Smart Winter Travel with Extended Stay Hotels

November 24, 2009 | Permalink

When considering good places for fall and winter travel, destinations like Florida and Arizona typically come to mind.  Snowbirds annually flock to these spots to escape the wintry chill.  Seasoned travelers to these areas know that Extended Stay Hotels offers clean, comfortable rooms at an affordable rate during the winter months and year 'round in both states. 

For those looking to escape the snowbirds as well as the snow, there’s another option: the San Francisco Bay Area.  From November through April, you can access world class sites without having to put up with the crush of summer tourists.  Plus, the average daytime temperatures are comfortably in the 60s. 

While the San Francisco region may have a reputation for high priced hotels, you can find great rates on large, comfortable rooms at any of the 16 Extended Stay Hotels across the region.  Included among these terrific properties is the Extended Stay America Fairfield - Napa Valley Hotel.  

This beautiful hotel is just 15 miles from the beginning of the world famous Silverado Trail. Called the Napa Valley’s Road Less Traveled, the Silverado Trail parallels Napa’s more heavily traveled St. Helena Highway, but still takes you past thousands of acres of the world’s best wine vineyards.  Be sure to stop at one of the area’s great wineries for tasting and a very special memento of your trip. 

Two of natures wonders, the Old Faithful Geyser and the Petrified Forest, are nearby sights well worth the time to stop and explore.  You don’t have to travel to Yellowstone Park to see one of nature’s geologic timepieces.  Just minutes from the Silverado Trail is California’s Old Faithful Geyser with its regular steam eruptions that occur about every 30 minutes. 

And just minutes from Old Faithful is another of nature’s wonders, the Petrified Forest.  This hike of about a half mile takes you back in time millions of years.  As the result of a major volcanic eruption about 3.4 million years ago, giant trees were trapped under tons of ash, ultimately being turned into stone. 

Winter weather need not stifle your travel plans, even in places we think might be beyond our budget.  With low rates, comfortable accommodations and proximity to world class tourist attractions, Extended Stay Hotels is the ideal choice in the San Francisco Bay Area and hundreds of major cities coast to coast.
