Classic or Customized, Holiday Parties at the Munich Marriott Hotel Are Cause for Celebration

MUNICH, GERMANY--(Marketwired - Dec 17, 2013) - For anyone who thinks the office Christmas party has to be predictable, it's time to book one at the Munich Marriott Hotel. Gone are the bland decorations, the inadequate snacks and the baffling playlist compiled by the company's IT technician. Instead, this cosmopolitan property has developed three distinct packages that let groups customize their holiday celebrations.

Each Christmas party package at this hotel in North Munich starts with the basics. Event planners don't need to worry about skimping on things like wine in order to afford the space because every package includes the space rental fee, a choice of buffet or plated meals and a selection of red and white wines, beer and soft drinks. From there, the event-management team designs customized menu cards and provides recommendations for bands, photographers and artists who can perfect the celebration. And for groups of 50 or more people who need ample space to celebrate, the dance floor, stage and sound system are included as well.

The setup, however, is where the similarities among the party packages end. In a bold departure from other hotels in Munich's Schwabing borough, this property lets event organizers choose from Classic, Mountain Magic and Movie Night Packages.

Guests who select the Classic Package will begin the evening with mulled wine on the terrace. This seasonally festive start is followed up by offerings from one of Munich's best and newly renovated steakhouses, grill93. These culinary indulgences unfold against a backdrop of glittering Christmas decorations and music for a cozy, traditional party experience.

Groups who prefer more gastronomically adventurous fare should opt for the Mountain Magic Package, which transports people on a culinary journey through Bavaria. Guests can nosh on Bavarian delicacies ranging from homemade Obazda, to traditional Bavarian pancakes, known as Kaiserschmarrn, as they celebrate together.

Unique among other Munich business hotels, this property has also put together a glamorous Movie Night Package. After a champagne reception, guests visit live cooking stations that have been developed according to the themes of the greatest movies of our time. Celebrants can set sail on the Titanic, for example, with Pecten scallops and shrimps, before concluding the meal with a dessert selection inspired by "Moulin Rouge".

Whether classic or customized, parties at the Munich Marriott Hotel are designed to let guests celebrate the way they like. Choice, after all, can be the greatest gift one receives this holiday season.
