Going home for Christmas? For many Angelenos that means a trek back east, and probably New York where so many of us come from.
While it's lovely in Los Angeles during the holidays, there's no place like New York with the neon lights amped up by the giant Christmas trees in Rockefeller Plaza, ice skaters and a stellar package at the Palace Hotel--just a thought, but maybe you'd like to stay in a hotel rather than with the relatives. No brainer, right?
Well this deal's great for those of you with lots of Christmas spirit. It comes with palace guards, a snowflake princess, 30-foot Christmas tree, giant gingergread house, themed brunch and a 25% discount.
Valid from November 25 to December 24, the midtown luxury hotel is offering a winter wonderfland fantasty padckage on Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays where guests are greeted bytwo statuesque Palace Guards who show them the oversized Christmas tree, pose for photos and answer questions about the hotel's holiday offerings. A Snowflake Princess then appears will at windows overlooking the Courtyard to the delight of children, offering special snowflake cookies at the weekend Holiday Fantasy Brunch.
Costumes for the Palace Guards and Snowflake Princess, The New York Palace were designed by Claudine DeSola, Creator of Caravan and Stylist Studio . Designer Danny Roberts, of Igor and Andre , designed the costumes for the Palace Guards and Lisa Puccio designed the costume for the Snowflake Princess. Claudine DeSola then took these designs and brought the holiday costumes to life.
