Nickolodeon Family Suites By Holiday Inn Brings Their "Suite" Experience to the Web
Today's technology trends put everything from shopping and news to travel, entertainment and instant communication only a click away. Now, family fun is no exception. Nickelodeon Family Suites by Holiday Inn, the first-ever Nickelodeon hotel opening in spring 2005, has launched a brand new Web site, www.nickhotel.com, where families can book direct online together.
The new site offers unique interactive opportunities for kids that make planning the family vacation an event everyone can enjoy. From cheering crowds of favorite Nickelodeon characters, to exclusive Nickelodeon downloads, the site has taken the average online booking transaction to the next level, changing it into a Nick-themed, interactive experience.
Starting now, visitors to the site can search suite availability and experience the hotel before they stay through an immersive, Nick-style virtual video tour. Families can also sign up for regular e-mail updates, download screensavers, and send Nick e-cards.
"Studies have shown that today's kids play an important role in family vacation decision-making," said Terry Whaples, president of Nickelodeon Family Suites by Holiday Inn. "We focus on creating the ultimate kid-friendly vacation experience at our resort; we're taking that focus and bringing it to the entire online, family vacation planning process."
The new, interactive Web site offers an easy-to-navigate menu of options for all online visitors to access from the most computer-savvy, to first-time Internet users. Nickhotel.com brings a family-friendly experience for children and adults alike and is compliant with The Children's Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA), which applies to the online collection of personal information from children under 13 years of age.
Nickelodeon Family Suites by Holiday Inn will transform into a world where kids rule and will include the following kid-friendly features: unique 2- and 3-Bedroom Kidsuites that provide a separate Nick-themed bedroom just for the kids; two giant pool courtyards with water park features like wet-dry play areas, water slides and flumes, a court with multi-level basketball hoops, carpet golf, and a sand play area; The Mall, which is the hub of all activity for the hotel, features a food court with nationally branded eateries, The Arcade, a 3,000 square foot room with prizes and a movie and game rental shop; and, daily character breakfasts featuring popular Nicktoon characters such as SpongeBob SquarePants, Dora the Explorer, and the Fairly OddParents.
