The Mandarin Oriental, Paris has unveiled its Selfie in Paris promotion, pairing the social media trend with a tour of the City of Lights’ most iconic landmarks.
Taking this Athens hotel’s “selfie spot” a few steps further, the world’s most expensive hotel is offering the package from October 1 until January 31.
The Selfie in Paris package includes:
- - Accommodation for one night at Mandarin Oriental, Paris
- - Breakfast for two in-room or at Camélia
- - Complimentary Wi-Fi in-room and in-car
- - Private car (Mercedes-Benz E-Class) and a chauffeur for 3 hours
- - List of insider tips on the best locations to take a selfie in Paris
Any selfie from one of the approved MO Selfie Spots between October and January will enter participants into a monthly prize draw, provided they post publically to Facebook, Twitter, Instagram or Google+ and include the contest hashtag (#MOselfiecontest) and the official Mandarin Oriental, Paris username @MO_PARIS.
The competition gives the winner a complimentary night’s stay at the hotel, which is fully booked until late October. Rates for the package begin at EUR 995 (US $1313).
To ensure guests put their best side forward, the hotel is encouraging Guerlain make-up sessions at The Spa at Mandarin Oriental, Paris – but the treatment is priced at an additional EUR 135 ($178).
Perhaps the couple selfies will soon replace the lovelocks of Le Pont des Arts, which has struggled to cope with the weight of romantic gestures heaped upon its grates.
