Christmas celebrations in the hotel

Christmas celebrations in the hotel – service providers should know that celebrating Christmas in a hotel is falsely
seen as impersonal and sad. In reality, more and more people are looking for a way to escape the stress of the festivities and to be pampered in a special way at the end of the year.

This aspect poses a particular challenge for hotel owners. After all, they are the ones who can offer unforgettable days with the whole family.

The following tips will ensure that your young and old guests will be happy to remember this very special time of the year.

Tip No. 1: The mix of stylish and Christmas decorations

The majority of guests checking into the hotel over the Christmas days may have decided to do so for private reasons. How “kitschy” or elegant the various elements should depend of course on personal taste. However, if you want to be on the safe side here, you should opt for a largely neutral variant.

Tip No. 2: The "gift room"

For many of their guests, Christmas certainly means sharing closeness and love with as many people as possible. But why should gifts only be distributed in the room? Many hotels have now started to offer their guests a larger room with a festively decorated Christmas tree. A great place to celebrate sharing presents with loved ones and to enjoy Christmas on a new level.

Tip No. 3: The Christmas menu

For many of your guests, the obligatory goose for Christmas is certainly as much a part of it as a visit to church. Nevertheless, it makes sense to make the Christmas menu in the hotel a little more varied. How about a vegetarian alternative? Or with a small culinary excursion to other countries? The imagination knows no limits. Use the Christmas days and the corresponding offer to surprise your guests in a very special way.

Tip No. 4: The "real" Santa Claus

Depending on the hotel, it may also be a good idea to invite the “real” Santa Claus. Especially if you specialize mainly in families with small children, this is certainly a welcome guest.

To make sure that no child misses the visit of "Santa Claus", it makes sense to announce this a few days in advance.

Tip No. 5: Gifts and special extras for the guests

Christmas is of course also a wonderful way to say, “Thank you!” to your guests in a special way. In order to remain authentic here, it is important to choose gifts that are combined effectively with the corporate philosophy.

How about a chocolate Santa in front of the room door, for example? Or, a small gift set consisting of different hygiene articles and with a hotel logo?

All of these gifts (and many other ideas) can of course also be sent to long-standing regular customers, who this Christmas may be spending their holidays at home and not with your customary hospitality.
