The Peninsula Chicago Introduces "We Meet Again" - A Distinctive Offer and Charitable Giving Program

A celebration of “The Seven Loves of The Peninsula Chicago” allows guests to rediscover the exceptional cuisine, activities, culture, and community in the city. Guests contribute to the love and support for Chicago, with a one-for-one meal donation program.

For nearly a century, The Peninsula Hotels has been more than a global leader in luxury hospitality; the hotels have also been cherished second homes for guests, employees, and the larger communities where they are located. As each hotel re-opens its doors, guests are extended a warm invitation to return to some of their favorite familiar experiences or explore new activities with the “We Meet Again” campaign. 

The Peninsula is the ideal destination for restorative comfort and the creation of precious memories, and for enjoying special time with friends and family, a long-overdue holiday, or a celebration of missed milestones.

“Caring for our community has always been a priority at the heart of our hotel. Especially during these challenging times, we continue to express love and support for the people of Chicago who are most in need,” says Maria Zec, Regional Vice President and General Manager of The Peninsula Chicago. “The hotel recently celebrated our nineteenth anniversary and had the opportunity to look back on the many beautiful memories we have created together over the years. We have missed our guests and look forward to welcoming them back to make new memories and honor timeless traditions.” 

The ‘We Meet Again’ package offers a special opportunity for our guests to connect with their loved ones, experience the best of Chicago, and give back to the community.
