Ritz recruits Board Games Butlers for Christmas

Its very own Twister and Connect 4 aficionados

Gathering the family for an evening of board games is as essential to Christmas as the Queen’s Speech, plum pudding and brandy butter. During Christmas week (December 21-29), those families staying at The Ritz London may continue the tradition in the comfort of their room. They will be provided with a selection of Hasbro games – Jenga, Connect 4, even Twister – and a dedicated “Board Game Butler”, who will suggest new ways to play – ever considered Jenga with chopsticks? You get the picture. Those that tire of the selection can even ask their butler to hotfoot it to Hamleys on nearby Regent Street to pick up new games to play.

The Board Game Butler will have ideas for putting a new twist on Twister…

“The Ritz is a family-focused hotel, particularly at Christmas,” says Ritz deputy chairman Andrew Love. “We hope that our new Board Game Butler will provide fun for our families and keep those traditions alive.”
