If the holiday spirit hasn’t warmed your cold, dark soul yet, one visit to the winter wonderland set up at Reflections at the Rosewood Hotel Georgia might be just the infusion needed to get you humming a few bars of “Jingle Bells.”

Previously just an April to September warmer-weather option, the Garden Terrace (aka patio) at the storied downtown hotel will make its debut on Thursday, November 24 as December destination, complete with garlands, twinkle lights, throw blankets, hot toddies, and tasty tapas.

The team at the Rosewood Hotel Georgia have been busily firing up the heat lamps, hanging the boughs and baubles, prepping the menus, and queuing up the holiday movies in preparation for Reflections’ launch.

The space is sectioned off to protect guests from any inclement weather, and overall it exudes a “Christmas in California” vibe, thanks to the coastal chic decor decked out in holiday style.

The cocktail menu includes an array of themed drinks, from boozy hot cocoa to bubbles and beyond. Guests can cozy up over a pot of fondue, or tuck into share plates like a duck flatbread, charcuterie boards, olives, nuts, and other nibbles.

We were able to take a sneak peek of the space ahead of its opening to get a look at this ideal respite for weary shoppers, romantic duos, or post-work holiday revelry.
