To date, kids in need have missed over one billion school meals due to closures. We’re doing what we can to help by donating $20,000 to @NoKidHungry, our longtime partner who has quickly found new ways to feed kids during this crisis and beyond.
We’ve been overwhelmed by the outpouring of love from the IHG family of hotels around the world, who’ve lit up their windows with messages of support. We hope you’ll join the movement. Create your own window heart and tag #LightsofLove and #IHG. We can’t wait to welcome you again, but in the meantime, let’s encourage and stand behind one another. ❤️
We’re human. We’re germ carriers, we’re huggers, we’re rule breakers (no really, stay home!) but we’re also resilient, caring, risers to the occasion. We’re all in this together, and sometimes the greatest growth comes from challenging circumstances like these. Thanks to you for doing your part, too. We’re all finding new ways to live, re-connect and stay grounded.
As part of the hospitality world and the IHG family, we’ve had to think quickly and creatively about the role we play in all of this. We knew we had to find new ways to support our communities – it’s what we do. Some of our doors are closed, but our hearts are open. We may be going about things a little differently right now, but our promise to deliver heartfelt care is stronger than ever. #LightsOfLove #IHG #Kimpton
To our Kimpton community – we’re in this together. Human connection has been at the heart of everything we do since our founding 40 years ago. While our core values haven’t changed, the world around us has, and some of our hotels and restaurants won’t be able to welcome guests for a little while. We’re thinking of you all and sending our love during this time. Travel will thrive again soon and when it does, we look forward to celebrating all of life’s happy occasions with you. So as you dream up your post-COVID 19 adventures, know that we’ll be here to host you. Don’t hesitate to check our availability as you map out a future filled with travel and delight. In the meantime, stay safe – we’ll be over here counting the days until we welcome you back. ❤️

Please join us in saying ‘Hola’ to the stunning @kimptonvividora. Located in the heart of the Ciutat Vella district, it’s only a short walk to Las Ramblas, La Barceloneta Beach, La Boqueria and some of the most legendary culinary spots in Barcelona. The hotel pulls inspiration from the vast community of modern creatives in the Gothic Quarter, along with design details drawn from the historical aesthetics of the old city. With three culinary spaces, in-house artist and music programming, and a roof-top pool overlooking the city… and your credit card is out. Well, you can’t say we didn’t warn you.
