Christmas truly is a magical time of year; the traditions, the get-togethers, the festive decorations and time away from work, but it can also be exhausting. Weeks of planning, Christmas shopping, preparation, family logistics, hosting responsibilities, cooking and entertaining – it can often leave you feeling relieved it’s finally all over.
So, we have an idea. What if you left behind all the stressful parts and came to us at The Imperial this Christmas?
Imagine finishing work for the Christmas break knowing all that lies ahead is a festive escape in beautiful North Wales, quality time with the people who matter most, and delicious food prepared for you from start to finish.
More and more people are choosing festive breaks so they can enjoy the important things; more quality time with family and friends, more time to enjoy the festivities and reconnect with what Christmas means to them.
It’s time to start a new tradition – to make sure Christmas is more fun than stress!

When you get away for Christmas on a festive break here at our Victorian seaside hotel in Llandudno you can wake up knowing your traditional festive lunch is already being prepped, entertainment has been taken care of and the only thing on your schedule is to spend time with the people you love. Maybe that means a hearty breakfast and then wrapping up for a walks in Llandudno along the Promenade, visiting some fascinating medieval castles near Llandudno or making your way to Mint Condition, our health and wellness facilities, for a swim, a gym or simply time in the sauna and spa bath.
On a Christmas away from home, you can. It’s the gift of time; to reconnect with your loved one, play with the kids, slow the pace of life and remind yourself what self-care means.
The 3-Night Yuletide Retreat invites you to relax, celebrate and feast! From the delightful cream tea on arrival to the final Boxing Day evening Farewell Gala Dinner, all you have to do is make sure you have an appetite. In between meals and entertainment, your Christmas break is all yours, whether you wish to hike in the mountains of Eryri (Snowdonia) National Park or spend the afternoon playing board games.
Perhaps it’s a pantomime that really makes it feel like Christmas for you and your family. This year at Venue Cymru you can watch the spellbinding family-friendly tale of Sleeping Beauty – book now, it’s never too early!
It’s no wonder more families are swapping Christmas stress for Christmas memories and experiences by booking a festive break away from it all.
Create New Traditions
Who said you had to host in order to get the family together? Make it a festive family break in Llandudno. Encourage parents, siblings and their families to join you, giving you a Christmas together without any of the planning or responsibility.
Book a Christmas break with grandparents, aunts and uncles; get away together so you can get back to what’s important – unforgettable experiences and celebrating together.
You needn’t spend all day together, get out for walks in and around Llandudno and North Wales explorations, enjoy the festive activities and entertainment and then meet up for meals or afternoon tea.

Festive Party Nights
Christmas is a time of celebration, be it with friends, family or colleagues. A festive party night is one of the highlights of the season; a chance to dress up, enjoy great food, hit the dance floor and celebrate the year with the ones you spent it with. And if you’d like to make a night of it and stick around until the last song, book a room and stay over!
Party nights at The Imperial Llandudno hotel include a drink on arrival, a 3-course meal with tea and coffee and mince pies, followed by dancing until midnight and a self-service photobooth so you can capture the fun!

Festive Lunches
If you’re thinking more along the lines of festive lunch get-together rather than festive party night, we’ve got just the thing.
Perfect for groups of friends, colleagues or run club buddies; you send out the invites, we’ll do the rest. Come together at the end of the year for a 2-course lunch celebration at The Imperial Hotel. Or sit down to a delightful traditional festive afternoon tea. There’s no better excuse than feasts and festivities.
Don’t let the sudden appearance of Christmas decorations on supermarket shelves in October cause you stress. The best festive celebrations are the ones planned early, and the ones hosted by someone else!
Whether you’re planning a festive family getaway, a Christmas celebration with friends or a memorable party night with colleagues, now is the time to start planning. The festive season creeps up and the best dates are often the first to go, so book now and have the fun to look forward to in December, and the rest of the year to enjoy the run-up, guilt-free!
