Christmas at the Dallas Anatole

December 12, 2015 Shannon Schmid 1 Comment

My absolute FAVORITE thing we’ve done this Christmas as a family – was an overnight visit to Anatole Dallas! We were so excited to experience our very first Christmas at the Anatole, we’d heard it was a top notch interactive experience. And that is so true! The Christmas program features a variety of festive offerings including an interactive Breakfast with Santa experience, holiday movies, and a very merry scavenger hunt – our family was never bored!

And our room ya’ll! It was absolutely beautiful. In fact, everywhere we turned the Hilton Anatole was decorated beautifully, and our every creature comfort had been thought of and looked after. Check out the relaxing room we called home for a night…

After checking in, we ordered room service. This room service absolutely topped ANY we have ever gotten. It was delivered to our room promptly, and still piping hot. And it was truly delicious. Eating a top notch dinner in Christmas pajamas?

Pure heaven!

The morning after check in, we woke up and leisurely got ready for Breakfast with Santa. Every hall we walked down had more fun holiday decorations to look at, and the food at Santa’s breakfast was super. Lot’s of offerings for picky kids too!

Mr. and Mrs. Santa took time at each table, and we never felt rushed. When breakfast finished we started the scavenger hunt portion of the day and got beautiful face painting done. Made our own hot cocoa creations, and saw an absolutely precious puppet show!

And the fun wasn’t just for the kids. My husband and I appreciated the classic and modern art all around the Anatole. I also really loved the peaceful atmosphere of Christmas at the Anatole – I didn’t feel like I was in a chaotic rush like I sometimes do at other attractions.

This was truly an escape from the rest of the world.

I can’t believe I’ve lived in the Dallas area for almost 10 years – and this is the first time we’ve made our way over to the Hilton Anatole for the holidays. Trust me when I say, you will not regret the trip. We made so many wonderful family memories here, and we hope to experience it again next year. There is so much to do – you can scarcely get to it all in one trip!

It shouldn’t have taken this long, but I just we It shouldn’t have taken this long, but I just went bowling for the first time in my life! 🎳

I avoided it at first because it didn’t seem that fun. Then- because I didn’t know how to do it. But, this year I’m challenging myself to try new things. Even if I look like an idiot! Who cares?! 😃

Bottom line, loved bowling. I suck. But it’s fun! Who knew? Well, lots of people. But now me too! Also- it’s helpful to have friends that make you try new things and expand your horizons. Super grateful for mine! ❤️
