Vibrant Suites Designed with the Help of Children Provide Comfort and
Entertainment for Families
To spoil its youngest guests, the
Omni Hotels' Texas Collection is kicking off summer with the introduction
of Kids' Sensory Suites. These vibrant guestrooms are designed to provide
the comforts of home and stimulate the senses of young travelers, featuring
twin beds with colorful bedding, beanbag chairs, an art table, board games,
books cozy bath robes, aquatic-themed bath accessories and a complimentary
Kids' Sensation Bar filled with toys, trinkets and snacks.
For special counsel on this out-of-the-ordinary project, Omni Hotels
assembled an informal advisory board of 10-year-old children. Together, the
children shopped to find the right room accessories and Kids' Sensation Bar
items to ensure the guestrooms' appeal to kids. From the fish-shaped bath
mats to board games, each item in the suite was selected with one ultimate
goal in mind -- pure fun!
"We know children can bore easily when traveling. Travel for kids
should be filled with anticipation," said Jim Snow, regional vice president
for Omni Hotels. "The Kids' Sensory Suites are a great way for parents and
kids to unwind when they arrive at an Omni; they provide unique
entertainment many families are not used to finding at a luxury hotel."
The Omni Austin Hotel at Southpark, Omni Corpus Christi Hotel, Omni
Houston Hotel near the Galleria, Omni Mandalay Hotel at Las Colinas in the
Dallas area and the Omni San Antonio Hotel at the Colonnade will offer
traveling families the luxury guestroom 'fit for a kid' beginning in June,
2007.
Kids' Fantasy Suites debuted at the Omni California properties in San
Diego, Los Angeles and San Francisco in May 2005. The response from
children and their parents has been overwhelmingly positive, leading to the
additions in Texas.
The Texas Collection Kids' Sensory Suites are available on an ongoing
basis. Prices range from $249 to $339 per night. The rates do not include
taxes and are subject to availability. Guests can reserve the Kids' Sensory
Suite by calling 1-800-THE-OMNI.
Recently named one of the top 10 "best hotels for families" by Child
magazine, Omni Hotels also offers Omni Sensational Kids, its new kids
program, which includes special children's menus, milk and cookies each
night at turndown and a complimentary gift bag filled with fun, indulgent
sensory items. Upon arrival at the front desk, Omni Sensational Kids will

oversized jacks, a scented bracelet and a colorful plastic cup. Visit
