Travel to Las Vegas next weekend

When you think about Las Vegas, it’s easy to get wrapped up in the chaos of parties, playing, and shows. And with a moniker like “City of Sin,” Vegas likes to tout deals with these kinds of perks. For next weekend though, we’ve discovered a different kind of Vegas – one of relaxation and decadence. Dare to spend your next weekend away being pampered in a peaceful, spacious hotel and spa that happens to be right on The Strip.

The only hotel in Vegas that doesn’t have a hotel and is 100 percent non-smoking, Platinum Hotel is a boutique, all-suites resort that capitalizes on the lavish pleasures of sheer elegance and respite.

Next weekend (Friday, Aug. 27- Sunday, Aug. 29) stay in a 950-square foot one-bedroom suite for $99 a night, with the option to extend your checkout time until midnight on Sunday. So, you’re basically getting two nights and three days for $198, which is 25 percent off the hotel’s regular rates.



The suite has four rooms – a bedroom, living room, fully-stocked, stainless steel kitchen, and spa bathroom.  Ready to go?

Sample flights to Vegas are based on round-trip purchases for the specific dates mentioned. Prices are accurate at time of publish.

Los Angeles flights to Vegas, from $208
Denver flights to Vegas, from $281
Phoenix flights to Vegas, from $201

Fly to Seattle next weekend

Sometimes (most of the time) it rains in Seattle. So, for optimum weather enjoyment, your best bet is to visit during the summer, when at least the rainy days will be warm.

Its small organic restaurants, big love for strong coffee, and sincere reverence for craft beers makes this Pacific Northwest city a haven for all things new and local. Go on a bar crawl through Georgetown, catch a flying fish in Pike Place, or hop in and out of art galleries in Belltown. Seattle is saturated in fun and authentic experiences.

The W Seattle: Situated in the center of Downtown Seattle, The W boasts an iconic pyramid structure that is known as one of the the city’s greatest towers. Inside, the W Living Room is armed with a cozy fireplace and a swanky décor with original artwork that leads to the gourmet onsite restaurant – Earth and Ocean – and the W Bar, where DJs spin even on weeknights.



The hotel also offers complimentary wireless internet, a 24-hour fitness facility, and an onsite lap pool. Bringing your pup? The W will provide them with toys, treats, tags and custom W pet beds.

Take advantage of the W’s Summer Sale to save 30 percent and pay $198 a night.

July 17th, 2010
Portland

Spend your next weekend away in Portland

If you’re looking for a quick getaway but can’t lose anymore vacation time, spend your next weekend away in Portland.  Sometimes overshadowed by its neighbor Seattle, this city is anything but inferior.

Situated amongst mountain ranges, rivers, ponds and forests, this urban area doesn’t seem to contradict its natural setting, but rather work with it.  Portland residents aren’t afraid of the outdoors and visitors are encouraged to take advantage of all the biking, hiking, climbing and kayaking they can possibly bear.

Book your stay from July 23- July 26, and witness the laid back and close-knit community that Portland prides itself on maintaining.  While you’re there, you can attend the opening of the PDX Bridge Festival, a gigantic light, fabric and art installation cast over the Hawthorne Bridge.  There are plenty of other activities available from the typical Portland Farmers Market to artsy night clubs in the Pearl District.

When visiting Portland, stay at the Portland Marriott Downtown Waterfront for great deals starting at $149 a night.  This hotel is ideally located next to Waterfront Park, where there are several biking and walking paths along the scenic riverfront. 



Aside from being one of Portland’s most eco-friendly hotels, this Marriott boasts a beautiful indoor swimming pool and whirlpool, as well as a fitness center.  Equipped with large, spacious rooms, balconies, and two restaurants on-site, you’ll be sure to get the most out of your Portland experience.  

This hotel deal is valid through Hotels.com, and after you’ve booked that, go ahead and get a flight to Portland for this upcoming weekend.

Visit Boston for a weekend getaway

Summer is in full swing, and now is not when you should be caged up in your house in front of the television.  There’s no better time to spend your next weekend away in Boston, one of America’s most historic cities.

Your three days in Boston will fly by.  Go shopping and get pampered on Newbury Street, watch a baseball game at Fenway Park, sample the city’s favorite beer at the Sam Adams Brewery and make sure to have a lobster roll, or two.  The endless activities and diverse culture of this city will definitely have you wanting more.

Boston is a walking city and its locals think nothing of hitting the pavement to get from place to place.   When you walk the streets of Boston, keep your eyes out for a thick, red line painted along the sidewalks.  This is known as The Freedom Trail and it takes you around three miles of the city, past 16 of the most historic sites in America dating back to The Revolution.  You’ll find plenty of guided tours, but feel free to follow the path at your own leisurely pace and get a feel for what the city is really about.

Next Weekend Away: San Antonio

July 2nd, 2010
travel to San Antonio

Travel to San Antonio

This weekend, most Americans are at home grilling in their backyards, so use next weekend to travel. Spend your Next Weekend Away in San Antonio, Texas.

Not as high-profile as Dallas or Houston, and less funky than Austin, San Antonio does two things tremendously: Tex-Mex and history. Remember the Alamo? Of course you do. We think you might remember it a lot better over a cerveza and a few enchiladas.

Aside from the incredible cuisine, check out the tree-shaded Riverwalk with so much to do both day and night, and kick back with a little Willie Nelson while sipping on an aguas frescas (fruit-infused water). Shoppers can head straight to La Villita, which is a Southwestern marketplace that sells handmade and traditional beads, jewelry, and blankets.



At the Fairmount Hotel San Antonio, get your third night free if you book with hotels.com. At $159 each night, it’s like paying just over $100 a night (or just over $50 if you travel with a companion!). The hotel boasts free wireless internet, a gym, complimentary toiletries, luxurious Egyptian cotton bedding, and an ultra convenient location right in the center of town.

These sample round-trip flights to San Antonio are based on travel on Thursday, July 8 – Sunday, July 11.

Atlanta flights to San Antonio, from $328
Phoenix flights to San Antonio, from $415
Miami flights to San Antonio, from $331
Denver flights to San Antonio, from $330
Los Angeles flights to San Antonio, from $478
