Kevin’s Plaza Hotel Stay Just Got a Major Price Hike
If you thought Kevin McCallister’s solo adventure in Home Alone 2 was extravagant back in 1992, wait until you see what it would cost today. Spoiler: It’s not pocket change.
The Original Bill vs. 2025 Prices
When the movie came out, Kevin’s one-night stay at The Plaza Hotel ran $1,100. Add in his epic room service feast and a three-scoop sundae, and the total was $2,109.
Fast forward to 2025, and that same experience would set you back $8,511. Here’s the breakdown:
- Plaza Hotel suite: $6,244 (up 467.6%)
- Room service feast: $2,233.89 (up 130.9%)
- Three-scoop sundae: $24 (up 33.3%)
And if you want the official “Home Alone Sundae” now? That’s an extra $350.
Why So Expensive?
Luxury hotels have seen massive price hikes over the last three decades, and The Plaza is no exception. Some suites now cost as much as $33,000 a night.
