Washington, D.C., from $139 per room per night
Instead of staying with your in-laws, you might prefer to stay in a room that's painted in vibrant colors and decorated with funky, modern furniture. (A room close to a lively bar might not hurt, either.) Well, if you're visiting the nation's capital during the holidays, you can. Seven Kimpton hotels in downtown D.C. are offering the Take the Elevator Home discount of 20 percent off regular rates. This means you could pay $139 a night at Hotel Monaco or the Hotel George. The special is also available at these hotels, but at higher rates: Topaz Hotel, Hotel Rouge, Hotel Helix, Hotel Madera, and Hotel Palomar.

When: Through Dec. 30, 2008.
