ALBANY, GA (WALB) –Albany businesses team with visitor bureau officials to get more guests to stay overnight in town for the holidays.
They are inviting people to shop and relax with a special holiday package.
The package includes a stay in one of 8 hotels, breakfast, two spa treatments, two movie tickets, and a twenty dollar gift.
The price for the package averages around $150, depending on the hotel you select.
Convention and Visitors Bureau Lisa Riddle said "We're providing people with the opportunity to come to town and spend the night, and get a little bit extra more for coming to Albany, along with their shopping. Because we know the people in the Southeast are coming here to shop for Christmas anyway."
