Yet another reason to love the W hotels

I love W hotels. Really. I've been to the first W in Chicago and also spent a weekend at the W Times Square with friends some time ago. Very classy places.

Now even cooler, they're offering a super geek-deal (via James):

"Once a month, remix your Tuesday with iTunes® Day at W Hotels. This is your invitation to mix it up in a digital soundscape. Join other W Hotel guests and live DJs for this monthly event in select cities."

They are specifically offering
iTunes CD with free iTunes music download - while they last!
Experience iPod and iTunes
Shuffle in for "AppleiTini" drink specials while DJs spin music off iPods
iPod/iMac giveaways at each event

If the AppleiTinis are anything like the W Times Square Apple martinis, you're in for a treat.

Downside: being a SPG Platinum means nothing at the W Times Square. While I got a jacuzzi suite upgrade in Chicaco, the Armani-clad reception staff offered paid upgrades to suites (= they were available) but just looked quizzically at me and replied slightly depreciatory when I asked to get it for free (as one generally is entitled to as a Platinum. Ah well. Enough whining, go there anyway. It's cool.
