Boutique hotel creates exclusive package geared toward those traveling solo

ATLANTA – According to TripAdvisor, 17 percent of travelers will try a solo trip this year. Recognizing this growing trend, The Ellis Hotel, downtown Atlanta’s only independent boutique hotel, has debuted a special package with “tickets for one” to the city’s top attractions. The Ellis Hotel’s Authentically Atlanta Package provides single tickets to the World of Coca-Cola, Georgia Aquarium and more (all within walking distance of its front doors).

Out of all its guests traveling solo, The Ellis has identified three emerging groups:

Women – Visa’s 2015 Global Travel Intention Study Infographic shows 1 in 5 females have traveled solo. With some solo women travelers seeking out privacy and comfortable environments designed for them, The Ellis Hotel offers private-access accommodations on its revitalized Women’s Only Floor.

As soon as guests on the Women’s Only Floor step off of the elevator, they are greeted by a fresh floral scent, silk flowers and gorgeous women-centric art provided by the Chelko Foundation. Each guest receives a L’Occitane gift bag of luxurious toiletries, 7-inch nail file and a nice-sized cosmetic bag. Each room is stocked with essentials like slippers, plush robes, mineral bath gel, blow dryers, curling irons, flat irons and more.

Millennials – Topdeck Travel surveyed 31,000 millennials and found that 30 percent had traveled solo. Millennials live in a tech-enhanced world where much of their time is spent online, communicating through text messaging and social media. The Travel Institute says it is no surprise that this generation is comfortable traveling solo.

Millennials are also more likely to mix business with play – taking their solo business trip and adding in some fun – also known as ‘bleisure’ traveling. According to a BridgeStreet survey, the second largest group of bleisure travelers is 25- to 35 year olds.

Baby Boomers – Don’t doubt the Baby Boomers, those aged 52 to 70; they too are embracing the solo travel trend. According to Trekk Soft, 44 percent of solo travelers are 55 years old or older. A Huffington Post article also explains that travel is the most highly-rated leisure activity for boomers.

“Whether ‘boomers’ are single or divorced, or simply need time away from the mundane, traveling alone can offer time to refresh, reflect and rejuvenate,” says Tom LaVaccare, sales and marketing manager – The Ellis Hotel.

For solo travelers of all ages looking for a rejuvenating night or two away, The Ellis Hotel’s Wellness Room is designed to help guests relax so they are energized during and after their travels. The room features $5,000 worth of wellness products that purify the air you breathe, water your drink, light you see, and magnetics to help you rejuvenate.

“As more people are opting to traveling solo, we hope they’ll let us surprise and delight them with our ‘tickets for one’ package and the pleasure of enjoying one of our luxurious and comfortable rooms all to themselves,” added LaVaccare.

For more information and booking, visit The Ellis Hotel’s website or call (877) 211-2545.

Boutique hotel recommends planners find retreat locations that combine convenience, comfort, privacy and fun

ATLANTA – The Ellis Hotel, the only remaining independent boutique hotel in downtown Atlanta, serves as the location of choice for many executive retreats for large and small teams. Its chic and stylish accommodations, intimate atmosphere, comfortable meeting spaces and close proximity to Atlanta’s most popular attractions offer “retreaters” a more chic alternative to the boardroom, conference room or isolated and cold chain hotels.

Minimize Travel Time for Retreat Attendees

With companies looking to focus retreat time on team building and brainstorming, The Ellis Hotel recommends planners pick locations where intimate meeting spaces are available inside the hotel (along with quality at-location restaurants) so attendees don’t have to waste time getting to and from various locations.  With one meeting room that can accommodate up to 40 people and a second meeting room that can accommodate 12 people, The Ellis Hotel offers private spaces with floor-to-ceiling windows and blackout drapes. Retreat attendees can also enjoy farm-to-table cuisine straight from its Terrace Bistro’s chefs. 

Located in the heart of downtown next to MARTA and the Atlanta Streetcar, The Ellis Hotel is easily accessible for all guests, allowing stress-free arrival for all “retreaters,” whether they’re arriving from across the country or across town.

Ensure Retreat Attendees are Relaxed and Entertained to Maximize Productivity During Sessions

Teams attending multi-day sessions can take advantage of The Ellis Hotel’s luxury boutique accommodations for restful sleep, while enjoying fun group outings to Atlanta’s most popular attractions and restaurants – most of which are within walking distance of The Ellis.

The Ellis Hotel features two unique and beautiful event spaces that recently underwent a $700,000 renovation, and were honored with ConventionSouth's Prestigious Top New or Renovated Meeting Site Award for 2014 and named the #2 Hotel in downtown Atlanta in 2014 and 2015 by the U.S. News.

