Academic Ambassadors: Hotel Palomar

We are happily extending our partnership with the stylish (and ever competent) Kimpton Hotels to Big D!

With signature style and fine dining, the newborn Palomar is offered to Academic Ambassadors at our Kimpton-wide discount of the Best Available Rate minus 20% (for the remainder of 2010). Click here and type our code GBP0330 (all CAPs) into the Global Business ID box to access our discount.

[note to members: This one just opened, so I haven't had a chance to fully vet it yet (though I made sure the location was prime). Not really a leap of faith given the Kimpton track record, still I will augment the description when member reviews come in].

The seal of approval does come to the Palomar's sister hotel in the tony Park Cities part of Dallas (directly across from SMU) from a member from Stanford who swears by the place. The Hotel Lumen, as its name implies, is light-filled and vibrant. Our guy on the ground says the service, the ambiance and the value are as terrific as the location. I trust this guy!

Book by clicking here (our discount access code will come up automatically) to access our Kimpton-wide discount of 20% off their Best Available Rate (BAR) (for the remainder of 2010).

[as for all the Kimpton Hotels (www.kimptonhotels.com) our discount code for the Global Business ID box on the reservation page is: GBP0330]
