* Charlotte
* Minneapolis
* Seattle
* Portland
* Sacramento
And today I will be in the following:
* Oakland
* Phoenix
* CHARLOTTE! Home sweet home.
Yes, that is an insane amount of airports. And, I've also been on one train and I've stayed in five different hotels.
The travel can get a little crazy, and the days have been long. When I was booking hotels for this trip, I found a great hotel in Lafayette, California. I typically stay at the same brand of hotel, but this one was only about $10 more and they were running a promotion where a spa service was included.
SOLD.
The Lafayette Park Hotel & Spa is just beautiful as you drive up. I checked in right in time for my facial. Stephanie was my aesthetician and she introduced me to Pevonia products. Rather than using a scrub or brush to exfoliate my face, she used this amazing pineapple and papaya enzyme peel. My skin was so smooth the next morning.

Definitely one of the best facials I've ever had!
The rest of the hotel is just beautiful. I snapped a few more pictures on the way out to dinner, which was a separate adventure in itself.
Definitely a lovely time, but I am so very happy to be traveling back to Charlotte tonight!
This post warms my heart. I went to college close to Lafayette (in Moraga) and got married in Walnut Creek. We stayed at the Lafayette Park on our wedding night before we left for our honeymoon. Love seeing these pictures!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful hotel! And Minneapolis is close to my hometown!
ReplyDeleteI grew up in the area, and have been there many times! It's such a pretty hotel! and the restaurant there is very good as well :)
ReplyDeleteI hope you have a very restful weekend - you need it!
ReplyDeletelove when travel works out with those little unexpected perks!! the facial sounds amazing, too, I love making at-home skin care with food - fresh & all natural!!

I LOVE hotel bathrobes! :-)
ReplyDeleteThat looks like a lovely stay! You've been a busy lady. I hope you enjoy the rest of your travels!
ReplyDeleteWhat a nice hotel! Glad you were able to sneak in a little pampering during all of that travel time. I don't know if I could be in that many airports/planes during the week - I give you major props.
ReplyDeleteOh my stars, you have been traveling quite a bit lately. This looks like a wonderful hotel. Glad you got to paper yourself a bit. Have a good weekend at home!
ReplyDeleteXO,

Spa while on the road!! That's what I'm talking about! I need a facial!
ReplyDeleteNice that you were able to squeeze in a visit to the spa!!! :)
ReplyDeleteMy goodness that's a lot of traveling. What's your secret to keeping it together? My skin tends to suffer the most when jet setting! Maybe I'll add facials to the travel regiment?
ReplyDeleteI just saw that deal, but can't find myself wanting to stay at a hotel that close to my home town:) Glad it was a nice trip, I'll have to try their treatments soon!
Thanks for sharing!
