The St. Regis, in the background, is a short walk from an iconic Mexico City site, the Angel of Independence
If you've ever thought about splurging on a stay at one of the 20 luxurious St. Regis properties around the world, now here's your chance to do so with less of a dent to your wallet. One of its newest properties, the St. Regis, Mexico City, which opened in October 2009, has two separate offers from now through June 2010 that can save you 33-45%. The 31-story hotel is located on Paseo de la Reforma, steps from the Angel of Independence monument, and near Chapultepec Park. As with other St. Regis hotels and resorts, this one has 24-hour butler service.
The Third Night Complimentary promotion is good for arrival from Sunday through Wednesday. The room must be prepaid for all nights of the stay, with the free night credited at check-out. For a stay of three nights in a Deluxe King room in mid-April, the price with taxes rung up to $1,554, but once the free night was included, the total dropped to $1,036 (about $345 per night), a savings of 33%.
Travelers receive an even bigger windfall with the hotel's Second Night Complimentary on Weekends package. Here, guests arriving Thursday through Saturday pay for the first night, and get the second one free (again, all nights must be prepaid, and the free night is applied at check out). We test-booked an Executive Suite for two nights, with complimentary breakfast, on a weekend at the end of May; the total cost came to $856, or $428 per night (including taxes). Once the amount for the free night was deducted from the calculation, the room total dropped to $428, or $214 a night. When pricing the cheapest available room a few days later—a Deluxe King room—we couldn't find it for less than $386 per night; so the weekend rate represents a discount of 45% and comes with a higher category of accommodation.
How to book: At the website for the St. Regis, Mexico City, under the heading Exclusive Offers, or at this dedicated page that lists both offers. Or call St. Regis reservations at 888-625-5144 and quote Special Rate Plans SR3NFR for the third-night free promotion, SR2NFR for the second-night free package.
Dates: The special rates are only available on certain nights of the week, and are good for travel through June 2010.
