101 Ways, 1 Gift: Find their kind of Christmas present

Sunday lunch with your parents, and time to catch up

If your parents have a favourite place for lunch, a dining voucher gives them a reason to return. At Tullamore Court Hotel in County Offaly, The Court Bar & Restaurant offers a popular carvery alongside lunch and dinner, making its cash gift voucher a useful choice for parents who enjoy gathering around the table.

For parents in Monaghan, a PK’s Bar & Bistro voucher at Hillgrove Hotel & Spa can go towards a meal close to home. You could make the gift a little more personal by adding a note promising to join them, especially if finding time together has been difficult this year.

A few days together in Killarney National Park

When a few days together have been on the wish list for months, a hotel voucher can help turn the conversation into plans. At Muckross Park Hotel & Spa, a five-star stay in Killarney National Park gives you time for woodland walks before returning for dinner at Yew Tree Restaurant.

Choose a Muckross monetary voucher to contribute towards their stay, or a Yew Tree Restaurant cash gift voucher if dinner is what you have in mind. A note about the walk you would like to take together makes the intention behind the gift clear, while leaving the dates open.

For someone who plans their weekends around food

For the person who reads the menu before booking the hotel, begin with the restaurant. An Ember gift voucher at Kilkenny Hibernian Hotel puts dinner at the centre of the gift, with the city’s medieval streets and independent shops giving them a reason to arrive early.

If they prefer lunch beside the water, The Marina Club at Radisson Blu Hotel Athlone has its own cash gift voucher for dining overlooking the River Shannon. For someone in East Cork, The Brasserie at Radisson Blu Hotel Cork in Little Island offers another option for a meal that does not require a weekend away.
Restaurant cash vouchers contribute their chosen value towards the bill, so you can select an amount that suits your budget without choosing the menu for them.

A spa visit for the friend who rarely takes time for themselves

If a friend has been saying they need a day to themselves, look at a spa voucher somewhere they can reach easily. The Spa at Hillgrove in Monaghan and the spas at Radisson Blu Hotel & Spa Limerick and Radisson Blu Hotel & Spa Sligo offer monetary vouchers towards treatments and experiences.

For someone who would enjoy making a trip of it, The Spa at Muckross adds the setting of Killarney National Park. Choose a dedicated spa voucher if that is the experience you want to give, then let them select a treatment that suits them. Check the treatment price and any access arrangements before deciding how much to spend.

Give the family a few days away together

A contribution towards a family break can be a welcome Christmas gift for parents who would love a few days away with the children. At Radisson Blu Hotel & Spa Limerick, the Paddocks Open Farm, fairy garden and playground give younger guests plenty to explore within the hotel grounds.

Hillgrove Hotel & Spa in Monaghan is another option for families, with a swimming pool, playground and Explorers Kids Club during school holidays.
A hotel monetary voucher leaves parents free to arrange their visit around school dates and choose the room or package that fits their family. Activities and inclusions depend on the stay booked.

For someone whose dog goes everywhere with them

For someone who plans every trip with their dog in mind, a gift towards a stay where both are welcome shows you

have thought about how they like to travel. The iNUA Collection offers dog-friendly stays at Radisson Blu Hotel Cork, Radisson Blu Hotel & Spa Limerick and voco® Belfast, giving them a choice of exploring East Cork, spending time in Limerick’s green surroundings or discovering Belfast from the Gasworks district beside the River Lagan.

Choose a voucher accepted by their preferred hotel and add a suggestion for their next trip together. Each hotel has its own dog-friendly room arrangements and charges, so check these alongside the voucher’s redemption terms before buying.

For the person whose next trip is still undecided

If they love exploring Ireland but are hard to buy for, an iNUA Collection monetary voucher gives them a reason to plan their next break. They can put it towards a stay at Radisson Blu Hotel & Spa Sligo while discovering the northwest, a city weekend at Kilkenny Hibernian, or time beside the Shannon at Radisson Blu Hotel Athlone, with eligible dining and spa experiences offering more ways to enjoy their gift at participating hotels. Mention somewhere they have been meaning to visit in your card, while leaving the destination, dates, and plans to them.
