A Grandparents Getaway to New York City
(ARA) – More and more grandparents are taking to the road with their grandchildren, representing one of the travel industry’s fastest growing trends: grandtravel. According to a 2003 survey by YPB&R, a travel marketing firm, about one in three grandparents has partaken in grandtravel, defined as grandparents vacationing with their grandchildren but without the parents.
Grandtravel allows grandparents quality time to create memorable experiences with their grandkids. In response to this trend, Affinia Hospitality helps to bring families together with the culture, entertainment, and diversity of New York City. Combining spacious suite accommodations -- perfect for traveling with children -- and affordable prices, a fun and value-filled weekend in the Big Apple is guaranteed.
Available at Affinia’s Beekman Tower Hotel and Shelburne Murray Hill, the “Grandparents Getaway” includes a “Grandkid Tin” upon check-in filled with a disposable camera, Mr. Bubble bath bubbles, microwave popcorn, discounts to the Museum of Television and Radio, and the American Museum of Natural History and a list of
city-wide, kid-friendly attractions and restaurants. Also included in the package is complimentary use of the hotel’s video library and Hasbro game cart, stocked with favorites such as Monopoly, Scrabble, and Connect Four, and use of Frommer’s “NYC with Kids” guide and “The Essential Grandparent: A Guide To Making A Difference.”
“Many grandparents these days are finding rich rewards in spending time on their own with their grandchildren, from the little joys of playing board games to more cultural experiences like travel,” says Dr. Lillian Carson, psychotherapist and author of “The Essential Grandparent: A Guide To Making A Difference.”
The “Grandparents Getaway,” (also available for parents traveling with children), is valid weekends through August 2004 with rates starting at $188 per room, per night. Rates are subject to availability and taxes are not included. Reservations can be made by calling (866) AFFINIA or visiting www.affinia.com.
