Omni Hotels is getting in on the Apple iPhone craze by launching a property-wide giveaway of the highly sought-after item as an incentive to get people into its properties.
The hotel chain is transforming its lobbies nationwide today into all things “Apple” offering guests complimentary apples and “apple-licious” drinks. Visitors can register for a chance to win an iPhone, valued at $499, via entry forms in the lobbies.
A secondary sweepstakes, the Omni Apple a Day Sweepstakes at OmniHotels.com/AppleADay, offers another chance to win an iPhone. The winners of both contests will be revealed tonight at 7 p.m. local time.
“This is another way to thank our customers and a means to continue creating memorable experiences for each person who walks through the doors of our hotels,” said Mike Deitemeyer, president of Omni Hotels, in a statement.
In all, thirty-four grand-prize winners will each receive an Apple iPhone. Service plans of the phones will not be included in the prize.
Tonight’s giveaway coincides with Omni Hotels’ Sensational Wednesday program, which shows appreciation to its Select Guest loyalty program members by offering unexpected guest room indulgences and complimentary morning beverage service. Each item appeals to one of the five senses. The program launched in November 2006.
