| Icing Queen   |  Couple Gets Luxurious Stay at 1940s Price A couple stayed in Chicago's luxurious Palmer House Hotel for only $9.90 a day, the same price they paid for a room there 60 years ago. Larry and Miriam Orenstein of Milwaukee were taking advantage of a promotional offer for those who slept in the hotel's lavish rooms decades ago, The Chicago Sun-Times reported. Hotel spokesman Ken Price said that taking advantage of the 136-year-old hotel's newest offer isn't always easy, given the length of time between guests' stays. "A lot of people just don't have their original receipts," Price said of the offer's key requirement. The Orensteins stayed at the Palmer House for their honeymoon -- and they still had their original receipt stored away among their wedding memorabilia. Miriam told the Sun-Times that for their stay this weekend, the hotel even gave them the penthouse suite, which typically costs guests $1,600 a night. "We are just surprised and shocked," the 81-year-old said. "What a nice present!" everythinggreyhound -> Couple gets luxurious stay at 1940's price Hilton Chicago Illinois Hotel - Palmer House Hotel - Chicago, IL Hotels More photos of Chicago's Palmer House Hotel - MiceChat
