag pick-up for guests. Starting at $270, the Holiday Shopping Valet offer ensures your holiday shopping won’t be an arm workout this year.
In addition to the personal shopping valet (from the hotel, the valet will pick up packages and bags throughout the day on Michigan Avenue or Oak Street), the offer also includes a 30-minute foot massage and a travel-sized bag of Molton Brown luxury bath essentials.
Guests receive a dedicated toll-free number to call when they are ready to have bags picked up. Valets will also secure packages in clear shopping bags with a receipt of inventory to keep packages secure. The packages will be available at the front desk.
Through Dec. 23, valets are available daily 10 a.m.–7 p.m.
