Valentine's Day Deals
We at the DT get the arguments about Valentine's Day. It's nothing more than a conspiracy created by manufacturers of holiday cards and assorted stuffed animals. But given the recent sweetheart deals surrounding hotel stays, we're willing to grit our teeth at all those "happy couples" who like to rub their relationships in the faces of "cough" their single friends and check in for a little pampering.
Check out the holiday hotel offers after the jump.
* New York's Marriage Bureau was just renovated, and to celebrate the new 24,000-square-foot facility, the Ritz-Carlton New York, Battery Park is offering an "NYC Nuptials Wedding Night" overnight package for couples married there. The package includes accommodations for the wedding night, a complementary room upgrade, and Champagne upon arrival. There are no rooms open this weekend, but the package runs until the end of this year.
* Omni Hotels nationwide have a "French Kiss" package running from February 14 through December 30, complete with Nicolas Feuillatte Champagne, a gourmet breakfast in bed with, of course, French toast, and a late check-out. The offer also includes a call-ahead from the "romance director" to help tailor your experience. Rates start at $139 per night and vary depending on special requests.
* Kimpton is offering a national spa-inspired retreat that includes a lesson with a certified massage therapist. The "Rub the One You're With" package is available at 29 Kimpton hotels for stays through March 31.
