When I was in the Los Angeles area I had the pleasure of staying at the Fairmont Hotel in Newport Beach, California. The Fairmont was dramatic change from the normal Super 8 and Motel 6’s I normally stay at. In fact, I sort of felt a bit odd pulling up to a fancy hotel in my dirty car that I hadn’t washed in over two months on the road. I’d like to thank the Fairmont for the room and the nice break from motels.
I spoke with Rei Strand (@FairmontNewport), the marketing director at the Newport Beach Fairmont about passing along some of the love to my readers and she agreed. The offer is good for 15% off of quoted room rates.
If you are in the Newport Beach area (it is very close to the John Wayne Airport in Orange County) you can either:
- Register online at www.fairmont.com/newportbeach and use the coupon code 2U8GAR.
- Call 800-441-1414 and ask for the “Gary Rocks” offer.
There is no ending date on this promotion, so it should be good whenever you are in Orange County.
