Valentine’s Day doesn’t have to mean boring, and nothings says ‘you put the sparkle in my life’ like a flute of champagne. It looks as if a few hotels agree too. Just look at these luscious Champagne and Caviar experiences that show your beloved, your boo or your best girlfriends that you heart them on Valentine’s Day, and every day.
The Maria Bar at The Hotel Maria, Helsinki, Finland
Grand and glimmering chandeliers glisten like ice in The Bar Maria while more than a dozen champagnes are available to accompany French Sturia caviar (served with a sourdough “Abbleskive” and toast accompanied by homemade crème fraîche, crushed organic eggs, shallots and chives), making it a stand out among romantics.
For those looking for sparkle and sheen inside the glass and out, the Maria Bar ratchets up the glam factor.
The Society: State & Mason at Hotel Californian, Santa Barbara, California
Hotel Californian’s chic seaside tasting room known for its impressive collection of more than 70 wines from the Foley Family Wines portfolio, has an exclusive Caviar + Bubbles offering that celebrates this timeless coupling. The Caviar + Bubbles experience includes a selection of award-winning Sterling Caviar complemented by sieved egg whites, grated egg yolk, cultured crème fraiche, house-made sour cream, and onion potato chips.
A selection of Sterling Caviar – award-winning for both taste and sustainability — is California-made and has been named a Seafood Watch “Best Choice” by Monterey Bay Aquarium. It’s also a favorite amongst chefs and connoisseurs.
The BoTree Bar at The BoTree Hotel, London, UK
The BoTree Bar will be celebrating its first Valentine’s Day this February (the hotel opened September 2023) with seductive offerings including half a dozen oysters on the half shell with caviar and limoncello mignonette, and a Caviar Sandwich with egg salad, caviar and homemade chips. Both can be paired with champagne or a specialty cocktails. Your honey might like the Bees by the BoTree, made with Seven Tails XO, pomelo, honey, saffron, lemon and champagne.
