Who says only adults can be V.I.P.s? New Zealand's ultimate family holiday destination has invited guests to treat their kids to an exciting hotel stay these school holidays and let them experience what it's like to be a V.I.P. in Queenstown.
At Holiday Inn Queenstown Remarkables Park, kids have been upgraded to Very Important Kids (V.I.K.) thanks to the hotel's exclusive free kids programme, designed to make young guests feel special and entertained while saving parents money with great discounts at five family-friendly partner attractions.
The new V.I.K. programme at Holiday Inn Queenstown Remarkables Park is free and available all year round. Guests simply collect their free kid's pack and V.I.K. wristband on arrival at check-in and off to explore Queenstown they go, creating lasting family memories at the hotel's partner attractions. The green V.I.K. wristband must be presented at the attraction's reception to unlock discounts.
Action-packed activities including SITETrampoline, Game Over indoor karting, laser tag and arcade, and the kid-friendly Clip 'N' Climb challenges at Basecamp Adventures all include a variety of V.I.K. discounts. These family attractions are open come rain or shine and are an easy five-minute walk from the Holiday Inn, located within Frankton's buzzing Remarkables Park lifestyle precinct.
Queenstown's one-stop venue for adrenaline-fuelled activities, ThrillZone offers virtual reality gaming, escape rooms, paintball, mini golf, simulators, and N.Z.'s only Bazooka Ball arena. With V.I.K., kids get up to 25 percent extra time on most activities at ThrillZone, situated an easy 15-minute drive from Holiday Inn Queenstown Remarkables Park.
For a different kind of buzz, the local BuzzstopHoneyCentre&Café is a must-do for any family outing, located a five-minute drive from the hotel. Guests can enjoy a honey-influenced lunch with amazing views of The Remarkables. A visit to the honeybee farm is an even sweeter experience thanks to the V.I.K. discount of 15 percent off all tours and 10 percent off all café purchases.
Back at the hotel, kids aged 12 years and under stay and eat FREE in Giants Restaurant &Bar every day of the week, including school holidays. Holiday Inn's friendly and attentive team are ready to take orders from the whole family, nourishing hungry tummies and satisfying the most giant of appetites.
After a day of adventure in Queenstown, families can make themselves at home at Holiday Inn Queenstown Remarkables Park and retreat to spacious, cleverly designed double rooms, many with mountain views. Inter-connecting rooms for larger families and baby cots are available on request. Rooms offer all the comforts, including comfy beds, bright bathrooms, coffee machines, smart T.V.s with Chromecast streaming and unlimited WIFI so kids can watch their favourite channels from home.
The hotel's lobby is an inviting, comfortable, and lively gathering place for families to eat, drink, relax, and connect. Parents can relax and relive the highlights of the day with a local Gibbston Valley wine or craft beer by the fireplace, while the kids settle into the evening with a board game in cosy seating areas.
"We put families at the heart of what we do at Holiday Inn and are always looking for new ways we can enhance their experience with us – which is why we designed the Very Important Kids programme to add even more value for our valued family guests," said Mathew Simister, General Manager of Holiday Inn Queenstown Remarkables Park. "With five family-friendly partner attractions, we are proud to offer one of the best hotel discount programmes in Queenstown for families."
