Kimpton Rolls Out business Program
SAN FRANCISCO, CA, August 21, 2006. Kimpton Hotels is launching its Global Business Program, which is geared towards acknowledging smaller and mid-sized companies, associations and clubs, with special rates and exclusive benefits typically reserved for large-scale organisations.
Membership in the Kimpton Global Business Program is free of hassles, negotiations, contracts and volume caps. As a member of the Program, companies receive exclusive rates at all Kimpton Hotels, starting at 10% off the best available rate, seven days a week.
Additionally, guests enjoy signature Kimpton Hotels' amenities and services, such as complimentary Internet access and a late checkout (subject to availability), all without any membership fees. Rates and amenities are available across the Kimpton brand and will be offered to members at all hotels as Kimpton expands nationwide.
"Kimpton Hotels is the leading boutique hotel brand. Yet even as we continue to grow, we have always partnered with smaller, like-minded, entrepreneurial companies. We understand their structure, their outlook and their business needs, and we know our hotels are what these travelers seek," says MIKE Depatie, CEO Kimpton Hotels.
"Plus, these companies represent a significant percentage of business to the lodging industry as a whole. It is entirely appropriate that Kimpton Hotels be the one to offer the kinds of rates and amenities from which these smaller and mid-sized companies can benefit."
