Holiday Inn is Fresh and Fabulous for Family Travel!

Have you stayed at Holiday Inn recently?  If you haven’t visited Holiday Inn in the last year, you are missing out.

Holiday Inn has been busy in 2009 with a huge brand relaunch.  The chain is upgrading and remodeling to fit the needs of busy families.

The hotel chain has seen an increase in families traveling for work and parents bring the kids along. The changes the hotel chain is making are family friendly and fabulous!   The Holiday Inn brand relaunch is the largest in the history of the hospitality industry, with more than 3,300 hotels around the world being updated.

So far, Holiday Inn has relaunched and made changes in over 1,200 hotels.  The revamped hotels include:

Family Suites-Holiday Inn is creating more rooms as family suites.  A family suite has a separate area for the kids to sleep, giving mom and dad an almost private room.  On a recent family trip, our Holiday Inn room had a separate kid sleeping area with a bunk bed and a TV with games on it!

It was heaven. Our girls are 15 and 11, so everyone needs space when we travel but we really can’t afford to get two different hotel rooms. The family suite was  a great solution and the girls loved it. 

Kids Eat Free-This is not a typo. Holiday Inn has a program where kids eat free when a parent buys a meal. We used our Kids Eat Free perk for breakfast everyday and for one dinner.  I had read about the Kids Eat Free promotion but I thought there was a catch. I am here to tell you, NO CATCH, kids really eat free.

Free and Very Fast Wi-Fi-A good Internet connection is often hard to find at a hotel and FREE Wi-Fi connection is golden, if you’re attached to your laptop like I am.

Until recently, we had not stayed in a Holiday Inn for years because I thought the rooms were pretty outdated.  I remember staying at this chain as a child and the rooms were nice.  But over the years, the brand lost it’s shine—but I am here to tell you Holiday Inn is back!

The newly revamped, family friendly modern Holiday Inn is awesome. I loved our hotel because it was very nice and I felt pampered but there were all kinds of conveniences that only a mom could love.

Laundry room with washer and dryer -Most nice hotels don’t have a laundry room. If your kids get their clothes all messy, you have to have the hotel wash them or wash the clothes by hand. Our Holiday Inn had a washer/dryer for every building.

Money doesn’t grow on trees in our household, as we tell our daughters. If your family doesn’t have a money tree in your backyard, I highly recommend checking out the new and improved Holiday Inn. If you want to check on location of one of the revamped hotels, the website has a list that is updated regularly.
