This holiday season, The Plaza Hotel is inviting guests to step into the whimsical world of Kevin McCallister from the beloved film "Home Alone 2: Lost in New York." The iconic Fifth Avenue hotel has unveiled a special "Home Alone: Fun in New York" package, designed to bring the movie's magic to life for fans of all ages.
The experience centers around a four-hour private limousine tour of Manhattan, taking in famous filming locations from the movie. Guests will cruise past landmarks like the Empire State Building, Rockefeller Center, Central Park, Carnegie Hall, and Radio City Music Hall. In a nod to one of the film's most memorable scenes, the ride includes a large, hot cheese pizza to enjoy en route.
Living Like Kevin
After the sightseeing tour, the Kevin McCallister-inspired adventure continues back at the hotel. Guests can retire to their room, which features the kind of "little refrigerators you have to open with a key" and an "extra large bed" reminiscent of the film. To complete the experience, an extravagant ice cream sundae—comprising 16 scoops of ice cream with assorted toppings and sauces—can be delivered directly to the bedside.
What's Included in the Package
The "Home Alone: Fun in New York" package is a curated dive into cinematic nostalgia. Key inclusions are:
- A four-hour private limousine ride visiting key "Home Alone 2" filming sites.
- A large cheese pizza during the limousine tour.
- A decadent ice cream sundae with 16 scoops, toppings, and sauces.
It is important to note that the limousine tour is not guided, and the vehicle's color may vary.
