51 BUCKINGHAM GATE, TAJ SUITES AND RESIDENCES ANNOUNCES AN EXCLUSIVE PARTNERSHIP WITH HARRODS

11-18-2009

 


Launching with London's ultimate shopping experience



LONDON (November 18, 2009) - Boasting a synonymous reputation for offering flawless service with a quintessentially London experience, Harrods and 51 Buckingham Gate have launched a chic shopping package, tailored towards fashionistas seeking retail therapy in the run-up to Christmas.

Located in a secluded courtyard garden in the heart of Westminster, 51 is one of the capital's best kept secrets, offering a true 'home away from home' experience. On arrival, allow the concierge to watch over your suitcases while registering for your personalized Harrods Rewards card, where you will be able to earn points for every pound you spend in-store. Paperwork completed, proceed to your designated Junior Suite where you can begin planning how you wish to spend your £100 gift in-store (minimum spend £250).

Lipstick applied and credit cards in hand, your chauffeur driven Jaguar will be ready and waiting to drive you a short way across town to the prestigious Harrods department store where your shopping experience will truly commence.

With seven floors of shopping paradise to explore, seek this season's inside track by redeeming your invitation to the Harrods' personal shopping service. Another essential for the agenda is a trip to the renowned Food Hall, where you can enjoy an exclusive 10% discount off your gourmet purchases with your new Rewards card, making it the ideal destination for stocking filler treats.

Credit cards severely dented and feet in need of a well-earned rest, fear not as your chauffeur re-emerges outside to assist with your carrier bags and ensure a smooth journey back to 51 where you can soothe aching muscles in The Spa's sauna and steam rooms.

Fully refreshed and eager to give your purchases their first whirl, throw on your heels and totter down to The Library where cocktail and canapés await. With taste buds tantalized, continue to one of three restaurants on your doorstep, including the Michelin starred Quilon, serving some of the finest Indian cuisine in town.

The Harrods at 51 package is available from £550 per night based on double occupancy and includes:

  • Three nights accommodations in a Junior Suite
  • Full English or Continental breakfast daily
  • Use of 51's sauna, steam rooms and gym facilities

  • A chauffeur driven Jaguar to and from Harrods
  • Automatic enrollment with personalized card to the Harrods Rewards program
  • 10% discount in Harrods Food Halls on your first visit using the Rewards card
  • £100 gift card (when spending over £250 in-store) using your Rewards card
