Sugar, Spice, and Cities So Nice

The holiday season is officially here, which means festive dinners with friends and family, nights in with your favorite series—and soon, planning winter getaways.

Whether it’s to shake off the post-holiday rush or lift those winter blues, having a weekend away to look forward to can brighten even the coldest months. Some winter favorites include Barcelona’s Sir Victor for a dose of sunshine, warm tapas, and cava to toast the new year. Or explore Berlin, where short days turn into long nights at world-famous clubs (nothing says winter like queuing for Berghain) and a fantastic food scene—see our City Guides for local favorites. For charm, of course, Amsterdam captures everyone's heart, and so do the city’s museums, like Stedelijk, for modern art, and FOAM for photography, which is also at the top of our list for things to do in case of rainy weather.

Wherever you go, enjoy 30% off your city break this season when you book by 5 December for stays through 31 March 2025.
