A quiet phrase, whispered at check-in, unlocks a world of unexpected delights at Kimpton hotels worldwide. For those in the know, simply saying “The Life of a Kimpton Guest” can transform an ordinary stay into something truly special, now through February 28, 2026.
The rewards aren’t uniform; each Kimpton property curates a unique surprise, deeply connected to its local destination. Imagine discovering a cozy pair of Pendleton Woolen Mills socks at a Portland hotel, or savoring hot chocolate with artisan spirits in Santa Barbara.
Past experiences have included a playful “winter wheel” at a Florida spa, offering chances to win resort credits or in-room entertainment. The element of surprise is central – Kimpton aims to make every guest feel individually welcomed and catered to.
Loyalty is also rewarded. IHG One Rewards Platinum Elite and Diamond Elite members have access to an additional perk: “Raid the Bar.” This grants a $10 or $20 credit to enjoy at the hotel bar or even in the comfort of their room.
Kimpton hotels are already known for going above and beyond with signature amenities. Guests can expect nightly social hours, in-room yoga mats, and the incredibly helpful “Forgot It? We’ve Got It!” program, stocked with travel essentials.
This latest offering builds on Kimpton’s reputation for creating memorable experiences. It’s a subtle invitation to embrace the unexpected and discover the unique character of each hotel and its surroundings.
The gifts are thoughtfully chosen to reflect the spirit of each location, enhancing the sense of place and providing a memorable souvenir beyond the typical hotel experience.
