At least one of you dear readers was intrigued and then ticked off by the Ritz-Carlton Battery Park's package centered on the NYC Waterfalls, artist Olafur Eliasson's man-made waterfalls along Manhattan's East River.

If the $630-per-night price tag got your blood boiling (hey, this is the Ritz-Carlton, after all), perhaps this offering from the Westin New York at Times Square can be your blood pressure medication.

The hotel has partnered with Circle Line Sightseeing Cruises so that guests can get an up-close gander at the four waterfalls, between 90 and 120 feet tall, at the Brooklyn Bridge, Governors Island, Pier 35 in Manhattan and Piers 4 and 5 in Brooklyn.

Through September 3, prices start at $379, which includes accommodation, two vouchers for the two-hour cruise and free parking. Beginning September 4 through the end of the exhibit on October 13, the cost of the package inexplicably rises to $479.

So before you get all angry again, go book a stay before September 3. The waterfalls make their debut next Thursday, June 26.
