November 12, 2007 |
Nov 12, 2007 -- /prbuzz/ --Berlin is one of Germany’s main Christmas centres, with more than 50 Christmas markets and bazaars ever year. Filled with the seasonal aroma of mulled wine, roasted chestnuts and fir trees, the main market square buzzes with 100 handicraft stalls, refreshment stands and amusements. This winter Cox & Kings is offering 4 nights for the price of 3 at the city’s stylish Brandenburger Hof to coincide with the markets.
Each December, Berlin’s Gendarmenmarkt provides a wonderful setting for some of Germany’s most extensive and popular Christmas markets. Craft tents host wood carvers, flax-embroiderers, ivory carvers, tailors, wood-turners and goldsmiths; the food tents serve festive gingerbread, roasted chestnuts, mulled wine and sausages, and children are entertained for hours with performances from clowns, acrobats, story-tellers, choirs and magicians.
The markets are also an ideal opportunity to buy unique and traditional Christmas gifts and stocking fillers. But there’s a lot more to Berlin than shopping. Famed for its devotion to the arts, the city has over 170 museums, including the Pergamon Museum, rich in classical antiquity, and the Schloss Charlottenburg, the former summer residence of Queen Sophie Charlotte.
A member of the small luxury hotels of the world, the Brandenburger Hof is a stylish 72-room boutique property in the centre of Berlin, close to many of the city’s sights and museums. Die Quadriga, its gourmet French restaurant, is considered to be one of the city’s top five restaurants and has a prestigious Michelin star as well as an award-winning German wine list.
Travelling between 1 November and 27 December, a four-night stay at the Brandenburger Hof in Berlin costs just £430 per person, including flights from London Heathrow with British Airways, transfers and breakfast daily.
Cox & Kings offers short breaks to a number of European cities with Christmas markets, including Vienna, Prague, Dublin, Riga, Tallinn and St. Petersburg. For full details of Cox & Kings’ short breaks programme visit www.coxandkings.co.uk
