Peninsular Hotel, Chicago IL: A Heavenly Tablet That Does It All


The super-upscale hotel now provides its computer-hip guests at check-in a glowing tablet. Not quite as creative as the one Moses brought down from the mountaintop, it offers a single electronic touch device that does everything to make the Peninsular visit spectacular. 

The tablet includes control of all in-room functions, displaying restaurant menus, all hotel services and access to all channels of the guest’s TV set. Also, calls for maid and valet services, room security, same-day weather info, room temperature control and many other available services. For more info, go to www.peninsula.com/Chicago
