In checking out the shopping package from the Dylan Hotel in Dublin yesterday we noticed that the website offered a choice of "moods", essentially colors to pick from for the website background.

And speaking of websites is HotelChatter's dedicated commenter, HotelMgr, who gave us his choices for silly Parisian hotel websites.
