Christmas & New Year's Breaks

...where warmth, charm, and holiday cheer come together to create the perfect Dublin Christmas escape.

Nestled in a peaceful corner of Dublin, yet just minutes from the heart of the city, Sandymount Hotel offers a cozy retreat with twinkling lights, seasonal décor, and a welcoming atmosphere that makes you feel at home for the holidays. Whether you're sipping a festive drink by the fire or enjoying a delicious Christmas meal in our restaurant, the spirit of the season is all around you.

Thanks to our prime location, you’re just a short journey away from all of Dublin’s most magical festive events. For those in the mood for some Christmas shopping, Grafton Street is a quick trip from the hotel, where you can soak in the iconic holiday lights and browse through a range of stores. A visit to Christmas at the Castle, the charming Christmas market at Dublin Castle, is also easily accessible and offers a delightful mix of crafts, gifts, and seasonal treats.

Families can embark on an enchanting evening adventure with Wildlights at Dublin Zoo or the luminous Wonderlights at Malahide Castle, both within easy reach from the hotel. For younger visitors, Elftown at the RDS is just a short walk away, bringing Santa's elves and holiday fun to life.

 Stay with us and you’ll also be close to the Guinness Storehouse, where the iconic brewery transforms into a festive Winter Wonderland, perfect for a unique Dublin experience. If you’re looking for some winter fun, head to Dun Laoghaire for the Christmas Festival and have a spin on Ireland’s largest ice rink.

 As the year comes to a close, ring in 2025 with the spectacular New Year’s Festival, where Dublin’s streets come alive with live music, light shows, and fireworks. After a night of celebrations, Sandymount Hotel offers the perfect sanctuary to unwind and relax.

 Whether you're planning a Christmas shopping getaway, a festive Twixmas escape, or a New Year's celebration, Sandymount Hotel provides the ideal base to enjoy all the holiday magic Dublin has to offer.
