One of Hallmark’s last offerings in 2025, A Suite Holiday Romance, is a delightful watch. Let’s dive into the story.
Sabrina Parker, played by Jessy Schram, is a struggling writer. She takes on a ghostwriting job at the Grand Fairbanks Hotel in New York City, hoping for holiday inspiration. Despite her plans to focus on work, she meets Ian Turner (Dominic Sherwood), a British tourist. Their meeting is filled with misunderstandings, leading to unforeseen twists in what’s supposed to be a magical week.
This film embraces familiar tropes typical of holiday romances, such as the dramatic revelations and romantic cliches. However, it stands out thanks to its charming New York backdrop. The city’s festive twinkling lights and stunning views add a special touch, even if they’re a common setting for this genre. Schram, who fans might recognize from Chicago Med, and Sherwood, relatively new to Hallmark, share an engaging chemistry. They even choreographed some dance scenes together, adding a nice personal flair to their performances.
If you enjoy heartwarming Christmas stories set against vibrant city scenes, you’ll likely find A Suite Holiday Romance to be a charming addition to your holiday lineup.

In fact, nearly 70% of respondents stated that watching holiday movies improves their mood during the festive season. This illustrates why such films continue to be popular year after year.
Ultimately, A Suite Holiday Romance is a cozy option for fans of Christmas movies. Its blend of romance and holiday spirit hits just the right note, making it an enjoyable watch. Don’t miss it on Hallmark+.
