Kimpton's "Secret Password" is Back: Free Perks Await!
Published on November 24, 2025, 9:04 PM
Kimpton Hotels is running its fun "secret password" promotion again! The current password is "No Shade," and you can use it until September 3, 2023. Just whisper this phrase at check-in, and you're entitled to a free perk. It's that easy! What kind of freebie can you expect? It varies by hotel, but past perks have included free breakfast, food and beverage credits (like $30 to spend on food and drinks!), free wine, or drink vouchers. It's a fun little way to add some excitement to your stay. If the front desk gives you a blank stare, just repeat the phrase or ask for a manager. They should know the deal. Why should you care? Well, free stuff is always good, right? If you're planning a Kimpton stay between now and early September, it takes literally zero effort to say "No Shade" and potentially score a nice extra. Think of it as a free appetizer or a couple of cocktails on the house! This simple trick could enhance your hotel experience without spending extra.
