Top hotels across India are introducing engaging activities, out of the ordinary, on Instagram, as playlists, to engage with their clients and offer them something special and unique even while they are at home.
Virtual Ollie’s Summer Camp
To keep the little ones occupied, world’s largest Leed Platinum certified chain ITC Hotels along with Welcomhotel have started a ‘Virtual Ollie’s summer camp’. It hosts a range of fun activities for kids, which also makes learning fun. ‘Ollie’s Club’ at ITC Hotels and ‘Ollie’s Corner’ at Welcomhotel is a tribute to Oliver Ridley turtles that visit Indian beaches in January and February.
Every day for a week, short edutainment videos on painting, cooking, gardening among others, are uploaded on the brands’ social media handles, which could help children develop new skills while having fun with their family from the safety of their homes.
ITC Grand Goa, ITC Grand Bharat in Gurgaon, ITC Rajputana in Jaipur and ITC Mughal at Agra will soon host the summer camp as an in-hotel activity. The safety and hygiene of the kids will be assured through the ‘WeAssure’ programme designed in collaboration with medical professionals and disinfection experts.
