After a year that’s taught us to treasure our friends and loved ones even more, the Christmas festivities herald a time for expressing those sentiments and highlighting the importance of togetherness – even if you can’t be there in person. Taking on the role of Santa, The St. Regis Kuala Lumpur is offering an assortment of delightful gifting options, starting with their limited edition holiday trunks (from RM618 to RM980), which contain such treats as sugar cookies, homemade chocolates, and a Christmas stollen.
From the same Santa’s Kitchen—which has taken up residence in the hotel’s lobby until the end of the year—come individual edible gifts such as North Pole-inspired log cakes, and smashable chocolate Bonbonnières and Christmas trees concealing pralines or candies. Those who miss The St. Regis Kuala Lumpur’s cooking but wish to dine at home can order their Christmas feasts for takeaway or delivery. A Festive Brunch Box (RM498) with a turkey and lamb rack, all the traditional trimmings (expect squabbles over the caramelised chestnuts), and cocktails from Astor Bar will bring Christmas cheer to four hungry guests.
For guests who wish for nothing more than a classic St. Regis Christmas—with hygiene SOPs in place, of course—make a reservation for The Brasserie’s Christmas Eve buffet dinner or Christmas Day brunch (prices start from RM418 per person). Those who wish for a lighter celebration can opt for a festive afternoon tea in The Drawing Room (from RM158 per person) throughout December. Young families can have some yuletide fun in the sun at the annual Family Traditions afternoon tea by the pool (from RM158 per person) on 12 and 13 December. Don’t forget to swing by the lobby afterwards to gaze at Santa’s Kitchen and the towering Christmas tree.
