SAN FRANCISCO, Calif., March, 2011 - Now through Mother's Day, May 8, Kimpton's LGBT employee committee (KPRIDE) and PFLAG National (Parents, Families and Friends of Lesbians and Gays) will celebrate the special relationship the LGBT community has with our Moms.

With Kimpton's first ever Queen for A Day (And We Mean Your Mom) promotion, Kimpton is encouraging travelers to treat their mothers like the queens they really are with special stays, meals and lots of pampering. For instance:

Anyone can take their mom (or any cherished loved ones) on a weekend getaway to any of 24 Kimpton cities to be rewarded with 10 percent off the Best Available Rate. For every night booked, PFLAG National will receive a $10 donation. Guests can visit www.kimptonhotels.com/lgbt to book using rate code LAG to give moms the royal treatment with an in-room spa treatment, breakfast in bed or a night out on the town.

Diners can spend Mother's Day at any one of more than 50 Kimpton restaurants for delicious rewards. Guests that save their brunch or dinner receipts can send it to Kimpton's KPRIDE committee and receive a $25 gift certificate for a future visit to any Kimpton Restaurant.

Kimpton wants to thank all special mothers for the care, understanding and support they have given the LGBT community over the years. It is this kind of support and love that is one of the main inspirations for the warm and welcoming way Kimpton treats all of its guests.
