Movie Marathon Weekends For Flick-Starved Guests at The Westin New York at Times Square

In time for 76th Annual Academy Awards

NYC, December 17, 2003 - Given that adults are finding it harder to carve out time for a delicious escape to the movies, The Westin New York at Times Square has created Movie Marathon Weekends to treat the flick-starved among us to a weekend of unlimited movies. Valid Friday, Saturday and Sunday nights January 9 through March 31, 2004 and priced at $239 per night,* the Movie Marathon package includes one-night accommodations and unlimited movies passes for two. When booking please ask for the MOVIE rate plan.

"Guests won't even need to done coats to take in movies to their hearts' content since the passes are for the 13-theater Loews Cineplex just downstairs from the hotel's upper-story lobby," said John Sweeney, general manager of The Westin New York at Times Square.

This way the movie deprived may have a passing chance of guessing at least some of the Oscar winners correctly in this year's office Academy Awards pool!
