Eloise is Back, Back, Back at The Plaza Hotel

Guests of The Plaza Hotel Are Invited to Live Like Eloise with New Hotel
Packages

NEW YORK, June 16 /PRNewswire/ -- "The Plaza Hotel has created two new rawther
wonderful packages to celebrate me, ELOISE." This summer, The Plaza welcomes
back its most famous and mischievous guest, Kay Thompson's fictional
character, Eloise, with two special offers: the 'Live Like Eloise' and 'Live
Like Eloise Slumber Party' packages. And since everyone "absolutely looooves"
Eloise, later this year The Plaza will also introduce an Eloise interactive
store and themed suite. "Thank you very much."

The energetic and precocious six-year old originally "moved into" The Plaza in
1955 with pet pug Weenie, turtle Skipperdee and her "mostly companion," Nanny,
when the first edition of Eloise was published by Simon & Schuster. Since that
time, Eloise has "skibbled" her way into the hearts and imagination of
children and adults for more than 50 years. Today, Eloise still watches over
The Plaza from her portrait which is prominently displayed in the legendary
hotel near the new Fifth Avenue entrance.

Guests are invited to live like Eloise, if only for a night, with the
following packages:

-- Live Like Eloise Package
