Overview

Why not join a lovely group of Spice members to celebrate Christmas in style in the vibrant city of Leeds?

This year for our Spice National Christmas break we are thrilled to be staying at the Double Tree Hotel by Hilton in Leeds for our 8th Christmas with this great hotel chain. This fabulous city centre 4 star hotel is situated within half a mile of Leeds Train Station allowing easy transport options. And for those in search of retail therapy, the hotel is a stone’s throw away from the city centre shops and boutiques.

As many of you know though, it isn't just about being in a great hotel with good food in a nice location, it is very much about getting to spend Christmas with a lovely, like minded group of Spice members.

Includes

3 nights 4* accommodation with breakfast, 2 x 3 course evening meals, 1 x evening buffet, 3 course Christmas Day Lunch, Mulled Wine & Mince Pies on Xmas Eve, a Treasure Hunt & much more!

Extras

Lunch on boxing day, Drinks from the bar, a unisex secret santa gift valued around £10 and entrance to any optional activities taken. Parking costs if you drive there.

Location & Itinerary

Arrive anytime on Christmas Eve when you are free to explore the lively city centre then we’ll meet up for a drink before going for our dinner, a 3 course meal at the delightful Lock Restaurant & Bar within the hotel. The menus for the whole break will be provided 4 weeks in advance of the event for you to make your choices. After dinner if you have the energy (we all know how tiring the run up to Christmas can be) we have a few options to choose from, including Christmas Eve late night mass or perhaps if we are lucky we will find a bar open late in to the evening. Be back for midnight if you don’t want to miss out on our mulled wine and mince pies at the hotel!

Christmas day will comprise of a buffet style breakfast remembering to leave room for our sumptuous 3 course Christmas Day Lunch, and energy for a city walkabout, Secret Santa (value around £10) will make an appearance too.For those who have room left, we will be served a light evening buffet before we have the option to take part in a festive quiz and socialise with our Spice friends old & new.

On Boxing day after breakfast there is an optional (included) treasure hunt around the city centre, or you can enjoy some retail therapy or simply just take the time to explore the city more. In the evening we sit down to our 3 course meal in the Lock Restaurant & Bar followed by our final evening of socialising. 

On the final day we will enjoy a buffet breakfast before saying our goodbyes to both the hotel and our fellow Spicers. Subject to numbers there may be the option of a canal walk straight from the hotel in search of a local hostelry!
