As part of its popular Forgot It? We've Got It! program, Kimpton guests will have complimentary access to seasonal Anthropologie accessories during their stay

ATLANTA, July 20, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- Kimpton Hotels & Restaurants, part of IHG Hotels & Resorts' luxury and lifestyle portfolio, and lifestyle retailer Anthropologie partner to introduce a collection of stylish, seasonal accessories to help alleviate packing stress. The hand-selected items are available for Kimpton guests to borrow on a complimentary basis at participating hotels in the U.S. The collection will be available beginning August 1, with plans to roll out to additional Kimpton hotels later this year.

According to a 2022 survey, 56% of respondents shared they experience stress when trying to replace forgotten items while on a trip, and 62% said their relaxation is impacted when they must replace or retrieve something they forgot. Designed to ease packing anxieties and ensure guests feel their best when traveling, Kimpton's Forgot It? We've Got It! Anthropologie Accessories Collection encourages guests to play with their personal style and put the finishing touch on a look without the worry of mispacking or forgetting an item.

"Kimpton is a brand known for its thoughtful perks and unique personal touches that enhance the guest experience and leave lasting impressions," said Kathleen Reidenbach, SVP of Marketing and Commercial for IHG Luxury & Lifestyle Americas and Kimpton Global. "Knowing accessories are often the first items to get cut or overlooked while packing, this partnership and accessories collection with Anthropologie provides guests with a chic solution in the event they've forgotten that perfect clutch or great pair of sunglasses or want to add a little extra something special to their style or seasonal look – whether it's for a weekend getaway, business meeting, rooftop concert or night out."

At participating hotels, guests will have access to Anthropologie's virtual storefront of the items curated with Kimpton. The first seasonal collection kicks off with a summer edit featuring purses, sunglasses and belts. Those looking for a stylish step-up will borrow one of the accessories from the hotel's front desk and return it at any time during their stay, entirely complimentary. If they fall in love with a piece, guests have the option to purchase directly on Anthropologie.com through the virtual storefront.

"We are thrilled to be the first brand to partner with Kimpton hotels for their Forgot It? We've Got It! program," states Barbra Sainsurin, Executive Director of Brand and Digital Marketing at Anthropologie. "At Anthropologie, we are all about being there for our community wherever they are, and having the ability to reach both new and existing customers at Kimpton's properties across the country is incredibly intriguing. Similar to how we pride ourselves on anticipating our customers' needs season over season, we appreciate Kimpton's proactive approach to supporting their guests, and we can't wait to see how they all engage with our Anthropologie products." 

Kimpton's Forgot It? We've Got It! Anthropologie Accessories Collection will be curated seasonally by Anthropologie's stylists to offer guests new and trending fashion pieces to borrow while staying on property.
