It's hard to believe that there is a museum devoted to Coca-Cola but there is and a newer bigger facility for the soft drink is opening on Thursday, May 24th. Hotels are always keen to capitalize on museum openings and so the Atlanta Marriott Marquis has put together a New World of Coca Cola museum package.

Included are deluxe city-view room accommodations, two VIP tickets to the museum where you can sample nearly 70 different beverages, complimentary breakfast for two, and complimentary hotel valet parking.

Once inside the Coke museum, you can tour the soft drink through the years.

The museum is presented roughly in chronological order, with numerous examples of advertising materials and Coke-branded memorabilia. Some of the noteworthy attractions include a replica of a mid-20th century soda fountain (based on a real drugstore that was found in the city of Baxley, Georgia, in the southeastern corner of the state) and a more futuristic vision of one, where guests get a chance to try Coca-Cola products from around the world.

The hotel package is $185 per night for a weekend night and the VIP tickets are open-ended. You can book on Marriott.com by using the promotional code EW4 or you can call 1-800-834-7015 using the same code. Unfortunately, a free dental cleaning is not included in the package
