Hot Destination Deals for this Winter Season
Hotwire.com, a leading discount travel site, announced a blizzard of fantastic last minute holiday deals to popular cold weather destinations that are bound to make price-savvy travelers hearts sing with glee for the holidays. From rarely before seen hotel deals in cities like New York and Chicago to popular ski destinations in Colorado that won’t freeze your wallet, Hotwire has seen an uptick in room availability at cold weather destinations due to the economic slowdown.
During the winter months, the travel industry experiences a seasonal downturn in travel bookings. Hotwire helps major hotel suppliers fill empty rooms that would otherwise go unsold, which combined with the economic slowdown means deeply discounted room rates in some of the country’s most popular destinations. For consumers looking for a quick, exciting and affordable winter get away, Hotwire offers an abundance of hotel options.
There’s no better place to take in holiday lights and festivities than New York City. For those that think visiting New York over the holidays means breaking the bank, Hotwire is pleased to show them otherwise. Hotwire has seen a boom in room availability in New York City this holiday season. With unheard of discounts, like a 4-star hotel in Midtown for only $132 a night, consumers can now travel to New York on a dime and use their hard earned cash to experience all of the holiday treats the city has to offer.
Hotwire also has incredible hotel deals in Chicago. Enjoy world-class shopping on the Magnificent Mile and indulge in exquisite dining in Chicago’sGold Coast neighborhood while staying at a 4.5-star hotel for only $109 a night or a 4-star for $89 per night when booking through Hotwire.
For travelers who want more ‘adventure’ during their holidays, Hotwire has rarely seen discounts of up to 54 percent off retail prices in snowy locales. Now dare devil travelers can board or ski their hearts out with Hotwire’s help. Here’s a selection of ski resort deals recently booked on Hotwire, researched on December 2, 2008*:
