 Take the four for ten offer of the Leela Palaces and Resorts. If you spend 10 nights at any of the Leela hotels in Mumbai, Bangalore and Goa between June and October 2003 you get four nights free.

 Complimentary stays can be availed anytime during August 2003 to October 2003 and April 2004 to September 2004.

 Okay. Spending ten nights in a three month period is too much of a problem. Spend just five and get two nights free.

 You feel that the food at the Leela will cost a bomb while you stay. Simply join the connoisseur Club. A silver level membership comes for Rs 5,750 and Gold one for Rs 9,750.

 Everytime you dine you get a 20 per cent discount on the bill. You bring in one guest, the bill goes down by 50 per cent.

 Bring in two and the bill is down 33 per cent. Bring in three and you get a discount of 25 per cent. For four guests and above, the bill goes down by 20 per cent.
