Valentine’s Day

by 4Cokes

Feb 10, 2013

Valentine’s Day is coming this Thursday, and this year more than ever I have seen special deals, rates and packages that can help you celebrate the day of love. On Feb. 14, I typically stay at home with my boyfriend and we cook a low-key dinner and enjoy some wine; anything to take the pressure off trying to be extra-romantic on a week day. However, this year with all the added marketing local Los Angeles hotspots are putting on, I could not help myself and booked a reservation for two at Morrison’s in Los Angeles.

Sites like Expedia, Priceline, Groupon and Living Social are offering special fares for Thursday and through the week. If you’re willing to brave the crowds, here are some Los Angeles hotels with romantic dinner options:

Wolfgang Puck at Hotel Bel Air: $175 for four courses

Belvedere at Peninsula Beverly Hills: $135 for five courses

Tres at SLS Beverly Hills: $75 for seven courses

Enjoy!
