Christmas Fun at the Grand Californian Hotel

Disney goes all out for Christmas and the Resort Hotels are no exception.

The other night my wife and I went over to the Grand Californian Hotel after an event she attended at the Convention center across the street.   The second you step inside the Grand Californian –you are in awe of the lobby on a normal day…During Christmas Time that sense of awe is double.   The enormous Christmas tree sits in the middle of the giant lobby.   

Santa Claus takes residence to one side of the tree as a piano player plays Disney and Christmas tunes.  People sit near the giant fireplace sipping cocktails from the Hearth Lounge or during the Holidays from the Christmas drink trolley which features many Holiday Treats   

This year the hotel features a Giant Gingerbread House….














 



The Gingerbread house served as the backdrop for a delightful musical group The Beverly Belles –which performed some holiday songs with a cool retro flare.

We grabbed dinner at the Hearth Lounge and hung out in the Lobby for awhile just soaking in the Christmas environment.    I perfect little Holiday evening without even having to venture into the parks.   I only wish we were staying here for the night –so I could have a second Hot Chocolate with Rum
