One of the most enchanting winter destinations in Spain has to be Madrid. It has long been regarded as one of the best Spanish cities for Christmas celebrations. Why? The city gets transformed from the middle of November, and this marvellous aesthetic remains till around the beginning of January. Vibrant and exciting Christmas markets all over, offering plenty of opportunities for shoppers and foodies to get involved with festivities. The grandest one takes place at Plaza Mayor—a must-visit if you’re in Madrid over the holiday period. And hey, don’t forget our numa Script is waiting for you right in the middle of Madrid’s creative culture.
How does Christmas on the beach sound? There’s attractions, decorations and more in Seville’s stunning Christmas markets but the beautiful beach-front views in the middle of all the Christmas festivities is what takes the cake! It’s sure to be a Christmas season to remember if you add Seville to your destination list. Our numa sisters—Jondo, Molina and Solea have been said to offer the most soulful stay while you experience Seville,at any given time of year!
A personal favourite. It may not feel quite as “traditionally Spanish” at Christmastime as in many other cities. Still, there’s no doubt that Barcelona’s vibrancy and enthusiasm for the festive season will prove infectious for anyone visiting. The unique combination of inspirations from many other European countries makes Christmas in Barcelona unique, in the best way possible. The oddest yet iconic feature? The Caga Tio de Nadal mascot. Though the massive smiling face might prove a little unnerving to some, there’s no doubt that it makes Christmas in Barcelona a bright affair and is well worth a look if you’re in the city. Our numa Roca is the perfect spot to experience the authentic local flavour of Barcelona, especially during the Christmas season!
Spain is a traditionally hot and sunny country. With this in mind, you may be wondering whether Christmas is a good time of year to visit the country. In short: yes! Visiting Spain in winter will be a little cooler, but the country is still (usually) much warmer than what you’ll find otherwise in Europe. So, don’t miss out—make the most of every opportunity, no matter whether you’re staying cosy next to your fireplace and tree or if you’ve chosen to pay a visit to Spain for the festive period.
