Weekends At Some Ritz-Carltons Come With a Cash Bonus

From April first through the end of 2009, Ritz-Carlton hotels in many major cities are offering a bonus to guests who check in for the weekend.  Stay two nights and receive a $50 or $100 credit toward hotel services such as spa treatments and meals.  Stay three nights and that credit doubles to $100 or $200.

The difference in the amount of credit you receive is based on which hotel you select.  For example, the downtown Washington, DC, Ritz-Carltons (there are two of them) offer the $100 credit for a two night stay adn $200 for a three-night stay because their nightly rate is higher than the two Ritz-Carltons just outside of DC in suburban Virginia. The Pentagon City and Tyson's Corner hotels offer a $50 credit for two nights, $100 for three nights.

The deal grows more generous if you book a suite.

The Ritz-Carlton folks call this their Reconnect package, and you can book it on line.  Note that some overseas hotels, including Ritz-Carltons in Beijing, Singapore, Shanghai, and Doha are participating in this offer, as well.
