Family travelers to Chicago will want to book the Santa Suite at Swissôtel Chicago. Tickets and bookings are now available for the return of this beloved tradition.

“We’re excited to welcome guests back to the Santa Suite for another year of holiday magic,” said Angela Bauer, general manager, Swissôtel Chicago. “This year’s theme of holiday songs brings a festive, musical twist that’s sure to delight visitors of all ages. From Santa Days to private bookings and overnight stays, we’re offering something special for everyone this season.”
