The Prentice Women's Hospital, located off of East Superior Street, is one of Chicago's premier state-of-the-art health care facilities for women. Opened in late 2007, the hospital specializes in a variety of women and children's services including obstetrics care, gynecology and pediatrics, as well as high-risk facilities such as neonatal intensive care and maternal-fetal medicine. For out-of-town patients who are receiving outpatient care, there are a number of hotels near the hospital that offer comfortable accommodations.
The Affinia Chicago Hotel is located just west, on the corner of North Saint Clair Street and East Superior Street and within walking distance of the hospital. Just next door to the hotel is the famous Gino's East Pizzeria, home to Gino's deep-dish pizza. The 215-room hotel features fully-electric furnishings, what the Affinia calls "eclectic décor" and "experience kits" of your choosing delivered to your room. The kits are gift baskets filled with useful information, and items such as an iPod Shuffle that is preloaded with information for their walking tour. Other baskets include a StayFit Kit and a BYOB Kit. Rooms are equipped with high-speed Internet service, minibars, phones, hair dryers, iron with ironing boards, flat-screen cable TVs and CD stereo clock radios that are capable of playing MP3s.
