The Plaza’s Shop-’til-u-Drop Package

The Plaza Hotel in New York was the fictional setting for Kay Thompson's Eloise character; now the hotel is reaching back into fiction with its "Shopaholic Weekend in New York" package, based on Sophie Kinsella's book, "Confessions of a Shopaholic," which has now been released as a film starring Isla Fisher. Here's the low-down: With the package, guests receive one night in a Plaza room or suite; a private consultation at the jewelry designer Kenneth Jay Lane's boutique; complimentary skincare consultation and brow shaping at Plaza Beauty; dinner for two at the Oak Room; and drinks for two at the Rose Club. Luckily, the package will last longer than the film is in theatres, through the end of 2009. Rates begin at $795 per night. [Map]
