With the Mini Hotelier Program, each child “checks in” with ette’s signature stuffed giraffe before an exclusive guided tour of the hotel’s one-of-a-kind Laundry Museum, followed by a towel-folding activity led by staff. Kids don their very own embroidered Mini Hotelier apron before heading to Salt & The Cellar bar to create a mocktail. Each child receives a certificate of completion as a keepsake of their day. The hands-on experience is designed for children ages 4–12, lasts one hour and can be booked as an add-on experience.

 

An in-room teepee adds a touch of wonder to guestrooms, transforming them into a comforting retreat with plush pillows, twinkling fairy lights and a selection of bedtime books. A plush toy gift and personalized milk and cookies turn-down service complete the experience. Book as an add-on.
