Hello there, shoppers! As magical as the holiday season is, things can get a bit hectic this time of year. That considered, should the top gift idea on your wish list to Santa this year be a getaway, stay tuned for some serious steals on such things Black Friday and especially on Cyber Monday.
Travel on the cheap. Relaxation for real. Gotta love it.
For instance, swanky Kimpton boutique hotels in the D.C. area are offering insanely good deals with suite upgrades and more for those looking to sprawl out this holiday season and help keep family relations friendly.
A few of the amazing deals Kimpton will offer, some featuring savings of up to 60 percent, include:
Hotel Palomar in D.C. – Premier Spa Suite with Fuji soak tub; regularly $349, sale price of $149 per night.
Hotel Rouge in D.C. – Specialty Bunk Room that can easily fit a family of four (one king bed /custom bunk bed nook); regularly $299, sale price of $119 per night.
Hotel Monaco Baltimore – One-bedroom Mediterranean Suite; regularly $249, sale price of $149 per night.
Lorien Hotel & Spa in Alexandria – Diplomat Suite, which is a one-of-a-kind suite featuring a 550-foot private furnished balcony, living room, wet bar, and oversized bathroom with spa rain shower; regularly $349, sale price of $159 per night.
The sale will run from midnight on Cyber Monday, Nov. 28, to Wednesday, Nov. 30, at 11:59 p.m., or until room upgrades run out. Dates of travel are limited to Dec. 15 to Dec. 30, 2011.
To book, visit www.kimptonhotels.com/cybermonday and enter rate code 72SALE on the reservations page. **Offers will not be available to book until the sale begins on November 28.** Rates are based on availability, and do not include tax. Suite and specialty room upgrades vary depending on hotel inventory, and inventory is limited so there is no guarantee that rooms will be available for the full 72-hour sale period.
Also, I just came across this CNN article about travel deals to sunny locales like Costa Rica and Bermuda thanks to Marriott, and big discounts on air travel, Vegas shows and more on Black Friday and Cyber Monday courtesy of travel sale site Yuupon.com.
Happy shopping! And happy travels!
