Take a spin over to Harvard Square to pick up a few things and get into the spirit of the season at The Charles Hotel Holiday Market. Located in the outdoor courtyard, this annual bazaar features local vendors selling a variety of fantastic giftables – everything from handmade candles and art to specialty soaps and skincare. The market will run from 12:00-5:00pm on Saturdays December 9th & 16th. There’ll be seasonal drink offerings available for purchase at the Garden Bar (think: spiked hot chocolate) but you could also stop in to Henrietta’s Table for breakfast (7:00-11:00am) beforehand or brunch (12:00-3:00pm) during, or have drinks at Noir afterwards (4:00pm) to maximize you shopping and snacking opportunities.
