Gramercy Park Hotel Flaunting Their Deals on Social Networks

Looks like someone isn't exactly weathering the recession very well: Ian Schrager's goth-licious Gramercy Park Hotel is humbling itself before the altar of hotel discounts to release some pretty sweet room offers for spring in Manhattan. First, the GPH hit the social networks, sending out an email blast to members of the invitation-only ASmallWorld, also known as pretentious Facebook for the older set.

According to Down By the Hipster, the elite member of the website would be privy to a buy-one-get-one-half-off deal, or as Payless likes to call it, a "Bogo."

Normally we would ignore such a restricted offer, seeing as how we don't know a soul who even uses ASmallWorld — except for the fact that the Gramercy Park Hotel has opened up the offer to anyone who swings by their own website and clicks on the deal. From Februrary 22 through April 30, every night booked at their "best available rates" will yield you the following night at 50% off.

Or — and this is possibly even juicier — book some nights for any time this year at least fourteen days in advance (yes even for peak summer season in the city) and get 20% off room rates, beginning at $315.

Either way, you can't lose if you have a New York hotel budget of at least $350 a night, which you kind of have to have during the warmer months. Now if only we could convince the GPH to put this offer up on Facebook, then they might be able to recoup some of their hipness quotient. Or not.
