Hotel Bel-Ami in Paris.

A "cure for the winter blahs" - now that’s some claim for a hotel group to be making. Bessé Signature Hotels, which owns a ménage a trois of hotels in France, is promising to wipe away yours with special rates.

Stay at the Domaine de la Bretesche in Brittany, and you’ll save 35% with the Winter Promotion rate – rooms start at €190 ($282/£172) per night instead of the normal €295, until March 22, 2010. Not bad – although, having been to Brittany in the winter, we can vouch for there not being a whole lot of stuff to do. But the hotel looks pretty lovely – like a modern(ish) castle (it’s based on a 15th-century chateau) with whitewashed beams and striped fabrics in the rooms, and there’s a spa, too, so by March, it should be a pretty good bet.

Or you’ll always have Paris. The Hotel Edouard 7, on the Avenue de l’Opera, has a guaranteed dollar rate of $399 per night until December 15. Pay in euros, and you’d be shelling out an average of €345 ($512) a night. And the Hotel Bel-Ami in St Germain has a fixed dollar rate of $395 a night, B&B. The cheapest room this weekend costs €270, or $400, though, so you ain't getting such a bargain. Personally, we’d hold on till springtime and hit up Brittany.
