Since our last three giveaways (here, here and just last week in case you weren’t paying attention) were such a smashing success, we’re doing it aaallll over again! Starwood was kind enough to offer yet another prize for yet another lucky Vagabondish reader who’ll score 25,000 Starpoints to use at any Starwood hotel worldwide as part of their own Starwood Hotels Winter Weekend Staycation!
Decisions, Decisions … So Many Amazing Hotels to Choose From
Starwood has hotels for every budget in just about every corner of the globe. And 25,000 Starpoints will score you a weekend stay at a fantastic Category 4 or Category 5 hotel (depending on the time of year) near you!
Le Parker Méridien Palm Springs, California
Depending on where you live, you could check out the W Montreal for a taste of the old city; catch dinner and a show at NYC’s Element New York Times Square West; or relax with a fruity drink by the pool at Le Parker Méridien Palm Springs in California.
Our Pick: The Liberty Hotel, Boston
For our own staycation, we decided to keep it local at Boston’s Liberty Hotel. The historic and storied Charles Street Jail was renovated to the tune of $150 million dollars to become the stunning property it is today. The hotel’s architecture and history alone make it worth a visit even if you’re not planning to spend the night.

As part of the exclusive Luxury Hotel Collection, The Liberty is an example of the best amenities and services that Starwood’s finer properties can offer. Guests are even provided complimentary champagne at check-in. What hotel (outside the Caribbean) does that?! Other in-room amenities you can expect include:
- Luxurious bathrobes
- Two VOIP digital telephones
- Flat panel HD-LCD televisions
- In-room safes
- Private bars
- High speed wireless (WI-FI) and scalable fiber connection access
- Molton Brown environmentally-friendly body care products
We spent our weekend in bed, ordering room service from their excellent menu of wine and late night snacks (try the dim sum by the way!); and wandering the streets of nearby Beacon Hill and strolling the Charles River walk and Esplanade at night.
