Staycation: a vacation spent in one's home country rather than abroad, or one spent at home and involving day trips to local attractions.

If you been around for a while you probably know that I'm always out and about trying to experience everything Chicago has to offer. But every now and then I like to unplug and spend the entire weekend just relaxing at home.

This time we were invited by Holiday Inn Chicago North Shore  to stay there for the weekend ... and it was perfect! They recently renovated the whole place and everything looks really nice. They have lots of open spaces and seating areas, a modern gym, a huge pool and a restaurant/ bar downstairs that opens til' late.  What else can a girl ask for? 

I'd love to say that I actually worked out at their gym or dipped my toes in the water, but I didn't. From the moment we walked in our room and snuggled on the bed , we were trapped! I totally lost count of how many naps did I take during those two days.

The staff was incredibly nice with us, they made us feel at home and sent us some delicious treats to out room. We also ordered some food from Bar Louie, the tortilla soup and poke tuna were my favorite! 

I could keep writting about this , but a picture's worth more than a thousand words. Hope you like them!

Si me conocen ya sabran que a mi me encanta andar por todos lados,  cuando no estoy de viaje seguro me encuentran probando o visitando algun nuevo lugar en Chicago. Amo esta ciudad! Pero despues de tanto ajetreo tambien me gusta mucho desconectarme y pasar el fin de semana relajandome en casa sin hacer absolutamente nada, o bueno como algunos lo llaman: Staycation!

Hace unas semanas el hotel Holiday Inn nos invito a quedarnos un fin de semana en sus instalaciones y fue perfecto. Acaban de remodelar todo el lugar y esta increible, todo se ve de lo mas lindo y tienen de todo, hasta un gym super equipado.

Mi parte favorita de todo fue mi cuarto, tanto que nisiquiera salimos de ahi. En vez de eso nos dedicamos a tomar incontables siestas y a ordernar las cosas mas ricas del Bar Louie. Nuestros platillos favoritos fueron la sopa de tortilla y el tartar de atun. Se los recomiendo muchisimo!

Dicen por ahi que una imagen vale mas que mil palabras, aqui les dejo las fotos. Diganme que tal les parecen!
