Accommodations Worldwide

After reading “A Great Restaurant for a Splurge” (May ’04, pg. 52), I wanted to share some “Paris Hotels for a Splurge.” There’s no better city than Paris for splurging in style. While some travelers are trying to scrape up enough money for a trip, I know an equal number who figure you only go around once and may as well enjoy it to the hilt.

My trip was in November ’03. (2005 prices are also given.)

Set for Paris

My husband and I had a week’s vacation in Paris in March ’05. For the second time in five years, we used Go-today.com for our travel arrangements. They offer a package with flight and six nights in a hotel plus breakfast for very reasonable rates.

Chile’s Colchagua Valley

Two hours’ drive south of Santiago lies one of Chile’s most renowned wine-producing regions, Valle de Colchagua. On my last visit to Chile, in February ’05, I had the opportunity to visit, albeit too briefly, this impressive valley of abundance on the Ruta del Vino.

A lengthy list of awards and medals have to date been earned by the valley’s wineries in prestigious international competitions and publications. This was highlighted in 2003 when the Colchagua Valley was named Wine Region of the Year in the U.S. magazine Wine Enthusiast. Valley wines are of consistently high quality.
