Meeting rooms are available at a wide variety of venues. However, the question that needs asking is whether it is more beneficial to use dedicated conference meeting rooms at a specialist venue or instead make use of meeting rooms at leisure venues such as hotels, golf clubs or even village halls.
To make the right decision in choosing a venue for your next meeting you will need to consider both the purpose and the desired outcome of the event. For example, if you are organising an intense management training programme it will probably be safe to say that you will want the delegates to work and learn in a focussed environment with no outside
interruptions. It also be accurate to assume that fully equipped conference meeting rooms with ample natural daylight and conference rooms within close proximity of the accommodation and catering facilities will be high on the agenda.
When you make use of conference facilities at a specialist venue that is exactly what you can expect fully equipped conference meeting rooms set within a peaceful environment that is conducive to learning and development with dedicated residential, catering and leisure facilities that is not open to leisure guests or the public.
If you are looking to book a venue for any conference, training programme or business meeting that require specialist conference meeting rooms and dedicated service to help you achieve those all important learning and development objectives, then carefully consider the following information.

Conference Meeting Rooms |
VS | Hotel Meeting Rooms |
|---|---|---|
| Dedicated conference meeting rooms are available to the trainer for 24 hours |
Hotel meeting rooms are often multi purpose function rooms that may be used for an evening function. | |
| Conference meeting rooms are designed with the trainer in mind to offer plenty of wall space for flipchart paper, pin up boards, ceiling mounted data projector, fixed screen and break-out rooms within a self contained area |
Some hotel function rooms are flexible space to accommodate both meetings and evening functions or even weddings and therefore any equipment need to be set up and in some cases it will not be allowed to use wall space depending on the décor. | |
| Specialist conference venues are not open to the public; therefore offering an environment free from interruptions. | Fully equipped conference meeting rooms mean no hidden extras for equipment hire. | |
| Conference venues can offer a three-course buffet in a dining room with working lunch options when required |
Hotels often offer standing lunches, the alternative would be sit down lunch in a public restaurant that does not allow for privacy. | |
| Hotels can not guarantee low noise levels or no interruptions |
Hotels often charge for every piece of equipment or hide it in the rates. |
