Depends, is it a FS property and is it a popular spot for V-day? If so I think your chances are slim regardless but if it's just a local hotel and not a "V-day hot spot" then I think it might be worth asking at least. What's the worse they can say?

It's never cheeky to politely request an upgrade. The worst they can say is no, and then you're no worse off anyway.

Try and reply back and offer 40 for a full bottle and an upgrade if you want to be cheeky
