Guests named Kimberly score a gratis robe at The Kimberly Hotel

by McLean Robbins on

If your name were Kimberly, wouldn’t you want to stay a hotel that appreciates the great name you have? The Kimberly Hotel, nestled in the heart of Midtown Manhattan on 50th and 3rd, welcomes all Kimberly’s to by giving them a special gift – a complimentary Frette linen robe to take home.

See, being born in the 80s has its perks! The name is currently the 57th most popular in the United States, according to BabyNameWizard.com, so it seems like quite a few guests will be able to score this promotion.

Just a quick tip – if your name isn’t Kimberly – don’t try to steal the robe. Some hotels have inserted tracking devices in the linens to thwart thievery.

Ask them to personalize your room – Hotel tip

Many hotels will customize your room based on your personal preferences — even going as far as to make sure you have your favorite pillows and robes in your room upon arrival.

If you have a preference for room location (high or low floor), proximity to elevator, or pillow type (soft, firm, or down alternative), or would like robes or anything else specific in your room, give the hotel a heads-up when booking your room.

As long as they’re not super busy, you’ll find most properties to be very accommodating to your requests.
