    This looks like a pretty good deal.

    £99 from Manchester including flights and 3 nights B&B in what seems to be a 4 star hotel with pretty good trip advisor reviews.

    i was actually looking at this yesterday! and using expedia it's fairly reasonable to book berlin in december. i've personally booked 20-23 december for £200 but that was just for myself. when i looked for 2 people it brought the cost down to £152 per person.
    CCCC #33: £42/£240

    Head for Munich and thy can fill their boots with Christmas Markets from the front door of the airport.

    Public transport is fantstic for less able folk and will set them right in th middle of another big area of markets and all the surrounding/suburban towns have their local markets with a diferent air again. :)

    Thanks again for that deal. Went on live chat with them. The flights and hotel where sold out for the early dates. Best deal they could do for me was £150pp at a different hotel. Then an extra £25 per person for a shuttle bus from airport to hotel and from hotel to airport. Was a little more than I was hoping to pay.

    Had a check on expedia uk. For the same hotel the other company was offering and same flights was £102pp included breakfast each day. Also paid extra £32 for a shuttlebus for both of them. Other company wanted £25 each. Also paid £9 insurance. So total cost came to £245 for both of them. Which I don't think is bad at all really.

    Thanks all for the help really appreciate it. Also thanks @pogofish Munich or Frankfurt was what I was really hoping for. But after checking around the cheapest I was able to find was a little over £500 for the 2 of them.
