Celebrate the Season at Winter Village at The Westin Edina Galleria

Winter Village at The Westin Edina Galleria

Step into the streets of the Swiss Alps at Winter Village at The Westin Edina Galleria, an immersive holiday celebration open from November 29th through February 11th. Greeted by scents of balsam and décor that transforms the hotel into an urban chalet meets Swiss-inspired streetscape, The Westin Edina Galleria invites guests and visitors alike to discover its immersive winter wonderland featuring a range of food & beverage specials, outdoor après ski courtyard experience, winter events and weekend excursions to usher in the holiday spirit.

Prelude at The Westin Edina Galleria

From the moment the doors open into our lobby lounge and bar, Prelude, expect to walk into a warm and cozy escape. If the ornate decorations and smells of balsam and pine don't transport you to the slopes, then perhaps a gondola ride or dinner in a winter cabin will take you on the holiday that you desire.

Afternoon Tea

Don your red coats for afternoon tea and champagne, paired with an assortment of traditional finger foods. Bonus points for popping up a pinky as you sip. Sundays throughout December.

Après Chalet Cabin

It wouldn't be a true Swiss ski village experience without Après Ski. With the addition of a fully-enclosed, heated cabin and outdoor fire pits, you will be safe and warm from the cold. A mug of mulled wine or a whisky neat will take any remaining chill right away.

Après Chalet Alpine Dining Experience

While you were busy decking your own halls, The Westin Edina Galleria was hard at work transforming its space into a Swiss wonderland. The house restaurant becomes a chic ski chalet in the Alps, complete with a chairlift, gondola cars for dining, and a wooden courtyard cabin for special dining experiences. The Alpine Dining Experience includes delectables such as cheese fondue with apples, bread, veggies, and cornichons or chocolate fondue with dippable treats. Complimentary mulled wine or spiked apple cider is calling your name.

Holiday Staycation

Experience our festive seasonal offer. Warm up in the outdoor cabin with firepits or a warm signature cocktail at Prelude. Enjoy the immersive winter wonderland featuring a range of food & beverage specials, outdoor après ski courtyard experience, winter events, and weekend excursions to usher in the holiday spirit.
