To beat the summer heat and woes
By Travel Editor Lee Sam-sun
The hospitality industry in Korea, as in the case of many other countries of the world, has somewhat had a hard time during the two-year-long period of COVID-19 pandemic.
Now, the figures of new cases of the pandemic have come down substantially and the tourist industry in Korea has seemingly started regaining its activity.
One of the outstanding examples is the Four Seasons Hotel Seoul. Public Director Inyoung Moon at the Hotel has provided The Korea Post with the following news:
In the summer season when people get tired and lethargic easily due to hot weather, children who love outdoor activities, as well as parents who must accompany them, are struggling with the high temperature, the scorching sun, and a lot of luggage to pack for their children.
Especially, for parents who struggle to create unforgettable memories to their children this summer, Four Seasons Hotel Seoul has created this exclusive room package, "Kids for All Seasons with Summer Fun."
For a more special experience, this summer package, "Kids for All Seasons with Summer Fun", collaborated with the naturalistic brand of play education brand, "Think Go Bingo." It will be a valuable time for children to think and discover freely with Grapat which is a European handicraft wooden toy.
The first thing to note is the Kids Lounge, which has been refurbished into a space that provides various play learning experiences. It can satisfy children's curiosity by filling it with a discovery-learning-oriented toy. Children can play balance games using European wobble boards with their parents or do role-play using silk costumes and games. Or listen to the story of ‘The Sun and Wind’ with the sound pen of Jangone Education. Additionally, various games using handcrafted toys and wooden blocks made of natural rubber and eco-friendly materials are also available.
Until 12 September, the Kids Lounge, located on the 10th floor of the hotel, is open from 10 am to 6 pm every day. And both customers using this package and other families staying in the hotel with children receive free access to the Kids Lounge. If you want to participate in paid activities in the Kids Lounge, reservations are required in advance and an additional fee is charged.
A special gift - consisting of 16 sets of harmless tattoo stickers from Europe for kids and a 100% organic muslin cotton blanket that can be used for many purposes in summer - is also noteworthy.
The special package includes:
One-night stay with complimentary breakfast for two adults and children not yet enrolled in school
Stress-free check-in for families with complimentary valet parking
Access to our Kids for All Seasons Lounge decorated in collaboration with ‘Think Go Bingo’ (fees apply for activities)
Special gifts worth KRW 65,000 including an organic cotton blanket and tattoo stickers
Installation of fun in-room kid’s play tent
Various complimentary kids’ amenities such as hair and body wash, diaper boxes, cream soap, and kid-sized bathrobes and slippers, as well as use of items such as cribs, baby bathtubs, and more.
Other than that, benefits such as free access to fitness clubs, golf experience, and indoor swimming pools are basically provided. Package prices for a one-night stay in a Premier Room start at KRW 530,000 (excluding VAT) and are available to book from 11 June to 12 September.
“As summer vacation is upcoming, we wanted to create a room package for kids where they can swim, eat delicious food, play as much as they want, and experience eco-friendly games that stimulate imagination and five senses.” says a Four Seasons Hotel Seoul official who planned this package. “Through this summer package, we hope that not only children but also parents preparing for vacation experience a satisfactory summer vacation.”
