*CLOSED* Fall Getaway at the London Plaza on the River + 30,000 Club Carlson Hotel Points Giveaway

September 21, 2016 by Dana Zeliff 201 Comments

Have you planned your Fall getaway? My family trip to London is just around the corner. We plan to spend 1-week on a road trip visiting Oxford, Stratford-upon-Avon, Thornbury and Bath.  Then it’s off for a visit of Windsor Castle before arriving in London for a week of fun in the big city.

Finding accommodation in London has not been easy. What area should we stay?  Are there any central hotels in our budget?  Is pubic transport within walking distance? The questions are endless.   That’s why I love how easy it is to visit the Club Carlson site for booking.  No more shopping around on multiple sites trying to find the lowest hotel rates.  Simply go directly to Carlson Rezidor Hotel Group website to get the best rate plus save up to 10% more by being a member.  You’ll save time not having to search around for hotel discounts as well as money.

Plaza on the River Room

About Park Plaza, Plaza on the River in London

I found the perfect hotel on the Club Carlson website – Park Plaza, Plaza on the River which is located on the banks of the River Thames.   You can’t ask for more stunning views than of the Houses of Parliament and Big Ben!

This London hotel is just a short walk from Vauxhall and within easy reach of the financial district, the West End, Westminster Abbey, the London Eye and several other attractions. The location will make it perfect for my family to get around to hit all the London hotspots.   After exploring the attractions near the hotel, our other must visit sites such as the Tower of London, London Bridge and the British Museum will be a short tube ride away.

Food at Plaza on the River

 

Booking one of the 128 suites will give us amenities such as FREE Wi-Fi (a must for my family), a fitness centre, business services and the Pan-Asian Chino Latino Restaurant & Bar – YUM.  Also, children ages 12 years and younger stay free of charge when sharing with an adult. This is super important when traveling as a family. I’ve lost count of the number of places that wanted to charge extra for the kids!

Why Join Club Carlson?

The new Members Only Rate Exclusive (MORE) from Club Carlson gives members the exclusive opportunity to save up to 10 percent more off the lowest available rate at participating hotels when booking directly on Carlson Rezidor Hotel Group (Radisson Blu, Radisson, Radisson RED, Park Plaza, Park Inn by Radisson and Country Inns & Suites By Carlson) brand websites, mobile sites, and mobile apps.

The Members Only Rate Exclusive complements the collection of exceptional benefits, services and privileges Club Carlson members already enjoy, including

• 20 points per U.S. dollar spent on rooms and food and beverages purchases
• Award Nights starting at 9,000 points with no blackout dates
• food and beverage discounts
• Elite status after just 10 Eligible Stays

Members also have access to a wide range of partner redemption opportunities including airline miles, retail gift cards, as well as TSA PreCheck® application fee (U.S. residents only), and more.

Plaza on the River

*CLOSED* The winner is Elena

I’m excited to give away 30,000 Club Carlson Hotel Points to one (1) lucky reader.   I want you to have your dream getaway this Fall as well.   Since hotel stays start at 9,000 points per night, you could end up with 3 nights of accommodation at a Club Carlson hotel!

    Luckily, Carlson group has a couple of amazingly beautiful resorts over there.
    Have my heart set on the Radisson Blu Poste Lafayette resort over there.

    Also, being a travel lover myself, following you on all three mediums is not optional at all for me. I had to 🙂
