Giving Thanks For YOU With A $100 Hotel Credit Giveaway

November 25, 2010 By Suzy

Last year I wrote a post on giving thanks for travel on this American Thanksgiving Day.

“Looking back on my travels throughout the year, I have countless photos and memories. I have visited new places like Belgium, Luxembourg, and Hawaii. I spent time in Austria, Germany, Italy, Massachusetts, and Arkansas. In other words, I am truly thankful for these places and the people that make travel so intriguing. Without them, I would be speechless, an adjective that never describes me.”

This year, I am of the same mindset with travel, but it also goes a little deeper. Being able to write about my travels and travel all around Europe and the United States is a true gift. While it sounds incredibly cliché, I wouldn’t be here without anyone and everyone that reads this site. To thank readers for stopping by with their comments, tweets and the like, for joining me on my travels and putting up with my rants, Hotel Club is giving away a $100 hotel credit for one lucky winner here. If it buys you one night in a hotel, one night of free travel, I’m happy.

I will use a random number generator to select the winner. You can enter once a day up until December 2nd at 6PM EST. I will reveal the winner on December 4th. All you have to do is comment with where you would use the hotel credit. Perhaps it will change everyday, but who wouldn’t want to look like the following image while using this credit?

Thanks for reading and good luck!

    I’m Canadian, but even though it’s not Thanksgiving for me I think anytime is a good time to be grateful for what you have. A friend of mine was in a really bad car accident. She’s going to be okay but it reminded me that things can change in an instant. It’s so important to make each day count, and live life to the fullest. And when I travel I feel like I’m living.

    Right now if I had to pick one place to go to, aside from everywhere, I would say New Orleans. I’ve been thinking about visiting for a long time. What little I know about it fascinates me, and I want to go there and find out more. I’d love to go there once my school semester is over.

    I want to look like the image posted but I think you’d need to throw in a personal trainer too 😉 I think I’ll take my hotel credit and jet off to Turkey. It’s been on my bucket list for a while now. And Suzy, you’re welcome to join me 🙂

    Happy Thanksgiving Suzy.

    I’ve signed up to do another GranFondo bike ride between Vancouver & Whistler next September, so a gift certificate would allow me to spend the night in Whistler after the race. That would be a real treat.

    I’ve been hearing a lot of good things about Montreal lately, so I’d have to say I’d use the credit there.

    Hi Suzy, Cool competition.

    My bucket list is to travel throughout the whole of Turkey so I would use the voucher on a hotel in the town of Izmir on the Aegean coast. Heard Izmir has some smashing hotels!

    Buenos Aires, Argentina!!!

    I’d use it somewhere in Colorado for a quick escape!

    Given half a chance, I’d use my hotel credit in Edinburgh. I’ve bee3n to London and Dublin, but I feel as if I’m omitting something vital, not having seen Scotland. I’d truly be thankful for that opportunity.

    I’m in for Buenos Aires, Argentina. I just arrived, and I’m very over hostels at this point. SAVE ME!

    Thanks for sharing this opportunity with us! I would love to use this hotel credit in The Canary Islands for a warm escape 🙂

    We are going to NYC for my birthday in Feb. and would love to stay somewhere a little nicer than normal- this would help out so much! Thanks, Suzy! Love contests!!!

    I’ve got my eye on a few choice destinations to treat my Soul Soother to a Valentine’s break in the sun – Cairo is currently top of the list and that is where I would use my gift.

    I would use the generous gift card to offset the rate at some Washington, DC that I cannot otherwise afford. Best wishes!

    Great promotion, Suzy! I would use my hotel credit in Vancouver, BC for TBEX in June.

    I’m headed to France for two weeks, as a 30th birthday present to myself. I would most definitely use my credit there so I could worry less about lodging and spend more time ENJOYING all that France has to offer!

    Another place I’ve always wanted to go to, Morocco. I was browsing around on an astrology site (just for fun) and apparently Morocco is one of the best places in the world for me to go to, because it’s got ‘good psychic energy.’ That, plus the culture, food, architecture and pretty much everything else about it is enough to convince me to go.

    We would use it to kick off our RTW next year in style!

    And perhaps Amy & I would try to recreate the HotelClub image while using the credit just to show our thanks! 😀

    I’m from Manila, Philippines. 🙂

    So, where would I use the hotel gift cheque? I have an upcoming trip to Borneo for August 2011, and would definitely want to use the hotel voucher to save on expenses! 🙂 It’s going to be a two week trip covering Kota Kinabalu & Miri.

    Can I enter even though I’m giving away a voucher on my site, too?! If so, I would totally use it on my USA trip in June. Woo!

    Love a good Giveaway!

    We would use it in Bora Bora in French Polynesia… it seems to be calling us! Cheers 😉

    I would love to use that credit for a little weekend getaway to Strasbourg for the Christmas markets, or to Venise that I have always wanted to see but haven’t been to yet…

  22. T-roy says

    November 29, 2010 at 2:52 PM

    in India, where I am going in Feb for 3-4 months for the first time!

  23. Ruby E says

    November 29, 2010 at 8:47 PM

    Okay, have just booked another ticket which I could use the travel voucher for! =)

    one last entry before this contest closes.

    vietnam for this entry, last entry is supposed to be for cambodia for next year’s trip too 🙂

    I’d save it for my next trip to SE Asia where I’d splurge with a nice hotel – $100 will go a long ways in Thailand!

  27. Andi says

    December 1, 2010 at 6:02 PM

    Buenos Aires, Argentina baby!

  28. T-roy says

    December 1, 2010 at 6:10 PM

    Ok, if not India, I will use it in Brazil later in 2011. Know it costs a little more there, so would help balance things out back to Peru and Ecuador levels!

    Hi, i would love it to take me away to Cairns Australia and the Reef!

    Happy belated Thanksgiving Suzy!

    I would use the credit in Zurich, Switzerland next April. I am spending a few nights there and am amazed how expensive everything is!

  31. Laura says

    December 2, 2010 at 10:08 AM

    Today, I’m thinking that I will go to Buenos Aires to learn Spanish!

    Right now, I am thinking I’d go to Qatar to see the world cup in 2022

About Suzy Guese

After a childhood of keeping road trips interesting around the U.S, stints in Western Europe as an angsty teen and a study abroad year in Italy in college, I decided to make traveling and writing my way of living. My travels are laced with hints of a redheaded temperament, proof that my hair color is indeed natural. SuzyGuese.com is where I solve packing predicaments, blurt out my travel secrets, rant about nomad injustices and share where the road takes me in hopes that it might take you there too.
