Stay at parents or air b & b

Christmas plans. Usually we would go to my parents and we cook and host. But my parents are in 80s now, not had a great health year and we have a puppy now. So 5 of us and puppy I think is too much. We don't have space to host them are ours. We live opposite ends of country.
I think we should do air b&b/ hotel then either cook in theirs or go out ( usually my brother & family abd a cousin etc come too) . Hubby thinks we just go stay as my parents love the chaos of the kids for a few days....

Parents says not sure, lots of money for air b n b etc ,
Other choice is to stay home, but no family near.

I'd stay in a hotel/air b & b. They would insist you stayed if they wanted that?

Go to air b and b.
less stressful.

Could you get air bnb but agree to stay at theirs the night before Christmas so they still get to enjoy the bustle and fun of Christmas morning?

Having the base will help you play it by ear maybe so if it's too much with the puppy you've got somewhere to retreat to.
