Distinctive Inns of New England Enhances Travel Rewards

Distinctive Inns of New England is happy to announce that the Innsiders Club Rewards Program has been enhanced! This is exciting news!! The Rewards Program has been enhanced to assist our loyal guests during this challenging economy. Now you can earn rewards of $100 DINE Dollars after you have stayed at three of the Distinctive Inns during a two year period. DINE Dollars can then be used towards your next two night stay at any of our Distinctive Inns properties throughout New England.

For those Innsiders that visited us and have a brochure that requires four nights stay for $100 DINE Dollars, rest assured. Just bring your rewards brochure with you on your next visit and we will be happy to adjust it so that you will only have to stay at three Inns and receive the reward. Now that was easy.

Why wait to take advantage of this offer? Spring is here, rates are still in the off season, and aren’t you tired of staying at home? We look forward to your visit.

Gateways Inn is Ready for Tanglewood 2009 Season in Lenox, Masschusetts

Gateways Inn is excited about the 69th Tanglewood Season in Lenox, MA.  The Tanglewood Music center is the summer home of the Boston Symphony Orchestra and is the setting for a wide variety of musical performances each year.  The season starts on June 26th and is filled with many exciting performances.  We feel that there is no better way to spend a summer evening than spreading out a picnic blanket and listening to live music as the sun sets and the stars magically appears in the sky above.

 

The 2009 season will include performances by the Boston Symphony Orchestra.  Other highlights will include James Taylor, Diana Krall, Yo-Yo Ma, Sheryl Krow, and many others!  A list far too long to be all inclusive.  After an enjoyable evening at Tanglewood, return to the Gateways Inn for a late night dinner and an evening of romance in your luxury accommodations.

 

We encourage everyone planning to attend Tanglewood to make room and dinner reservations early as we do sell out quickly.  Ticket information can be obtained at Inquire about tickets at http://gonewengland.about.com/cs/maartsculture/a/bltangletickets.htm and we look forward to seeing you this Summer!

Rabbit Hill Inn on a National TV Show

Vermont’s Rabbit Hill Inn is going to be a prize on “The Wheel”! How cool is that? Watch Wheel of Fortune on Tuesday, March 24th to see if someone wins a 6 night getaway to this luxurious AAA Four Diamond Inn. Although the show has already been taped, it’s a big secret whether or not someone has won the prize. Wheel of Fortune airs in 28 countries to some 44 million viewers. We think this is great exposure for the Northeast Kingdom, the real Vermont! Through BedandBreakfast.com, who covers airfare and rental car, Rabbit Hill was selected as the quintessential New England getaway for quiet romance, elegant and sophisticated dining, great outdoor activities, and nature’s peace. We are thrilled and we hope you’ll watch!

March Madness – Weekend Savings at the Captains House Inn

March tends to be a quiet month on Cape Cod. And understandably so – even the hardiest New Englanders find the snow to be just another shoveling expedition versus a beautiful white wonderland. Still, for those who can’t escape for a week in the Caribbean, the Cape does provide a retreat for those who need a quick getaway, if even to escape the cabin fever of their own home. The Captains House Inn has extended their winter mid-week special for the entire month of March to include weekends as long as one night of your stay includes a week night (Sunday-Thursday). A two night minimum stay is required to receive this rate. So, ditch your cell phone and lap top and grab a bottle of wine and a good book and revitalize at the Captains House Inn before you embark on your spring cleaning this year.
