For $3900 (ain't no thang), you can enjoy a post-election stay in the Cloud Nine Penthouse, a 1,200 square foot presidential suite which, you may recall, has that awesome LG Iris Identification Technology to lock and unlock the door. You can feel like a big deal for a night. Or at least a little bit like Jack Bauer.

Cloud Nine guests will receive an in-suite gift package designed for the winning candidate, full of his fave things and, of course, a bottle of celebratory champagne. The possibilities:

· McCain Pack: assorted doughnuts, BBQ flavored chips, mini Stoli from mini bar, Weekend at Bernie's on DVD, Mamma Mia soundtrack (ABBA), a copy of For Whom the Bell Tolls by Ernest Hemingway, and a `Team McCain' campaign button/ bumper sticker

· Obama Pack: Planters' trail mix, Dentyne Ice, pistachios, Black Forest `Berry Honest' tea, Casablanca on DVD, SERVE 2 (compilation CD featuring some of Barack's favorite artists: Bob Dylan, Stevie Wonder, and Bruce Springsteen; proceeds from sales benefit world hunger initiatives), a copy of For Whom the Bell Tolls by Ernest Hemingway, and a 'Team Barack' campaign button/ bumper sticker.

And yes, both candidates are known to agree on For Whom the Bell Tolls -- and we're not even going to address the issue of musical taste.

The package is valid from November 7, 2008 - February 28, 2009 -- reservations can be made by calling Kimpton at (866) 906-9090; ask for rate code PRES.

And if you're not into spending $3900 on a hotel room, all three of Kimpton's Boston properties (Nine Zero, Hotel Marlowe and Onyx Hotel) are offering 20% off all suites from January 1 through the end of February for Presidents Day if you book using rate code PRS. You can just buy a copy of For Whom the Bell Tolls and some Andre champagne and pretend it's the same.
