This Halloween, Get Spooked Then Sloshed with Omni Hotels
We have to admit, we’re total suckers for a good haunted hotel tale. As such, we may just have to check in to an Omni hotel this month. In addition to offering spooky signature cocktails, the chain has a “ghost-folio” of spirited suites. And if that pun isn't enough to make you gag, perhaps a spooky stay might.
At Boston’s Omni Parker House Hotel, the ghost of the hotel’s founder, Harvey Parker, is said to pop up in guest rooms to inquire about their stay. Good customer service never dies! Plus, the elevators have “been known to” travel to the third floor, former (and current?) stomping grounds of novelist Charles Dickens, with nary a button pushed.
Meanwhile, at the Omni Shoreham Hotel’s “Ghost Suite” in DC, TVs and lights reportedly flicker on and off in the middle of the night, and sometimes guests in adjacent rooms hear loud noises coming from the suite — while unoccupied.
Then there’s the Omni Mount Washington Resort in Bretton Woods, New Hampshire, a new acquisition for Omni. The widow of the hotel’s first owner, a socialite named Princess Carolyn, still likes to brush her hair at the foot of guest room beds. She also is said to like to knock politely on doors (again with the customer service!) and visit the ornate maple four-poster bed in room 314 that traveled around the world with her.
Perhaps to calm the nerves of edgy guests who book stays at these properties, Omni is also offering four signature Halloween cocktails: the Red Widow, Trick ‘R’ Treat, Bond’s Eye (pictured above), and Red Eye. Even better, you can click here for all four drinks recipes.
