Christmas Eve at the hotel feels like a cosy gathering rather than a grand production, with a buffet built around seasonal favourites, fresh seafood and a pasta station that keeps everyone happily occupied. Desserts lean rich and festive, the sort that require no justification in December. Families can wander over to Christmas Movie Night afterwards for Home Alone or Four Christmases, a gentle way to end the evening with laughter and a bit of shared nostalgia. The next day shifts gears with a brunch that wears its Christmas theme proudly. A DJ keeps the room lively for three full hours while guests move between seafood on ice, sushi, roast turkey, lamb, smoked ribs and wagyu brisket. Christmas pudding, eggnog and panettone add a sweet, indulgent finish.
