Stroll through the classically decorated city streets perusing shops, restaurants and museums with an added feeling of cheer. Stock up on traditional wool Irish sweaters, hats and scarves for yourself, or bring home for family and friends before Christmas.

With special events occurring throughout the city, both tourists and locals enjoy traditional Irish holiday events, as the hotel provides an exclusive package for the early holiday season. Enjoy the multimillion dollar renovations of the Conrad with an overnight stay, including breakfast, beginning at $274 per night.

Spring for a holiday getaway and enjoy the same yuletide cheer and tidings you would with the family at home, but without all of the dishes. The Unforgettable Christmas package offers guests a two-night stay at Conrad Dublin, Dec. 24–25. This special booking includes a warm welcome, complete with homemade mulled wine and mince pies, before a special evening of festive cocktails and cuisine at Lemuel’s. Explore the city at night and enjoy the old-world architecture decorated with lights and festive flair.

Two Family Escapes Where the Water Park Is Included

With travel costs on the rise, family travelers may be rethinking their spring and summer getaways and seeking out destinations where the built-in entertainment is included. Instead of adding expensive tickets and excursions, look for resorts that deliver high-impact experiences with water parks and activities all included in the stay. Two options, in The Bahamas and Orlando, offer just that:

Board a Nile River Cruise with A&K Sanctuary

If Agatha Christie took a Nile voyage today, we like to think she would do it aboard one of our A&K Sanctuary riverboats — consistently voted the best on the river, from boutique cruisers to a handsome six-suite dahabiya.
