One of the best!
This was a great experience. We got there early and they held our bags for us, and let us check in early. Breakfast buffet was great, as was dinner. Right in the middle of town!

The tablet with Aurora notifications makes this property unique and top notch. We stayed for a night to do peak season and low availability on our travel dates but we saw Aurora!
Buffet breakfast is also very generous. Highly recommended!

Perfect visit
The Santa hotel was wonderful in every way....our arrival, check in was quick and easy and the reception area is/was warm and welcoming ...and beautifully decorated. I was enchanted with families playing in snow right in front of the hotel. And the hotel had a box of toboggans and snow play was encouraged/ Room was super comfortable. Food is restaurant was great and fairly priced. Enjoyed every second there.

Hair in the shower, drain wasn't working, and something purple in the tub. So when I took a shower, there was purple that came up and stayed in the water. It was gross!
