Venues Used - Hotels

Hotels come in all shapes, sizes and locations.  Some have very good meeting facilities and packages while some are better suited to functions and banquets.  Some are out in the country, while others are city-centre locations or right next to motorway junctions.  In keeping with our one-size-does-not-fit-all philosophy, we will take the time to understand your event before recommending a location.

Below are some general things to bear in mind although, of course, there will always be exceptions.  If we felt that your event objectives were not compatible with a certain hotel, we would not put it forward for consideration.  Of course, the final decision would be yours, but our responsibility to you would be to always offer our advice.

City Centre Hotels

Great if all your delegates are based in that city, and also very good for public transport access (depending on the city, of course).  Some hotels, especially the large international chains, have meeting packages that include a lot while others will offer a lower delegate rate but apply hire charges.

Airport Hotels

No surprises here, but these tend to be ideally suited to events with lots of international delegates who are making a quick visit to the country solely for this meeting.  For this reason, and given the location of the hotels so close to the airports, they are very good for the seasoned business traveller, since that is are who they welcome day in, day out.

Country House Hotels

 Larger country house hotels will make excellent retreats and will be fairly tranquil and, for that reason, are also very popular with leisure travellers.  Smaller hotels, especially those owned, operated and entirely staffed by family, can be quite delightful and very welcoming.  They can also be very flexible, due to the very short decision chain.
