Chase away the winter blues with Marriott

International hotel group Marriott is ushering in the New Year in style by giving guests who book a two night break at any of its 5-star hotels in London or Dublin £100 with which to treat themselves.

Marriott is also offering guests £50 when they stay for two nights at any of its 4-star London properties or a choice of its hotels in the UK and Ireland*.

The Winter Warmer Weekends are the perfect remedy to the miserable January weather, with guests able to treat themselves to a bottle of Champagne in their room, watch a movie, enjoy a delicious meal or play a round of golf** – the choice is entirely theirs.

City Luxury

With plenty of bargains still to be had in the London sales, why not bag a deal on accommodation as well? Spend a couple of nights in the comfort of one of the Marriott’s newly renovated iconic London hotels from just £82pppn - London Marriott Hotel Regents Park, London Marriott Hotel County Hall and London Marriott Hotel Marble Arch – and Marriott will take £100 off your bill.

Alternatively, treat yourself to a weekend in one of Dublin’s national treasures, the Renaissance Hotel - the Shelbourne. Built in 1824, the Shelbourne is the city’s largest 5-star luxury hotel, ideally located in the city centre overlooking St. Stephen's Green and will also give you €100 with which to indulge yourself during your stay.

Romance in the Countryside

Keep the romance of Christmas alive and surprise your loved one to a decadent weekend at one of Marriott’s luxurious Hotel & Country Clubs (just don’t tell them you’re saving £50!).

There are 11 Marriott Hotel & Country Clubs tucked away in some of the UK’s most beautiful places such as Sprowston Manor Hotel & Country Club in Norfolk, St Pierre Hotel & Country Club in South Wales, Meon Valley Hotel & Country Club in Southampton and Dalmahoy Hotel & Country Club in Edinburgh. Each Marriott Hotel & Country Club boasts at least one stunning golf course and a pampering leisure club and together have benefited from a major £37.1 million refurbishment since last year.
