Hotels starting to offer “star” treatments

Sunday, 12 Apr, 2007 0

Stars aren’t the only ones involved in overindulging these days, says a recent report.

“The hottest trend….from boutique hotels to Canadian fishing resorts, overindulgence is getting overnight privileges in travel packages that encourage guests to adopt the stars’ philosophy that too much is never enough,” says CanWest News Service.

Some of the latest services:

§         In-room bars staffed by professional mixologists such as the Hotel Allegro in Chicago.

§         Edible body paint and morning after hangover relief tables.

§         Complimentary lace throngs (offered at Personality Hotels in San Francisco).

The free underwear is part of the hotel chain’s newly introduced “Britney breakdown package,” designed especially for the vacationer who, like its troubled celebrity namesake, is having problems.

The deal includes a gift certificate to a top hair salon and the caveat: “Don’t shave your head just yet.”
