Honeymoons & Anniversaries

Let your hotel know when making reservations that you will be celebrating a special occasion. Although most have honeymoon-anniversary packages that you can purchase for extra amenities, such as breakfast in bed or champagne on arrival, many hotels like to recognize honeymooners and those celebrating an anniversary. Some hotels offer a special gift or even a room upgrade if available. Remember, as much as you want to have a good time, the hotel also wants to make this an extra-special trip for the two of you. What better way to bring back return guests than to help create a wonderful occasion?
