We adore coupons around here- especially when they’re for hotel bookings! These are from Hotels.com:
$75 off with 10 night booking!
$100 off with 12 night booking!
Why we particularly like Hotels.com: their low price guarantee and there’s no fee for changing or cancelling your hotel booking through them. **These are rebate coupons.
The Plaza New York has reopened! The famous hotel underwent a $400 million, two-year, “lobby-to-roof renovation”:
Inspired by the Louis XV style of French decor, rooms are impeccably adorned with custom-made furnishings, meticulously selected decorative accents and rich fabrics. The Plaza is proud to be the only hotel in the world offering stunning 24-karat gold plated Sherle Wagner sinks and fixtures, delicately cradled in hand-crafted solid white marble vanities, in every bathroom.
But what we’re really excited about are the new “Guest Services touch panels” by AMX, which provide access to personal butler and concierge assistance among other things.
The Plaza resumed operations on March 1st, 2008. Their grand opening will be held in May. If you plan to be there, start looking for a New York hotel now »
If you’re itching to take a break on St. Patrick’s Day, why not visit New York? The St. Patrick’s Day Parade, which was first held in 1762, is the oldest event of its kind in the country- and is the biggest in the world. This year’s theme is Tribute to the Fighting 69th Infantry, a worthy theme, and will feature pure Irish Pageantry. We’re talking bagpipers and marching bands, with the local pubs serving green beer, Irish Whiskey, and plates of corned beef and cabbage!

The Waldorf-Astoria has signed its first ski management agreement. They’ll be managing the Dakota Mountain Lodge in Park City, Utah (USA).
Made up of 197 guestrooms, the Dakota Mountain Lodge will feature everything from studios to a six-bedroom penthouse (!), and will include custom Viking appliances, European showers, Jacuzzis and fireplaces. It promises to be the representation of “refined alpine luxury”.
Pairing a ski lodge with the luxuriousness of Waldorf-Astoria is only good news, in our book. And Dakota Mountain Lodge already looks so lovely…
