Via Netflix
After suffering through that brutal, punishing winter we just had, what better way to celebrate the beginning of summer and nice weather than by sitting in a hotel room with your friends for 13 hours, watching the new season of Orange Is The New Black straight through for $350? I can think of none.
That’s right, for $350, a release states, you can buy a “Binge Watching” package at Kimpton’s Hotel Rouge near Scott Circle beginning June 6. For that price, you and a group of up to ten friends can sit in a darkened room for 13 hours straight, watching season two of the hit Netflix show, sitting in “oversized bean bag chairs” and munching on snacks. Although Rouge’s basic “Binge Watching” package includes the rental of their “Red Hot or Lava event space for minimum three hours,” a 50-inch TV with laptop access and Google Chromecast, free Wi-Fi, ten “oversized bean bag chairs,” and free popcorn, you have to provide your own Netflix account.
But wait, it gets better: For $500, you can get all of the above, plus catering from the hotel’s bar, along with a supply of non-alcoholic beverages. And, for a mere $750, you can all that plus house red/white wine and local craft brews.
So, if you like Orange is the New Black, binge watching, and being inside for 13 hours in a row, and hate being outside and/or watching TV in your own home, well then, Hotel Rouge is the place for you on June 6.
