It is the same every year. We think we have ages to get all the presents sorted, order the turkey, and organize a family get-together, but we always seem to be rushing to get things ready for Christmas.

Well, this year, why not try something different to celebrate the festive season, like a staycation at prestigious yet elegant luxury hospitalities from Oetker Collection. See our recommendations below!

Whether it be for the ultimate city staycation or a festive shopping break to remember, The Lanesborough has something for all ages to enjoy during the holidays, with a variety of festive-filled experiences and exclusive packages.

The hotel is again set to fill Londoners with Christmas hope and cheer with a festive display titled ‘Be Bright & Sparkle!’, designed by renowned Event Imagineer Tony Marklew unveiled on November 12th.

For the winter season, which begins on December 17th, 2021, L'Apogée Courchevel, part of the Oetker Collection portfolio of masterpieces, offers a highly festive program around Christmas and New Year's Eve.

On New Year’s Eve on December 31st, L’Apogée Courchevel suggests an evening’s entertainment of a dinner on the theme of The Cotton Club by L’Apogée. The hotel is recreating the ambiance of the legendary Harlem speakeasy with a celebration that will transport you straight back to the roaring ‘20s.

This year, our beloved Brenners Park-Hotel & Spa sparkles again with holiday spirit. Everything is decked in festive finery, and a particular fascination fills the air. After all, what could be nicer than sitting next to the fire in the festively decorated Kaminhalle for an Afternoon Tea inspired by Pierre Hermé Paris after a long winter stroll at Baden-Baden's Christmas market or savoring fine culinary treats in one of our restaurants after the Ballet Gala or the New Year's Eve concert in Baden-Baden's Festspielhaus.
