We've said it before and we'll say it again: Travelers should really be on Twitter. In time for Valentine's Day, a handful of upscale hotel brands including Fairmont and RockResorts are offering Twitter-only discounted rooms and packages. Here's a short list:

Fairmont Newport Beach, California
  • Save 45% on an amenity-packed weekend in a junior suite; you pay $446 including all taxes and fees for two nights instead of $803. Some of the perks we could do without (Twitter heart cookies?), but we find this one kind of funny: You get two plush bathrobes monogrammed with your own Twitter handles. Other perks include daily breakfast and parking, and a bottle of champagne (or wine or cider, if you'd rather have one of those).
  • Follow: @FairmontNewport or @FairmontHotels. Send a direct message request for the Twitter-only booking code.
  • Dates: Travel February 1 - March 31 and book up to six days before your arrival date, as long as the promotion is still available.
Arrabelle at Vail Square, Colorado
  • Over Valentine's Day weekend (which this year also coincides with Presidents Day weekend), package prices are pretty high: You pay $2,295 (including taxes and fees) for a two-night stay in a superior room at this RockResort, one 80-minute couples massage, a tubing session at Adventure Ridge, breakfast daily at Tavern on the Square, and, of course, champagne. Still, you're saving about 30%, because outside of the package you'd pay $3,311 for the room and all these extras. Good thing, though, that you can book the package through March, when you'll pay $1,021 instead of $1,368, a savings of 25%.  
  • Follow: Direct message @ArrabelleVail for the booking code.
  • Dates: The package is valid through the rest of ski season—through April 17—and it is subject to availability.

Another RockResort is posting Twitter packages, too: The Landings St. Lucia (@LandingsStLucia) gives you six nights for 25% off. And at ONE Bal Harbour Resort & Spa, you can get three nights in an ocean-view room (with champagne chilling in it upon your arrival), a couples spa treatment in a private beach-side cabana, and dinner for two at the resort's restaurant for hundreds less than you would normally pay. This last one is pretty limited—the travel window is just February 12-15—but follow @BalHarbourFL for more information.