“Our meeting spaces are the perfect backdrop for executive retreats for those teams looking to get away from the typical and unexciting locations,” said Kim Kleisner, general manager - The Ellis Hotel. “For those looking to host retreats at venues where chic and stylish accommodations, private meeting rooms, top-notch food and close proximity to entertainment are all combined, our hotel might just be right for you.”

Hosting an executive retreat or year-end meeting offers many benefits to both large and small teams, from gaining new and valuable perspectives to building stronger communication amongst team members.

“I need a vacation from my vacation.” Sound familiar? Traveling can lead to indulging in large meals, taking a break from an exercise routine, throwing off a sleep schedule and stressing about fitting everything in on an itinerary. There are ways to stay healthy while enjoying the perks of vacation.

The Ellis Hotel, known for its chic and stylish accommodations and being the only independent boutique hotel in downtown Atlanta, also has a Wellness Room designed to help guests rejuvenate and relax so they are energized after travel.  Wellness Expert, Sherri Danzig, who designed the Wellness Room with seven elements of wellness inside the room, shares this advice for travelers:

The Top 5 ‘Dos and Don’ts’ for Staying Healthy on Vacation.

Don’t Stress – Planning a trip can be stressful when trying to fit too many activities into your itinerary. Choose a destination that is conveniently located near the top attractions you’re interested in visiting. The Ellis Hotel is a quick, $3 MARTA ride from Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport and crowd favorites Georgia Aquarium, World of Coca-Cola, Centennial Olympic Park and more are within walking distance from the hotel’s front doors.  Less stress equals more fun.

Do Get Enough Sleep – Vacation can lead to late nights and early morning as vacationers try to check off everything on their “Places to Go and See” list. Don’t forget to slow down and enjoy hotel accommodations like big, comfy beds. Each of the 127 luxuriously appointed room and suite accommodations at The Ellis Hotel blends historic elegance with contemporary comfort. Book a room on the hotel’s exclusive Fresh Air Floor with rooms engineered to maximize sleep and minimize irritants.

Do Stay Active – A workout routine may be thrown off while on vacation, but that doesn’t mean you can’t stay active while traveling. Relay Bike Share is an easy way for travelers to rent a bike from one of 10 stations throughout Atlanta. Biking is a quick, fun and affordable way to see the sights, and the Woodruff Park bike station is less than two blocks away from The Ellis Hotel. Also, the hotel has a fitness center on property and is complimentary to use.

Don’t Throw the Diet Out the Window – Many travelers tend to indulge in hearty meals and beverages while on vacation. Try to eat at least one healthy meal a day while traveling. Guests can enjoy market fresh, farm-to-table cuisine for breakfast, lunch and dinner at The Ellis Hotel’s Terrace Bistro. Treat your palate to casual, organic dining specializing in American Southern Bistro-Style entrees.

Do Take Time for Yourself – The Ellis Hotel doesn’t slack on the pampering of guests. Book the hotel’s brand new Wellness Room. With seven state-of-the-art wellness products, guests have everything needed for rest, relaxation and rejuvenation. Guests can enjoy almost $5,000 worth of wellness products by reserving the exclusive Wellness Room.

“I can’t stress the importance of staying healthy during time away from home enough,” said Sherri Danzig, The Ellis Hotel’s Wellness Expert. “The Ellis Hotel’s exclusive Wellness Room, luxurious accommodations for relaxation, and close proximity and walkability to downtown Atlanta hotspots, help its guests stay relaxed, but active during their stay.”

Women – young, old, married, single - are fueling an explosive demand for “women only” services and accommodations. And The Ellis Hotel, the only independent boutique hotel in downtown Atlanta, is meeting that demand by offering an exclusive floor and amenities for female travelers.

The Ellis Hotel’s guests can enjoy private-access accommodations on its revitalized Women’s Only Floor. Each guest receives a L’Occitane gift bag of luxurious toiletries, and each room is stocked with essentials like slippers, plush robes, mineral bath gel, blow dryers, curling irons and more.  Women are pampered from arrival to departure in a private and luxurious environment. For more information on The Ellis Hotel’s Women’s Only Floor, click here.

Hotels aren’t the only businesses creating exclusive experiences for women. Other service providers across the U.S. are keeping the interests of women top of mind, including:

Car services: Recently, several business-savvy individuals in various states have created car services designed for female passengers only, meeting the demand from women for same-sex drivers. Chariot for Women launched in Boston in April, and She Taxis are cruising the streets of NYC to bring piece of mind to women commuters.

Fitness centers: Fitness and health centers worldwide such as POWERLADY Fitness and Lady of America Fitness Clubs, are launching women-only programs – some offering entire facilities – to help women feel more confident and comfortable working out. Many “women-only” gyms house equipment specially designed for a woman’s physique, creating a safer and more comfortable environment.

