CHRISTMAS AT HEARST CASTLEŽ
San Simeon, CA – Christmas was one of
William Randolph Hearst’s favorite
holidays. San Simeon was an enchanted
setting for entertaining on a grand scale,
and invitations to Hearst CastleŽ during the
holidays were highly coveted. At
Christmastime, The Assembly Room, The
Refectory, and The Morning Room contain
lavish decorations of hand-made garlands,
brilliant red poinsettias, and two 18-foot
Christmas trees fully decorated with lights
and traditional ornaments.
Beginning Monday, November 12th
this yearly tradition of Christmas
decorations starts to unfold. The staff at
Hearst CastleŽ will be decorating the castle
from November 12th through
December 1st. On Thursday,
December 1st the decorating will
be complete for the public to enjoy. The
Experience Tour during the daytime includes
these rooms for viewing. Tours are offered
daily, except Thanksgiving Day, Christmas
Day, and New Year’s Day. Reservations are
highly recommended due to the limited
availability. Experience Tour prices are
$20 for adults and $10 for youth ages 6
through 17.
