Oh lordy, it’s begun. We speak, of course, of the inevitable descent of Dan Brown fanatics looking to unlock the secrets of the Masonry in DC as described in his new bestseller novel, “The Lost Symbol.” And just as inevitable: DC hotels looking to cash in on the influx of tourists. The new boutique Dupont Hotel leads the way with its “Ultimate Lost Symbol Package.”

With a $5,999 price tag, you might need to sweet talk Dan Brown into footing your bill, but that’s besides the point. True devotees know no cost, we suppose.

Promising “everything they need to relive Robert Langdon’s quest and then relax and rejuvenate,” the package includes personal transfer to and from the airport; a two-night stay on private membership floor club level nine, in a king suite; a homemade leather-bound journal and new Duel View Samsung digital camera; two Burberry scarves; two copies of “The Lost Symbol;” in-room breakfast delivery; a four-course dinner-for-two en suite; lunch at a swank downtown restaurant; in-room massage for two; in-room Champagne and chocolate-covered strawberries; and a privately guided eight-hour Lost Symbol Adventure by Gilt-Edge Luxury Tours and Travel International, which includes a tour of the George Washington Masonic Temple and Mount Vernon (for an added charge) and a night drive of the capital’s landmarks.

The package is available through Dec. 30 using promo code SYMBOL.