ATLANTA (November 18, 2015) – Known for a commitment to the health and well-being of people and the environment, The Ellis Hotel is proud to be a part of Clean the World’s global initiative to give hygiene products to those who lack access to these necessities. The Ellis Hotel has donated 50 pounds of soap and bath amenities to the program since joining in October 2014.  

What was once destined for a landfill is now in the hands of impoverished men, women and children throughout the world, helping them live healthier lives.

The Ellis Hotel proudly features Gilchrist & Soames bath amenities, and was introduced to Clean the World by the company as well.  

"We have been partners with Clean the World for over five years now and love being able to contribute to such a worthwhile cause," said Ian Koehler, director of key accounts at Gilchrist & Soames. 

“Clean the World helps prevent millions of hygiene-related deaths worldwide each year, and The Ellis Hotel is grateful for and inspired by the work they do,” remarked Kim Kleisner, general manager of The Ellis Hotel. “As one of the greenest hotels in the nation, it was difficult for us to see so many barely used bath products get tossed in the garbage. Now our discarded amenities all get recycled and make a difference for those in need.” 

Since 2009, Clean the World has distributed more than 1 million hygiene kits in the United States, Canada and Asia, while diverting 3,600 metric tons of waste from landfills. 

In addition to recycling with Clean the World, The Ellis Hotel recently became the only the fourth hotel in the state of Georgia to earn the prestigious Green Seal Silver certification for sustainable practices.

Atlanta-based consultant uses her expertise to develop one-of-a-kind wellness experience in the heart of downtown Atlanta at The Ellis Hotel

ATLANTA (September 25, 2015) – One thing Sherri Danzig knows is how to help others feel their best. With a 25-year career in health and wellness, Sherri has become the go-to expert for people and businesses looking to transform regular living spaces into ones that help alleviate pain, eliminate fatigue and create tranquility so that you can be the best you.

Now an independent wellness consultant with Nikken, Sherri was selected by The Ellis Hotel to create a first-of-its-kind “Wellness Room.”  Now guests at downtown Atlanta’s only independent boutique hotel can enjoy a reinvigorating stay and unparalleled in-room wellness experience.

“With a few upgrades, it’s possible to turn any living space into your own ‘Wellness Room’ oasis that not only helps you relax, but actually helps you focus and re-energize,” says Danzig. “Even my college-aged kids have their own ‘wellness rooms’ away at school that I designed to help them sleep and focus better, and feel rejuvenated every day before going to class.”

For individuals looking to add easy wellness upgrades to their homes, just like the ones Sherri has used to design The Ellis Hotels’ “Wellness Room,” she offers these tips:

• Use magnets. Magnets absorb natural energy and improve circulation, and can be used in a variety of ways in the home. In The Ellis Hotel’s Wellness Room, Danzig incorporated magnets in the mattress topper and the comforter to give guests a deep, restorative sleep in an ionized field between the two all night long. Magnets are also found in the room’s desk chair seat to support and comfort guests while they work.
• Purify air and water. There are few things more essential for a healthful life than clean air and water. Indoor air can sometimes be more toxic than the air outside, so Danzig recommends a purifier that can create a clean indoor breathing environment like those found in research labs. A water purifier that ionizes, alkalinizes and mineralizes water can balance the body’s need for hydration and pH correction. Guests get to experience both in The Ellis Hotel’s Wellness Room.
• Rethink bathing. Danzig says that most people think of bathing as just getting clean, but for better health, it should go beyond that. Advanced shower systems, like the one found inside the Wellness Room, can hydrate the body while providing a deep clean that removes impurities while revitalizing skin cells and hair follicles.
• Revamp lighting. Traditional indoor lighting can be bad for everything from eyesight to mental health, so Danzig recommends a full spectrum lamp that simulates natural sunlight without harmful UV and is relaxing to the eyes. In The Ellis Hotel’s Wellness Room, the full spectrum lamp can be set to mimic rising sunlight and gradually awaken guests while promoting a natural sleep/wake cycle.

For The Ellis Hotel’s one-of-a-kind Wellness Room, Sherri handpicked the nearly $5,000 of state-of-the-art wellness products, which range from a sleep system to state-of-the-art air and water purifiers to a shower system to full spectrum lighting. 

“From sitting to sleeping to showering, the products used in The Ellis Hotel’s Wellness Room deliver therapeutic benefits that help guests feel more energized, present and well-rested,” says Danzig.

“As the only hotel in Atlanta to offer an enhanced guest room dedicated to wellness, we invite all visitors to our city and locals who want to pamper themselves with healthier living and the most restful night’s sleep to experience our new Wellness Room,” says Kim Kleisner, general manager of The Ellis Hotel.

In addition to The Wellness Room, The Ellis Hotel also caters to health-conscious individuals with the Fresh Air Floor, an allergen- and irritant-free paradise perfect for Atlanta visitors who suffer from asthma or allergies, or those that want to enjoy a purified air environment.
