When it comes to celebrating my birthday, I want to have a low-key, high- vibe, good time. Having a group of waitresses sing happy birthday to me while I wear a silly hat is out of the question. Laid back, luxury with a quick, “happy birthday” from the receptionist at the hotel, along with a glass of bubbly sounds, to me, like a great start to a celebration.
I’m not the one to really want to have a full on party, but I’d like to have a special day. And, traveling on my birthday seems to have become a theme. I always want to enjoy flowers and cake, but for some hotels, that’s just the beginning. These 3 hotels help you catch a whole vibe for your birthday and they aren’t afraid to take a little direction from you to make sure it’s perfect.
