Well, I wouldn't go so far as to say "any asshole can book a hotel room," because I think it does take planning and foresight. It is a very nice thing to do for someone.
However, and I was just thinking about this today on my way home from work... I would take a handwritten love letter or poem over a material gift or fancy to-do, any day. There are so many opportunities to give actual gifts (birthday, Christmas, anniversary) but very rarely do people just sit down and write out how and why they love the other person.
I think that if anything, V-day is a great chance to limit the materialism and play up on the original idea of giving a "valentine" (a love letter, of sorts).
Just a thought. Of course, this doesn't apply if your gf thinks diamonds and manicures are a girl's best friend...
