spring is (or soon will be) in the air

March 3rd, 2009

Despite the snow this past week, DC will surely thaw out before NY, and the Cherry Blossom Festival is actually right around the corner, end of March!  The breathtaking scene around the Tidal Basin is rumored to make even cold-blooded lobbyists crack a smile. A true sign of spring in the air is Park Hyatt Washington‘s annual Spring Blossom Package (available now through April 26).  Take advantage of a room upgrade, a pot of Cherry Blossom Green Tea from the hotel’s Tea Cellar, choice of valet parking or breakfast, and a backpack for the kids filled with sightseeing supplies and gifts.

Spring in DC (before the swampy summer) is also perfect for the obligatory sightseeing tour of our nation’s capital. In this historic year, it means more than ever. With Park Hyatt Washington as a home base it’s easy to get around and explore everything from the monuments and museums, to galleries and boutique shops. The hotel wraps it up nice in the Culture at the Park package – room upgrade, behind-the-scenes tour of “Portraying Lincoln” on display at The Historical Society of Washington, D.C., tickets to George Washington’s Mt. Vernon Estate and Gardens, homemade apple pie from its award-winning Blue Duck Tavern, and drinks for two in the Lounge (American Martini or Bourbon Sampler anyone?). 

*Spring Blossom package available through April 26, 2009, with rates starting at $329.

**The two-night, Culture at the Park package is available through October 31, 2009, with rates starting at $749.
