Here's a quick round-up of the hotels that have just opened and what their room rates are for tonight: · <a href="http://www.hotelchatter.com/hotel-reviews/Trump+Toronto+Hotel+and+Residences/local/4947">Trump Toronto</a>: Trump took Toronto yesterday when they opened their seventh eponymous hotel. Last we checked opening rates were nearly $600 but we were relieved to see that rates tonight are down to $474 a night and that includes a deluxe king room starting at a whopping 550-sq.ft., breakfast for two, internet, local calls and a suite upgrade for an extra $50.

Though Aloft Bogota opened last year, this is the company's first location in Costa Rica. The budget, easy-in-easy-out appeal of Aloft must have outweighed its flashier big sister, <a href="http://www.hotelchatter.com/tag/W%20Hotels">W</a> when it came time for Starwood to decide which brand to introduce. A quick <a href="http://www.hotelchatter.com/tag/TripAdvisor">TripAdvisor</a> search reveals that until now, Escazú has boasted little in the way of hotels. While Real InterContinental Costa Rica and Marriott San Jose are both viable options (and also both boast killer spa servies) $149/night rates will make Aloft very attractive to cost-conscious travelers.

Two of the HotelChatter team made it to scope out the place and naturally get a peek at the series, and we happened to learn something else: another hotel screening has been added, TONIGHT. So this evening, if you're in Portland, Oregon or near the Bolingbrook suburb of Chicago, you can go see several (currently unreleased) hilarious bits from the new series, plus get free Portlandia swag (we scored Portlandia hats, a "Put a Bird on it" tee, an Aloft tote and the JetSetCD 2012-01-05T16:19:13-05:00 Brooklyn: Two Aloft Hotels to Screen Sneak Peek of 'Portlandia' Season 2 http://www.hotelchatter.com/story/2012/1/2/151142/5433 <![CDATA[<img src="http://www.hotelchatter.com/files/6193/portlandia500.jpg" class="top"> A few quick questions: Do you like hotels? Did you watch (and laugh at) any of the first season of IFC's show Portlandia? Do you like free stuff? If you answered yes to at least two of these questions and you're anywhere near Brooklyn, NY or Portland, OR this week, you should totally head to Aloft Hotels' screenings of the first episode of Portlandia Season 2.

No fans, no stage, not even any fancy lighting or effects. Just a regular old rock band taking over a regular old hotel roomand making you wish you could be snuggled up in bed for a front row seat.
