The Windy City is a quick drive or plane ride for lots of folks in the Great Lakes or Midwest regions, so it’s a fun, easy escape for a midweek V-Day getaway.

New York, NY

The Big Apple is a perfectly romantic place to spend Valentine’s Day, especially for the couple who loves to party. At The Knickerbocker Hotel in Midtown, the Raise A Glass package includes a free cocktail per guest per night at the property’s gorgeous St. Cloud indoor/outdoor rooftop bar. Additionally, if you spring for a Tribute Suite, you’ll enjoy an in-room mix-your-own Martini bar. If Brooklyn is more your scene, hop across the East River to Williamsburg’s The William Vale. Grab the Drinks & Views package to enjoy a $40 credit to the 22nd-floor rooftop bar Westlight, where you’ll find sweeping views of Manhattan and a pretty excellent opportunity to pop the question, if that’s in the cards.
