Hot on the heels of La Quinta's "Hot for Teacher" promotion we recently reported on comes another deal for exclusively for those grooming our future's leaders. Along with reading, writing, and arithmetic, add "rollback"—in prices, that is—to the list of Rs.

The JW Marriott Denver at Cherry Creek is jumping on the teacher appreciation bandwagon, hoping to attract a slew of recess-seeking educators to its Rocky Mountain-located digs. Through the end of this year, they're offering all teachers and administrators 50 percent off their nightly room rate, with prices starting at $99 on weekends and $149 for weekdays. We would've thought those prices would be reversed, but it works out nicely for three-day weekends and full-time school employees.

Okay, so maybe the JW Marriott Denver at Cherry Creek could use a jumpstart in the social networking department, but with just shy of 100 Facebook fans (as of press time), its prospects for Web 2.0 glory are looking favorable.

The secret to hotel Facebook success seems to lie in the level of staff involvement. Is the page updated regularly? Are there photos and/or videos? Is there a place in which guests can pony up their opinion? Does the hotel offer special online deals and incentives (because frankly, in this cash strapped economy, everyone is looking for a little gratis action). We know there are dozens of hotels (at least) using Facebook — so it seems like everyone's doing it, but are they working it to their advantage like Mariah Carey works a too-tight outfit? That’s highly debatable.
