THE BOLTON RE-GIFT 🎁⁠
⁠
Santa’s been and gone, and we have a few extra treats to share!⁠
⁠
Twenty Maraca room scent diffusers, gifted to us by luxury brand Maraca to mark our 20 years and the introduction of Maraca toiletries across all guest rooms with Astro Hospitality.⁠
⁠
Rather than keep them to ourselves, we're passing them on!⁠
⁠
Book your 2026 stay direct with us by 31 January and you will go into the draw.⁠
⁠
Twenty lucky guests will arrive to find a Maraca diffuser waiting in their room. A small, considered luxury to start the year well.⁠
