Kenilworth, NJ – May 19, 2015 – The Kenilworth, the only boutique independent hotel in the North New Jersey town of Kenilworth, today announced that it has partnered with Stash Hotel Rewards, the largest point-based loyalty program for independent hotels across the U.S. As a result of this partnership, frequent travelers who appreciate a personalized, local experience can now earn and redeem points at The Kenilworth.

"Even though our offering is extremely unique to the area, it is still challenging to compete with the chain properties nearby," said Sonali Mody, Co-Owner of The Kenilworth. "Stash helps to remove many barriers to competition by providing a higher-level of awareness among frequent travelers through its extensive network of partner hotels."

Located just 15 minutes from Newark Airport and 35 minutes from downtown Manhattan, The Kenilworth is a popular choice for both business and leisure travelers. The convenient location coupled with a peaceful, inviting atmosphere provides guests with a sense of ease no matter the reason for their visit. Featuring 109 guest-rooms fully equipped with all of the amenities one needs for a relaxing and productive stay, an on-site bar serving dinner nightly, and complementary continental breakfast in the morning, guests of The Kenilworth will feel right at home.

"The Kenilworth hits that sweet spot between contemporary and cozy, and they treat guests so well that people choose to stay here and commute into Manhattan," said Jeff Low, Founder and CEO of Stash Hotel Rewards. "You come home to a stylish room, an inviting reception space, and an authentically warm welcome."

Guests of The Kenilworth can join Stash for free at www.stashrewards.com. Stash members earn five points for each dollar spent on eligible room rates and can redeem them at one-of-a-kind independent hotels across the U.S. Stash points never expire, and redemption is simple, without blackout dates or category restrictions found in many chain programs. Stash partner hotels also provide members with exclusive travel deals.
