Benjamin Franklin, who wrote in a letter in 1789 that nothing in life was certain except "death and taxes," would be proud that his adage has still worn well for over 200 years.
If you've diligently filed your paperwork, then thank your stars and sit back, swirl a glass of Champagne and enjoy some quality down time at these vetted places that are specifically offering tax-themed packages.
The Time Hotel, New York, NY
At the Rockwell-group designed Theater District property with its popular banquette-seating Northern Italian restaurant, Serafina, guests who make a reservation on Monday, April 18, for a future stay will receive up to a 20 percent discount on room rates, as well as two buy-one-get-one drink vouchers at the hotel's bar lounge, Le Grande.
Book with the code "Taxthat."
Income Tax Bar, Chicago, IL
The new 50-seat Income Tax restaurant which just opened its doors in Chicago's Edgewater neighborhood, will debut a special cocktail on April 18. The namesake cocktail, a gin-based classic dating back to the 1920's, is a blend of Americano Blanco, Red Vermouth, orange and bitters, specially priced at $6 for the occasion.
Owner Nelson Fitch, a Northwestern University graduate who is also a Mezcal specialist, says that the original cocktail that he's recreated "was invented shortly after the institution of our federal income tax. It's essentially a Bronx cocktail with the addition of bitters. Stylistically, it fits somewhere between a Martinez and Negroni."

At this 390-room casino located south of the Vegas strip, the spa is pulling out the stops to give guests some relaxation through a specific "Tax Relief Package" priced at $250. Guests get a 50-minute relaxation massage, followed by a 50-minute facial and a 50-minute pedicure.
