Discover Hidden Christmas Treasures With WORLDHOTELS
(firmenpresse) - London, October 17, 2007. Everyone loves buzzing, festive Christmas markets like the ones in Nuremberg, Dresden, or Vienna. For all those who cannot get enough of mulled wine, roasted almonds, and gingerbread hearts, there are also many other magical locations sparkling with the spirit of the holidays just waiting to be discovered! This winter, WORLDHOTELS is inviting Christmas shoppers to visit some of these hidden Advent locations and is offering fantastic festive deals to celebrate. In addition to the well-known holiday travel destinations, the global independent hotel group is highlighting three great European cities for Christmas shoppers – Graz in Austria, Montreux in Switzerland and Berlin in Germany.
Graz is the city to visit during Advent season. One of the main attractions is the gigantic ice sculpture that sparkles magically under the festive lights of the renaissance square. This year, ice artists will create a monumental nativity scene made from 50 tons of crystal-clear ice. At the same time, the main square in the city comes alive with market stalls selling “Feuerzangenbowle”, the legendary flaming spiced wine with rum, as well as traditional arts and crafts. A special “Advent in Graz” package is available at the WORLDHOTELS First Class Collection property, The Weitzer. The offer includes two nights B&B accommodation, a three course dinner, a glass of mulled wine at the hotel bar, a guided advent walk and a small Christmas gift – all for 190 Euro (approx. £132) per person sharing a double room and 255 Euro (approx. £178) for a single room.* Being the largest hotel in the city, the Weitzer provides utmost comfort in combination with the cordial atmosphere and personal service typical for a family-run hotel.
Another beautiful Christmas venue is Montreux in Switzerland. Children will love the Santa Claus Express which winds its way to the Christmas grotto at the top of the small Riviera town. Inside Santa’s Toy Factory children can watch elves making thousands of presents. For adults there is the traditional Christmas market with over 120 exhibitors and craftspeople selling their wares from lovingly decorated chalets, while a variety of entertainment is held in the market square. Special Christmas packages are offered by the WORLDHOTELS properties Hotel Royal Plaza Montreux and The Eden Palace au Lac. The Royal Plaza is the only five star hotel on Lake Geneva. It has recently been completely refurbished and offers stunning views of the lake and the French Alps. Being part of the WORLDHOTELS Deluxe Collection, the property guarantees luxurious accommodation, exclusive ambience and unsurpassed service. During Advent season, the hotel is offering a B&B rate from 257 CHF (approx. £107) for a double room.** At the WORLDHOTELS First Class hotel Eden Palace Du Lac, guests can enjoy a stay at a special B&B rate from 197 CHF (approx. £82) for a double room.*** Facing the shore of Lake Geneva, the property evokes the enchanting charm of 100 years of tradition. It has been completely renovated with up-to date facilities installed while still retaining the charms of its Victorian architecture.
For those not wanting to stray too far from their hotel, the Ku’ Damm 101 Hotel, Berlin, is offering the perfect solution. The member of the WORLDHOTELS Comfort Collection is to stage an extraordinary Christmas exhibition called “101 presents” and has invited 40 international designers to present their favourite collection pieces including unconventional furniture, colourful accessories, fine chocolate, and high end beauty products, all of which make enchanting gifts. “101 presents” will take place at the lifestyle hotel on the weekend from the 8th to the 9th of December. The hotel has put together a special package including two nights accommodation with buffet breakfast, a wellness treatment and a 25 Euro (approx. £17) shopping voucher for the exhibition. The cost of the package is 174 Euro (approx. £121) per person in a double room or 227 Euro (approx. £158) in a single. Located right at Berlin’s most famous shopping street Kurfürstendamm, the stylish hotel is the perfect starting point for extensive Christmas shopping tours.
