Unbeatable St. Regis Special


The St. Regis brand is the flagship of the Starwood Hotel Group (St. Regis Tahiti shown above).  They are truly superlative properties in my experience.  Noteworthy aside, if you are an American Express Platinum Card holder you automatically qualify for Gold Preferred Status in the SPG program (see Post for all travel benefits of card).

Back to the point, St. Regis is offering an incredible deal: stay a second night at a participating St. Regis property for only $4.  The idea is to offer the same rate as when the first St. Regis property opened in 1904.  The deal is good for stays between September 15 - December 31, 2011.  The reservation code to cite is "STR1904" if calling in to make your reservation (1-877-787-3447).  Though the first night will undoubtedly command normal St. Regis rates, the average of two nights over a weekend stay are a sure value.  If you were contemplating a week jaunt in the fourth quarter, I would definitely check to see if there's a St. Regis property in your destination of choice.
