Lacey Brenly, the new Teen Concierge at The Ritz-Carlton Chicago (A Four Seasons Hotel) has the "Inside City Scoop," and is sharing it with younger guests vacationing at the hotel this summer.
In preparation for her arrival, The Ritz-Carlton Chicago formed a Junior Advisory Panel, of local Chicago teens, last Spring, who offered advice on their favorite Chicago experiences.
As a result, The Ritz-Carlton Chicago has partnered up with teen-friendly retailers such as Borders Books & Music, Michigan Avenue; ESPN Zone; Hershey's Chocolate World; Jamba Juice; and Virgin Mega Store, and Lacey is offering special coupons from each, so that visiting teens can explore the Windy City like a true expert.
Teens are also greeted with complimentary magazines such as Lucky, Sports Illustrated, and Teen People, as well as Jones Soda and popcorn.
Ritz-Carlton Chicago Teen Concierge Lacey Brenly is welcoming teens Friday's and Saturday's through the summer, as part of Four Seasons 411, a Four Seasons Hotels & Resorts company initiative to reach out to the growing market of traveling teens.
In addition to The Ritz-Carlton Chicago (which is managed by Four Seasons Hotels & Resorts), Four Seasons Hotels in Atlanta, New York, London, Philadelphia and Toronto are also participating in Four Seasons 411 and adding Teen Concierge as hotel staff members.
