Chicago suburbanites are one of the most important markets for the downtown hotels, and the

Renaissance Chicago Downtown Hotel

is offering a package tailored to those folks as the shopping season descends.

The Chicago Escape! Shopping Package includes a night in a “deluxe guest room,” a breakfast buffet for two (which includes made-to-order omelets) and a $50 gift card to the State Street

Marshall Field’s

— sorry, I mean

Macy’s

— a block from the hotel.

Rates start at $209 (an impressive $159 when factoring in the gift card) but can leap to as high as $339 during busy times, like Fridays and Saturdays during high season. The rates are valid through April 30, 2012, which means you’ll also be able to get a start on next year’s holiday shopping.

To redeem, enter code “SHO” while booking online or by phone.
