Written by The most wonderful time of the year is here.
To commence the year-end festivities the customary Christmas Tree Lighting ceremony at Park Hyatt Chennai was organized on Saturday December 11th in the hotel lobby. This year the concept was made extra special by turning the Christmas Tree into a Christmas Wish Tree.
Children from Rainbow Home (an orphanage for girls) were invited, through Chennai Volunteers, to share their Christmas wish list with the hotel prior to the event, and come to light the tree on the day. The girls aged between 4 – 14 years sent their wishes, which were displayed on the Christmas Wish Tree for guests and employees to view and sponsor. These articles will be purchased and gifted to them on Christmas Eve.
In addition to the children, our esteemed hotel guests joined us for the ceremony along with wellknown food critic Ms. Ameeta Agnihotri. The tree lighting was followed by carol singing by the hotel team and hi tea for everyone. Christmas specials like mulled wine, jalapeno cheese croquettes, muffins and plum cakes were served. This concept had already touched many of our guests and they are lining up for fulfilling the wishes.
General Manager Sascha Lenz adds,’ Christmas is the time for giving back and even more so after the challenging times we have seen. We wanted to do our bit for the community we live in and spread the spirit of Christmas among the less fortunate. Luckily this concept has been much appreciated among our guests and colleagues and we hope to bring lots of smiles on the faces of these kids on Christmas.’
Park Hyatt Chennai has an array of festivities lined up for Christmas. Join us to celebrate the merry month!
