Working Mamas Hit the Road to Relaxation:

20% off Massages for Road Warrior Mamas to Celebrate Alone Time If they show a picture of their kids at Jolly Hotel Madison Towers

Edited by Madelyn Miller

Time spent on the road for business travel is often the only time working mothers have to themselves, call it a guilty pleasure if you will.  In celebration of this alone time, Jolly Hotel Madison Towers, New York City’s only Italian hotel, pampers road warrior mamas for hard work at home and in the office with a discount on a much-needed massage.

Women business travelers who flash a snapshot of their kids when checking into the hotel between January 1 and December 31, 2004 will receive 20% off a Shiatsu massage at the hotel’s renowned Madison Towers Health Spa.*  Nightly rates at Jolly Hotel Madison Towers start at $214.**  

“Between the kids, the house, the husband and the office, working mothers have little, if any, alone time.  This breed of road warriors might even breath a bit easier when they take their home warrior hat off and hit the road on business,” said Rosanna Coscia, general manager, Jolly Hotel Madison Towers.  “We figured the least we could do for these hard working mothers is to be pamper them.  God knows they don’t have much time to themselves when at home.”

My kids are old enough to have their own kids. (I am not hitting about being a grandmother, so don’t feel any pressure kids) So I hope they won’t laugh when I bring pictures of my margin trading son and computer wiz daughter.

Jolly Hotel Madison Towers’ Madison Towers Health Spa is an Oriental Spa with services including tranquil shiatsu massages, soothing saunas, steam rooms and a calming Jacuzzi.
