Cubicle Dreamin': Going Public With a 'Women's Fiction' Addiction
Cubicle Dreamin' is a feature in which we ask the hotel mavens to take some time out of their busy work day, surf the Internet, and tell us what hotel they wish they could beam themselves to right that very second--all on the slave driving companies dime, of course. Oh, like these people aren't surfing aimlessly anyway--at least now their purposeless clicking will be cobbled together into useful hotel stories--we hope. Have a destination hotel you are just dying to leave your cube for? Send the story our way.
In this episode, Senior Editor Juliana details a "Women's Fiction"-inspired escape. Enjoy.
I don't really buy into hotel romance packages. As HotelChatter's own Tim Leffel has consistently pointed out, romance packages are just another way for hotels to overcharge you for silly stuff like chocolate-covered strawberries and erotic bath soaks.
Although once upon a time, a hotel did decorate my bed with rose petals and it kinda melted my hard hotel-critiquing exterior.
But I am intrigued by a recent Valentine's Day hotel package that I came across and my interest really has nothing to do with love and everything to do with a new obsession with Tudor monarchs.
You see, I was bored in the airport one day and I bought a copy of The Other Boleyn Girl a historical novel about Anne Boleyn's sister (who was real.) Well, two months later and I am pretty much done with the entire backlist of Philippa Gregory's novels about the Tudors.
Yes. My name is Juliana and I am addicted to Women's Fiction novels about Tudor Monarchs. (But at least I'm learning some history, ok?) Which is why this package from the Stafford Hotel in London has me anxiously wishing I could flee my "cubicle" and spend a night or two in London.
