CHICAGO, Aug. 6, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Chicagoland mommy bloggers recently spent a Sunday night downtown to discover the welcoming, contemporary accommodations at a premier extended-stay Magnificent Mile hotel, Residence Inn Chicago Downtown/Magnificent Mile. "Mom's Night Out" invited bloggers and writers from top publications, such as Chicago Parent Magazine and Hotels Magazine, to blog, tweet and Facebook their experiences throughout their stay.

The bloggers checked in Sunday, July 15, and Residence Inn leaders hosted the following activities for the women:

• A tour of the downtown Chicago hotel suites and other hotel amenities, as well as an architectural tour
• Pedicures at Abre nails

On Monday before check-out, the bloggers were treated to a behind-the-scenes view of Residence Inn, breakfast in the gatehouse and a one-hour round table discussion.

"Residence Inn and their staff are impressive," said Emily Dickey, a blogger at BabyDickey.com.  "By the end of the trip I was like, 'Can I work here? Do you have any openings? I want in!' We got to sit in on some behind the scenes stuff and everyone was like one giant family. You can really tell when people love their jobs and it makes all the difference in the world."
