Valentine’s Day challenge – stay off the net

[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]One of the main goals of going on vacation is to disconnect – but one Swedish hotel takes the saying quite literally. This Valentine’s Day, Hotel Bellora in Gothenburg is running a special challenge to get people to stay off social media and spend more time in the real world – together.

The Check Out Suite’s luxurious, well-appointed accommodations will be yours to stay in for free on Valentine’s Day: only if you can stay completely off the internet for the length of your stay.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]

For every minute spent online, the price of the suite increases by several dollars.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_empty_space][vc_column_text]
