No matter how you stack them, books make great gifts. And the folks at Belgraves hotel and TASCHEN reckon they can be fantastic Christmas decorations too!
Keep reading to find out how you can win a TASCHEN book and afternoon tea for two with a Christmas treee view at Belgraves, a Thompson hotel.
Luxury hotel Belgraves has teamed up with uber cool publishers TASCHEN to create a Christmas tree installation that gives guests and visitors a quirky and exceptionally stylish take on festive season traditions. Made from 385 TASCHEN titles including Taschen’s Favourite Hotels, Billy Wilder’s Some Like It Hot and Julius Shulman’s Modernism Rediscovered, the seven foot tall tree is on display now until the 5th of January at Belgraves.
To help get the word out about this lovely holiday installation, and spread a bit of Christmassy cheers, Belgraves and TASCHEN have come up with a tree-mendous #BelgravesTaschenTree giveaway for my readers. Yep, I’ve got a free afternoon tea for two at Belgraves plus a copy of TASCHEN’s Tree Houses: Fairy Tale Castles in the Air to share with one of you lucky readers.
To be in with a chance to win the free afternoon tea for two at Belgraves along with the copy of TASCHEN’s Tree Houses book simply tweet the following:
I’ll pick one winner at random next Friday (14 December 2012) by noon (British time). Obviously, you’ll need to be in London to enjoy the tea and you’ll need a UK mailing address to receive the book.
While the tree is on display, Belgraves will also retail a curated selection of TASCHEN books via the hotel’s mini-bar offerings. A number of special new titles including The James Bond Archives, Gustav Klimt: The Complete Paintings and Her Majesty will be on display in the hotel’s lobby and can be purchased through the Belgraves’ concierge.
As part of this fun collaboration, Belgraves will also feature TASCHEN Magazine in-room, with a special VIP edition of the magazine available complimentary to those staying in any of the hotel’s sumptuous suites. Belgraves’ guests will also get a 10% discount available on all purchases made in TASCHEN’s Kings Road shop.
