By all accounts, New Year's resolutions are ubiquitous, but usually more aspirational than actually effective. The resolutions that are more fun-oriented rather than work or diet-oriented are usually the first to get done. Taking time out to travel, exploring new adventures, is also very high on the list.

Recognizing this, LWH Hotels is launching its "Fresh Start" program in 43 participating LWH Hotels, globally. The program offers travelers a chance to begin travel in early 2014 with "Fresh Start" packages and promotions designed to encourage guests to avail themselves of all the one-time "specials" offered at participating hotels, which are located in exotic places around the world or in old-time favorite locations. Either way, "Fresh Start" can trigger that travel bug to explore some of the best destinations across the globe.

The 43 participating LWH Hotels can be found in as far away places as Sydney and Melbourne, Australia, Sapporo and Tokyo, Japan, Dongguan and Hong Kong, China, Istanbul and Van, Turkey, Budapest, Hungary, Ennis, Ireland, and all-time favorites such as Paris, France, London, UK, and Barcelona, Spain. Then there are some properties in the Caribbean, Mexico, Canada, and in the U.S., a myriad of diverse hotels across America, from Beverly Hills, California to New York, and from Florida to Illinois, Ohio to Arizona and San Diego to San Francisco.

There are participating hotels in the center of cosmopolitan cities, as well as resort-like destinations. Some offer snapshot views into a new culture, while others offer a getaway from day-to-day business.

But for whatever reason, this is a great time for travelers to take advantage of a sizeable percentage off the best available rate, restaurant meals, massage or spa packages, or be part of wine tastings and receptions.

Fresh Start packages are available to book now through the LWH Hotels website. However, valid trip dates differ at each hotel through April. As such, details as to which hotels are part of the package and what is offered can be viewed on the LWH Hotels website at: http://www.lwhhotels.com/pdf/freshstart2014.pdf.
