Berlin Christmas Market Break, Flights & The Dean Hotel From €243pp!
Discover Berlin Christmas market breaks for 2026. Prices include flights and hotel, offering fantastic value for your festive break.
A Berlin Christmas market break is one of the best ways to experience the festive season. With more than 80 Christmas markets held across the city each year, Berlin offers everything from traditional wooden chalets and handcrafted gifts to festive food, Glühwein and sparkling Christmas lights.
One of the highlights of any Berlin Christmas market trip is Christmas at Charlottenburg Palace, where the stunning baroque palace provides a magical backdrop for artisan stalls, seasonal treats and live entertainment.
The Breitscheidplatz Christmas Market, beside the Kaiser Wilhelm Memorial Church, is another favourite, featuring a towering Christmas tree, traditional market stalls and a festive atmosphere in the heart of the city. For one of Germany’s largest markets, visit Spandau Christmas Market, where Berlin’s historic old town is transformed with hundreds of stalls, live music, crafts and festive attractions.
The main Berlin Christmas markets are open from November 18, 2026– January 03, 2027. See more here.
Beyond the Berlin Christmas market experience, the city is packed with iconic landmarks and attractions. Walk through the famous Brandenburg Gate, visit the murals at the East Side Gallery, explore the historic Reichstag Building and admire the views from its impressive glass dome. History enthusiasts can also visit Museum Island, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, or learn more about Berlin’s past at Checkpoint Charlie and the Berlin Wall Memorial.
I had the pleasure of staying at the newly opened (February 2026) 4 star Dean Hotel in Charlottenburg, located in West Berlin. Set in one of the city’s most charming neighbourhoods, the area has a relaxed, local feel while still being within easy reach of Berlin’s famous attractions and Christmas markets.
The hotel itself is beautifully designed, with just 80 rooms, giving it a boutique feel that’s both stylish and welcoming. The interiors are full of character, featuring contemporary artwork displayed throughout the hotel, and thoughtfully designed spaces that make it feel effortlessly cool. There’s also a lovely coffee shop on site, perfect for starting your day or taking a break after exploring the city. The staff were incredibly warm and welcoming, making the stay feel even more special.
Step outside and you’ll find plenty of independent coffee shops, trendy bars, and fantastic restaurants nearby. There’s even an iconic kebab spot right next door that’s a favourite with locals and the perfect place to satisfy those late-night cravings. If shopping is on your itinerary, one of Berlin’s major shopping streets is just a 10 minute walk away, making it easy to pick up Christmas presents between visits to the festive markets.
The Dean Hotel has also kindly given our readers an exclusive discount of up to 30% off stays, making it the perfect base for discovering Berlin’s magical Christmas markets in 2026. During your stay, don’t miss breakfast or brunch at Benedict Berlin, the hotel’s on-site restaurant and one of the area’s most popular brunch spots, known for its incredible all day breakfast menu.
