"Opulent and sophisticated since 1905, this limestone-and-granite grande dame goes all-out for the holidays: a staircase that begs for a saunter, ornament-lined trees nearly as tall as the building, and a train-themed Afternoon Tea that keeps the mezzanine spirited, plus The Chesa at Pen Top on the rooftop, which transforms into an Alpine Swiss Chalet–style scene with fondue, festive cocktails, and a warm, glowing bar; when visiting with kids, don’t miss The Peninsula Sweet Shoppe stocked with Sugarfina treats to fill stockings for days." - Kayleigh Ruller
