Cowboys invented the handlebar mustache so they'd always have somewhere to hang their hat. Save yourself the grooming time with today's Groupon: for $239, you get an overnight stay in a one-bedroom executive suite at the Gaylord National Resort & Convention Center, located at the National Harbor (up to a $600 value, including resort fee and taxes). This Groupon expires February 28, 2011.

Perched on the banks of the Potomac River, Gaylord National Resort welcomes its guests with a majestic 18-story glass atrium housing fluttering fountains and fully formed foliage. The 2,000-room hotel offers a variety of rooms and suites for all tastes and types of travelers—with this deal, guests will get a one-night stay in a one-bedroom executive suite. Each spacious suite offers sleeping accommodations for up to four people inside 850–1,000 square feet of luxurious lodging accented with marble finishes and custom furnishings. The resort fee included in this deal also grants guests access to many of the hotel's amenities, in-room high-speed Internet access, entry to the hotel's fitness center, and two bottles of water per day. Grab a bite to eat at Gaylord National Resort's Old Hickory Steakhouse, or grab cocktails with the ghost of Hannibal Hamlin at the two-story Pose Ultra Lounge & Nightclub, located on the hotel's 18th floor. Those in need of good cheer can scope out the hotel’s holiday happenings, including an interactive ice display carved from nearly 2 million pounds of ice, acres of dazzling lights, appearances by an extra-jolly Father Christmas, and more.

A hotel room offers a comforting escape for yourself or for others. Take a break from out-of-town guests who keep eating all your Kix, sleeping on your couch, and attempting to steal your dog by putting them up in a swanky suite for a night. The room could also be used to take a temporary staycation with the family over the holiday weekend or turn any weekend into a holiday. Two Groupons may be used for two consecutive nights, but reservations are based on availability and there is no guarantee that both nights will be open.
