Win a Fabulous Cocoa-cation at Mercure hotels

 

Mercure hotels and iVillage.co.uk are offering one lucky reader the chance to win the ultimate indulgent getaway to satisfy all your cocoa cravings.

 

Winner of the Mercure ‘Cocoa-cation’ will experience an array of tantalising treats for all the senses with an overnight stay at the hotel where he/she will have the choice of a range of chocotherapy spa treatments, an indulgent choctail and a delectable dining experience rounded off with a chocolate twist.

 

An overnight Cocoa-cation stay at one of 10 stylish Mercure Spa hotels around the UK includes a heavenly chocotherapy spa treatment. Chocolate is rich in antioxidants, minerals and polyphenols, which help to leave skin softer and smoother, while the uplifting aroma releases endorphins helping us to feel good about ourselves. Any tension will simply melt away as guests choose from the relaxing Chocolate Orange Back Treatment or the pampering Chocolate Orange Hand Treatment both featuring Mercure’s unique chocolate orange scrub and the silky-smooth application of warm dark chocolate for a truly blissful experience.

 

For Cocoa-cation guests, a choctail before dinner stimulates the taste buds with a decadent Chocolate Martini mixed by Mercure’s expert bar staff.

Pleasurable dining is one of the hallmarks of Mercure hotels with menus of freshly prepared, seasonal dishes, featuring locally sourced produce and regional specialities, accompanied by Mercure’s signature Grands Vins wine list of high quality regional and international fine wines.  A sumptuous three course meal in the hotel restaurant includes a cocoalicious alternative to the traditional cheeseboard with the ‘Divine Chocboard’ – a heavenly selection of high quality, Fairtrade treats, from Divine Chocolate.

 

 

The Cocoa-cation is available from £133.00 for two people for stays between 8th to 31st October 2011, at selected Mercure hotels around the UK.  For further details or to book a stay visit mercure.com or call 0871 663 0627.
