Luxury weekend break-ups (From The Northern Echo)

Luxury weekend break-ups

How do you fancy a weekend break in a luxury hotel? What about a weekend break-up? That’s what’s on offer in the Netherlands with a new concept known as the Divorce Hotel.

There separating couples can hole themselves up together for a weekend, albeit in separate single rooms.

During their stay they get the benefits of lawyers and mediation services to help them work out the terms of their split, as well as the facilities of the hotel for “time-out.”

At the end of their stay it is anticipated that an agreement will have been reached that encompasses arrangements for children and finance, all reached in a relaxing environment.

Curiously I couldn’t find any last minute deals for such a stay, but I’m sure it’s only a matter of time.
