Guests can compare the complete inclusions, booking conditions and current availability through the Malmaison Christmas hotel packages for 2026.
Christmas Dining and Festive Menus at Chez Mal
Christmas dining at Chez Mal Brasserie & Bar goes beyond the traditional turkey dinner. With seasonal menus, Champagne, festive lunches and afternoon tea, there are options for different occasions throughout November and December.
Dining experiences can be booked separately from hotel accommodation at participating locations, with menus, prices and availability varying by hotel.
Festive Dining and the Celebrations Menu
The three-course Chez Mal Celebrations Menu is designed for festive lunches and dinners with friends, family or colleagues. Available at participating hotels from 18 November to 24 December 2026, it brings seasonal flavours into Chez Mal's contemporary brasserie setting.
With prices starting from £34.50 per person, it's an option for everything from a small Christmas catch-up to a larger group celebration.
Guests can enjoy the occasion over a leisurely meal, with cocktails, wine and Champagne available to complement the food. Individual dishes and pricing vary by location, so it's worth reviewing the current menu at your preferred hotel before booking.
Christmas Day Lunch
Malmaison Christmas Day lunch is a dedicated four-course dining experience, distinct from the Celebrations Menu served in the weeks leading up to Christmas.
The 2026 offering includes traditional festive accompaniments and a glass of Champagne, with prices starting from £119 per person. It's a chance to gather everyone around the table without spending Christmas morning preparing dinner or the afternoon tackling the washing-up.
Christmas Day dining at Chez Mal is available at participating hotels, excluding Malmaison London. Reservations should be made in advance, particularly for larger families and groups looking to dine together.
Festive Sunday and Boxing Day Lunches
The dedicated festive lunch menu brings a seasonal twist to the traditional Sunday roast. Guests can begin at the Chef's Table, with a selection of hors d'oeuvres, salads, antipasti and seafood, before choosing from classic roasts, Malmaison favourites and seasonal dishes.
Available on selected Sundays during the festive period and Boxing Day at participating hotels, prices start from £35 per person. It's an appealing alternative to an evening celebration, particularly for families or groups who prefer a leisurely afternoon meal.
Festive Afternoon Tea
For something lighter, Malmaison's festive afternoon tea combines traditional afternoon tea favourites with seasonal savouries, sweet treats and a glass of Champagne or a festive cocktail.
Available from 18 November to 24 December 2026, prices start from £35 per person, with higher pricing at Malmaison Aberdeen. Pre-booking is essential, and the experience is not available at Malmaison Oxford or London.
Christmas Party Packages and Private Celebrations
Malmaison Christmas party packages offer different ways to celebrate with colleagues, friends or family, from festive group dinners to private events with dedicated dining spaces. The best option depends on your group size, preferred atmosphere and whether you want a private celebration or the buzz of Chez Mal.
There are two main ways to organise your festive gathering:
Group dining at Chez Mal: Ideal for smaller teams, friends and families who want to enjoy the three-course Celebrations Menu together in the restaurant's brasserie setting.
Private dining and celebrations: A dedicated space for groups who prefer their own setting. Packages at participating hotels start from £42.50 per person, including room hire, the three-course Celebrations Menu and Christmas crackers. An enhanced option from £62.50 adds a glass of fizz and half a bottle of wine per person.
For groups looking for something lighter, selected hotels also offer pre-order canapés and sharing-style menus. Seasonal Christmas drinks packages provide further options for wine, Champagne, beer, spirits and soft drinks, with advertised package prices valid for pre-orders made at least two weeks before the event.
Guests travelling from further afield can enquire about overnight accommodation, while individual hotels can advise on available event spaces, guest capacities and booking requirements.
Malmaison's Christmas group bookings guide provides additional information for those arranging larger celebrations, while the hotel team can confirm the most suitable package for your group.
