Hey Y’all! It’s GoEverywhereTravelGirl and I’m a web based travel agent. I check out travel blogs on a daily basis for great deals I can pass along to as many people as possible. I found this unbelieveable deal for the new Hotel Sax in Chicago. It’s supposedly a “true gamers paradise.” They have a entertainment center on the 6th floor of the hotel called “The Studio - experience by Microsoft.” It’s managed by a technology butler, and has XBOX 360s, Zune Music Players, cutting edge PCs, and a movie studio. They have all the latest games including Guitar Hero and Rock Band, and this is the best part as far as I’m concerned…it’s for adults. They’ll serve you beer and wine, and you can order food from the restaurant. My husband is a business traveler, and he just returned home from a trip to the hotel and was absolutely amazed! He loved the Studio so much, that the next time we visit Chicago, we’re staying at Hotel Sax. He also went right out and bought Rock Band the next day…typical.Here’s the best part. He made friends with one of the people from the hotel, and as a result, got a “special code” to get 20% off the room rate. And now, I’m passing it along to everyone I can. The code is “cache08″ and all you do is put it in the promo box when prompted. I don’t know how long it’ll be valid, so use it as soon as you can. Especially if you live near, or are traveling to Chicago anytime within the next month or so. Book it now and take advantage of that code, and pass it along to anyone you know. It’s not often that we stumble upon such things. www.hotelsaxchicago.com The next hotel I have to tell you about is the Mayflower Inn & Spa in Washington, Connecticut. I was researching spa hotels for a client and came across this amazing place. I haven’t been yet, but my client is scheduled to go this weekend, and she’ll do a write-up when she returns. The website makes the place look and sound unbelievable. It was rated the #1 Spa Hotel in the US by Conde’ Naste Traveler. You can’t get a much better recommendation than that. I plan on visiting the hotel as soon as humanly possible. You’ve got to check out the site…there’s no way I can do it justice on a blog. www.mayflowerinn.com Those are my top picks for the day, and I hope you’ll check them both out and enjoy the amazing services they offer. They’re two totally different hotels, but both rated “tops” in their areas of focus. GoEverywhereTravelGirl�

Hey TravelGirl,
Thanks for the coupon code. I have been eyeing Hotel Sax for awhile now. I am planning on booking a get away with my boyfriend and he is a major gamer! The Studio sounds amazing and just what we need. I did not know they had a Technology Butler. I’ll find that useful while my man plays away.

Good Evening ~
Interesting concept. I think the trend of hotels catering to the young technically interested and connected business and pleasure traveler is going to really re-ignite the industry. I travel quite a bit, and am quite tired of the “typical” room/bed/lounge cookie cutter chain hotels. There is nothing interesting or unique about them. It sounds like Hotel Sax is pushing the stereotypes out the window the inventive ideas. The next time I am in Chicago, I will definitely check it out. Thanks for the tip and the discount code.
This site was recommended to me from a fellow “live out of the suitcase” traveler. We are always on the look out for something to break up the day to day travel blues. It seems we have found a great resource!

Hey TravelGirl,
Hotel Sax is such an AMAZING hotel! After reading your review, I went to hotelsaxchicago.com and fell in love. We used your code, “cache08″ and saved some money. Thanks for the special code. My boyfriend and I can’t wait to get into the Microsoft Studio. We are excited about the XBox games, the Zune mp3s, and playing Guitar Hero, and he really wants to play Madden 08. We have never been to a hotel that offers so much technological gaming. I going to earn major brownie points with the boyfriend after taking him to this hotel. I’ll write back after we go.
