Kimpton Hotels Extends Travel Industry 'Free Spree' Programme for 2012

Kimpton Hotels has extended its special travel industry 'Free Spree' agent rate programme, after its success in 2011. The programme, which is open to the UK travel trade, offers the chance to experience any of Kimpton’s 50-plus US-wide hotels on a best available rate for the first night and enjoy a complimentary second night.

The programme, which runs through 2012, will allow travel industry specialists across Europe to benefit from first-hand knowledge of the Kimpton products, enabling them to advise their customers about the ‘Kimpton culture’ and its wide ranging portfolio of properties.

Industry guests will have the opportunity to sample the famous Kimpton wine hour, relax in the signature leopard-skin robes, and indulge in the renowned chef-name restaurants. Guests can also give valuable feedback after a site inspection of the property.

Cindy Brewster, Director of International & Leisure Sales comments "We’re very excited to extend our Free Spree programme, as we understand that it’s key for the travel and hospitality industry to experience the products they sell first-hand. By inviting industry guests to experience our properties and familiarise themselves with the Kimpton brand and unique culture, we hope to encourage them to promote Kimpton Hotels to their clients."

The offer is available to all travel agents, as well as staff from tour operators, airlines, and receptive partners. Reservations can be made by simply using SPREE in the rate code box at www.KimptonHotels.com. Guests need to present valid company identification.

Free Spree 2012 is already valid at the new Miami Beach hotel, The Surfcomber, and San Diego property, Hotel Palomar. More properties to come soon in 2012…
