maltatoday, SUNDAY, 11 DECEMBER 2016 II Christmas THERE'S nothing quite like the run-up to Christmas in a hotel kitchen. The creativity, the challenges and late nights that go into ensuring that every guest is well looked after over the festive season. Christmas has been a special time at the Corinthia Palace Hotel & Spa since it first opened its doors in 1968. From the beautiful decorations in the lobby to the lively celebrations in the Villa Corinthia, the hotel has long been a Christmas institution – a destination that can be counted on to make this special time of year extraordinary. This year will be no different. From the Lighting Ceremony, the kick-start to their festive season, to its highly-anticipated New Year's Eve gala dinner, the hotel promises to bring sparkle and excellence to every event. THE FESTIVE SEASON Here's something they can guarantee: there's nowhere more magical for you to spend the festive season than at the Corinthia Palace. To celebrate this special time of year, the hotel will be hosting numerous events between Christmas and New Year's Day.
