Long before social media turned destinations into bucket-list experiences, Home Alone 2: Lost in New York introduced millions of viewers to The Plaza. From Kevin McCallister’s unforgettable arrival beneath the hotel’s gilded ceilings to the famous phone number he recited from memory, 212-759-3000, The Plaza became an enduring part of holiday movie history. Remarkably, 212-759-3000 remains the hotel’s telephone number today, offering a real-life connection to one of the film’s most iconic moments. More than three decades later, families can still step into that beloved story and experience the magic for themselves at the very hotel where it all unfolded.
The holidays in New York have a way of feeling larger than life. The glow of Fifth Avenue after dark. The excitement of skating beneath the Rockefeller Center Christmas Tree. The anticipation of arriving at one of the city’s most iconic addresses, beautifully decorated for the season and buzzing with holiday cheer.
Through the Home Alone: Fun in New York package, guests can experience the city much like Kevin did, with a private limousine ride to iconic filming locations across Manhattan, a classic New York cheese pizza, and an extravagant ice cream sundae delivered directly to their room. It’s a chance to experience New York with the same sense of wonder and adventure that made Home Alone 2 a holiday classic.
While the package follows in Kevin McCallister’s footsteps, the magic of the season extends far beyond the film. From sparkling Fifth Avenue displays to timeless New York holiday traditions, there’s no shortage of festive experiences waiting to be discovered.
While Home Alone 2 may provide the inspiration, the real magic begins when you step beyond the screen. From Holiday Tea beneath the iconic stained-glass dome of The Palm Court to Readings with Santa and other festive experiences, the season is filled with moments designed to bring families together and create memories that last long after the decorations come down.
Outside, New York sparkles with seasonal cheer. Inside, festive décor, timeless elegance, and cherished traditions create the kind of wonder families return to year after year.
The magic doesn’t have to end at checkout.

The Plaza Boutique’s exclusive Plaza Sundae Bowl offers a playful tribute to one of the hotel’s most memorable movie moments, perfect for recreating holiday movie nights at home and bringing a little movie magic to family traditions.
Equally iconic are the Turtle Doves, inspired by one of the film’s most heartfelt scenes. Beautifully presented in a gold box, the keepsake ornaments serve as a timeless reminder that friendship, family, and connection are the true gifts of the holiday season. Whether shared with a loved one or displayed on the tree year after year, they embody the spirit of a holiday classic.
Some holiday traditions are watched every year. Others are lived.
This season, create memories straight out of Home Alone 2 and discover why New York during the holidays continues to captivate families from around the world. Whether it’s exploring Manhattan by limousine, indulging in a legendary ice cream sundae, or experiencing the enchantment of the season from one of Fifth Avenue’s most celebrated addresses, this is the kind of family getaway that becomes a treasured tradition for years to come.
