Before your couple travel turns into family travel, embark on a relaxing babymoon at Hotel Lilien. Inspired by the uptick in babymoon bookings, this boutique hotel set in a restored 1890s estate just two hours from New York City launched a new complimentary amenities package catering to pregnant guests.

 

While creating this package, Elizabeth Narins, director of Content and Communications, Hotel Lilien, and mother of two, thought of the hotel amenities she would have enjoyed when she was a pregnant traveler. One of her biggest takeaways was not being able to sleep comfortably, so she wanted guests to have the option to use a pregnancy pillow during their stay without having to bring it from home.

The babymoon package also offers little luxuries such as a Hatch Collection Belly Mask; nourishing snacks for the middle of the night; and, the best part, a rotating collection of goodies to take home from trusted brands such as Aden + Anais and Halo. Expecting mothers can book the babymoon package starting Dec. 1, when using booking code UPSTATEBABYMOON.

 

“As a boutique property founded by parents, we’ve always paid close attention to the needs of pregnant guests,” said Narins. “Over the last year, we’ve hosted so many babymooners that we wanted to make these guests feel seen, celebrated, and extra comfortable.”
