    Take A Tax Vacation With Kimpton Hotels

    Friday, April 17th, 2009

    How nice of the folks at Kimpton Hotels to pay our taxes!

    From now until the end of the month, if you stay at a Kimpton property under the Sweet Tax Relief package, they will pay your taxes.

    On your room, that is.

    With the Sweet Tax Relief Package, you’ll get

    • deluxe accommodations
    • a grab bag filled with appropriately named sweets like the 100 Grand candy bar or the Payday
    • late checkout when available
    • paid room tax

    And if you dine at the hotel restaurant during your stay, they’ll pay the tax there too.

    Speaking of restaurants, all Kimpton property restaurants have highchairs and boosters for the little ones that can also be delivered to your room for private dining.  And when dinner is over, kids can wrap up in pint-sized animal print bathrobes, loaned for your stay or available for purchase.

    Hey! Maybe you can pay for it with the money you saved on your room tax!

    It seems almost insane to contemplate a getaway like this, given our current economy, but we guarantee there’s someone out there for whom this package is completely within the realm of possibility.  (Perhaps some of the higher-ups at AIG?)

    Endless Escape – A Month at La Samanna

    Yes, we did the double-take too, and yes, they really mean a month – 31 days to practically move yourself in to a luxurious beachfront 2-bedroom and bask in the accompanying service.  Think of it as your best sublet ever, with the following goodies either included or added on: (more…)
