SCOTTSDALE, Ariz., Oct. 13, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- A new cast of
holiday characters are flying in from the North Pole to the
Fairmont Scottsdale Princess, making "Christmas at the Princess"
even more magical, merry and bright. This AAA Five Diamond resort
transforms into a winter wonderland during its annual festival,
November 19, 2015 – January 3, 2016, glistening with a four-story
musical tree, the Desert Ice Rink, Princess Express Train, Lagoon
Lights, three new holiday characters – and of course – jolly ol'
St. Nick.
The resort is introducing Christmas Princess Noel, one of
Santa's shining stars who lights the North Pole and is bringing her
charm to the resort's Enchanted Plaza nightly. Her best friend,
Peppermint Penguin, has so much fun at the resort's real ice
skating rink. Selfie Elfie is one of Santa's more mischievous elves
and loves photo-bombing visitors taking selfies.
At Lagoon Lights, 2.8 million LED lights illuminate majestic
scenes such as graceful swans, a pirate ship, Nessie the Loch Ness
Monster, a candy cane forest, a menorah and dreidel, a Nativity
Garden and an infinity tunnel capable of 256 million color
combinations.
Holiday festivities also include photos with Santa in his
workshop, a petting zoo, the S'mores Land campfire pits and a
wintery music video show shaped to the resort's facade. Dining
experiences range from Michael
Mina's Bourbon Steak to Toro Latin Restaurant & Rum Bar
and La Hacienda by Richard Sandoval.
For pampering, Well & Being Spa offers "Let It Glow" pedicures
and body treatments, where spa-goers can purchase an ornament
benefiting Cox Charities from the Fairmont Tree of Hope.
"Christmas at the Princess" is open to the public. Entrance is
complimentary for hotel guests. Entrance fee/parking for non-hotel
guests is $30 for self-parking. Valet
is $40 or complimentary with a
$75 purchase in any of the resort's
