"As we continue to welcome our guests back, couples in particular are looking for something new that sparks the imagination, offers opportunities to connect and make memories together," says Antoine Chahwan, President, Hotel Operations - Americas East. "Our concierge teams are so often asked what's new, where can we truly experience local culture, what can we do here that we can't do anywhere else? We offer a myriad of ideas for the perfect don't-have-to-think-about-it vacation, or as a starting point to creating your own bespoke getaway."
While many of these offers and experiences have a definite romantic side, many can be equally enjoyed by friends reconnecting after too long apart, or perhaps a parent and child wishing to experience a city together.
"Even if you've visited a place many times, even if it's the city you call home, there's always something new," adds Vince Parrotta, President, Hotel Operations - Americas West. "Four Seasons offers the best of each destination – along with many hidden gems - while also providing an urban oasis for those who'd love nothing more than to relax in the spa, or hide away in their room together for the weekend."
A key part of the guest experience is the award-winning Four Seasons App and Chat, offering the option of contactless service and real-time access to Four Seasons services in 100+ languages, all in the palm of one's hand.
All Four Seasons hotels and resorts around the world continue to implement the brand's Lead With Care program in ongoing consultation with leading experts, putting the health and safety of Four Seasons guests and employees first.
