This is what New Year's Eve feels like for us
We are consciously redesigning the turn of the year – closer to our philosophy: less program, less event, but more peace and quiet, more space, and genuine encounters. For us, the turn of the year is a quiet transition – very relaxed and without a party atmosphere. Accompanied by good food, warm water, and time and leisure for yourself. For everyone who likes a quiet New Year's Eve or wants to try it out for once.
Menu:
The last evening of the year is a high-quality restaurant evening in a relaxed atmosphere – clear and minimalist.
Spa:
Pools and saunas will remain open longer. You can also see in the New Year in the outdoor pool – accompanied by a glass of champagne, which we will serve shortly before midnight.
Fireworks:
The hotel grounds remain quiet at New Year's Eve. In Hallenberg, occasional private fireworks can be seen.
New Year's Day:
On January 1, you can enjoy a late-riser breakfast until 12:30 p.m. On the other days, breakfast is served as usual between 8:00 a.m. and 11:30 a.m.
Frequently asked questions about the New Year's Eve offer
Is there a party, dancing, or loud music on New Year's Eve?
No. We deliberately keep things quiet at the turn of the year. Instead of parties and loud music, the atmosphere is characterized by relaxed conversations, good food, and plenty of space for yourself—even in the bar area, it remains pleasantly quiet and sociable.
Is New Year's Eve still a social occasion for you?
Yes – and often even more sociable.
Since the evening is not concentrated in one large hall, guests naturally spread out throughout the hotel: in the restaurant areas, at the bar, in the lounges, or in between in the spa.
This creates many small, informal encounters and conversations – without loud noise or the pressure of a program. Those who want to can easily strike up a conversation; those seeking peace and quiet can just as easily retreat. It is precisely this freedom that many guests find particularly pleasant and connecting.
Who is this New Year's Eve offer particularly suitable for?
For guests who want to spend New Year's Eve in peace and quiet—with enjoyment, wellness, and pleasant tranquility instead of a party program.
What does New Year's Eve at DIEDRICH look like?
We serve a festive menu in our restaurant areas, in a relaxed, atmospheric setting. You can then round off the evening however you like—in the spa, at the bar, or completely on your own. The atmosphere in the hotel remains calm and relaxed throughout.
Will there be fireworks?
We deliberately refrain from setting off fireworks on the hotel grounds in order to preserve the peaceful and mindful atmosphere of the hotel. Occasional private fireworks may be seen in Hallenberg.
Is the wellness area open longer on New Year's Eve?
Yes. Pools, saunas, and relaxation areas are open until 1:00 a.m. on New Year's Eve—an invitation to experience the turn of the year in warm water or in complete tranquility.
What should I wear tonight?
Neat, relaxed clothing is ideal. The important thing is that you feel comfortable.
Adults only?
Our hotel is for adults only, aged 16 and above. This policy contributes to the peaceful atmosphere, especially around the turn of the year.
Which drinks are included?
Water is free of charge – even with meals. On New Year's Eve, a glass of champagne is naturally included to celebrate the turn of the year. You can choose other drinks as you wish.
When is the latest I can cancel?
The cancellation conditions for this offer apply (see above). We strongly recommend that you take out travel cancellation insurance.
