Calling all shopaholics: the Mondrian Hotel Los Angeles is offering a special shopping package with major discounts at some of LA’s hottest boutiques. The chic luxury hotel wants to give fashionistas a little extra holiday cheer this season by knocking down prices at stores along nearby Sunset Boulevard and Melrose Place. Deals range from 20 percent off retail prices at Diane Von Furstenberg to $100 off a purchase of $500 or more at Ports 1961. On top of that, the Mondrian is throwing in valet hotel parking and a $100 hotel credit (deducted at checkout) for use at the trendy Skybar, Asia de Cuba restaurant or Agua Spa. To get a jumpstart on your holiday shopping – or buy yourself all the gifts you didn’t get – call for reservations at 800/606-6090 or book online and use code PKSEAS. Rates start at $295/night, depending on availability. The package is good through January 10, 2010.
