At Courtyard, Tots Travel Too

Any parent will tell you that traveling with young children can be difficult.  That’s why we’re trying to alleviate some of that stress with the launch of a new program this week called Tots Travel Too™.  This program is now in place at 2,500 of our hotels including all Courtyards in the U.S. and Canada, as well as our Residence Inn, Fairfield Inn & Suites, TownePlace Suites and SpringHill Suites brands in those two countries.

The complimentary Tots Travel Too program provides guests, upon request, with a travel crib and laundered COVERPLAY® removable crib slipcover, designed exclusively for our brands, to ensure their “traveler-in-training” can rest comfortably. For some bath time fun, an animal squirty toy comes with the COVERPLAY.  In addition, for parents who may have forgotten to pack their tot’s essentials the front desk will be stocked with complimentary items, including outlet covers, nightlights, baby shampoo, and baby lotion, plus disposable bibs will be available in The Bistro or breakfast areas.

The next time you travel with little ones, Courtyard has you covered!
