The VIVA girls were treated to an evening down at the gorgeous boutique hotel Malmasion last week for an exclusive preview of their Christmas packages. The rooms – decked out with Christmas trees, glitter balls and fairy lights – looked like a fabulous place for a Christmas party, and certainly got us excited for the coming festive season!

As well as taking a peak at some of the Christmas stylings visitors will be able to enjoy, we also had the chance to try some of their delicious canapés and cocktails! Malmaison’s chief mixologist talked us through creating 2 of our very own festive drinks – the sweet treat Double Chocolate and a winter warming Apple Strudel – both of which we can highly recommend as a seasonal pick me up.
