The Romantic Seehotel Jaegerwirtz in Austria was targeted; they were unable to use their registration system and guests were locked out of their hotel rooms.

Malaga offers great value for money, fantastic local dishes and wines, lots of accommodation options and lots to do and see. The city is very clean, the centre is completely pedestrianised and very safe. Whether it’s a beach holiday, a cultural trip or a corporate event Malaga has so much to offer all year round. It’s a really good alternative to Barcelona for those with a lower budget or wanting a more traditional Spanish experience.

Whilst there, I visited a variety of hotels and venues. The 4* Barcelo Malaga Hotel is just a 10-minute walk from both the old town and the seafront with direct access to the new railway station and commercial centre. I also looked at the Vincci Posada Del Patio, one of only two 5 star hotels and boutique in style. The Gran Hotel Miramar is the other 5-star hotel reopened after a 2-year renovation project in January 2017 right next to the beach and a short walk from the historical city centre. Castillo de Sant Catalina is a palace of Moorish revival style built in 1932 which has now become a boutique hotel. The Malaga Trade and Congress Centre provides space for a wide range of events and exhibitions.
More unusual venues include The Automobile Museum which has a conference room and the museum can be used for drinks receptions and dinners. Located in the narrow back streets of the old city the Hamman Al Andalus is the essence of the ancient Arab Baths of Al Andalus. There are 5 thermal baths and it can be hired exclusively for groups. The Hacienda Del Alamo feels like you are in an oasis of peace and calm a million miles from the city rather than a mere 10 min drive from the city centre and offers wine tasting and dinners, as well as conference space. Picasso was born in Malaga and the Picasso Museum Malaga opened in 2003. La Conception Botanic Garden has a house that can be hired for private events and patios and terraces around the house can be used for dinners and corporate events. The Russian Museum Malaga was formerly a tobacco factory erected in 1920’s and has an area for drinks receptions.
The only Michelin star restaurant is Jose Carlos Garcia Restaurant located in the newly developed port area and I also tried El Pimpi, one of the most popular traditional Tapas restaurants. Located in the old town Patios de Beatas Restaurant is a winery, a restaurant and events spaces.

For those, who like me, have not visited the City for a few years, you will be amazed by how it has changed. Chic boutiques, gastrobars, and cool cafes have sprung up amongst the traditional tapas bars in the quaint narrow street of the old town. The waterfront the old port has been developed with a promenade, bars, restaurants and shops and the port is a regular stop for cruises.
Looming over the city are two massive hilltop citadels, The Alcazba and ruined Gilbralfaro look down on the cathedral nicknamed La Manquita (the one-armed lady), because one of its towers has never been built. New cultural centres include the Malaga Museum, the Russian Museum and the Pompidou Centre. Whilst there is a great deal to see and do in Malaga it is also a pick to kick back, enjoy the sunshine and the laid-back Mediterranean lifestyle.
The weather in this region is rarely cold and the area tend to only have rain on between 10-20 days a year, even it December and January it can be warm enough to sit outside at the pavement cafes and bars.
The airport is the fourth busiest in Spain after Barcelona, Madrid and Palma Mallorca. The Malaga Costa del Sol Airport has flight connections to over 60 countries worldwide with 16.6 million passengers passing through in 2016. The airport is a mere 10 min transfer to the city centre. High speed trains from the new railway station provide access to Madrid in 2.5 hours and Barcelona in 4 hours.
Malaga offers great value for money, fantastic local dishes and wines, lots of accommodation options and lots to do and see. The city is very clean, the centre is completely pedestrianised and very safe. Whether it’s a beach holiday, a cultural trip or a corporate event Malaga has so much to offer all year round. It’s a really good alternative to Barcelona for those with a lower budget or wanting a more traditional Spanish experience.

A city with a population of 600,000 located on the south coast of Spain, Malaga for many is just the gateway to the Costa del Sol. A world away from the adjoining Costa del Sol it’s a historic and culturally rich city which has recently emerged as the provinces city of culture with its so called “mile of art” being compared to Madrid and it’s fine dining to Barcelona.

The Langley hotel is due to open in June 2018 and is located on the Duke of Marlborough’s former Buckinghamshire estate. It will be run by the same owners as the Wellesley Knightsbridge as a member of Marriott’s Luxury Collection brand.
The Langley is on the Langley Park estate and the buildings date from 1756. It will be converted from two a Grade II listed buildings. One is the former hunting lodge of the Duke of Marlborough and the other was the stables and a brew house.
The hotel will have 41 bedrooms and one meeting room. It is surrounded by grounds originally landscaped by Capability Brown and there will be a spa with eight treatment rooms, a fitness centre, restaurant and bar.
The Langley will become the Luxury Collection’s fifth hotel in the UK as well as the Wellesley Knightsbridge, Westbury and Park Tower hotels in London, and Trump Turnberry in Ayrshire.
I recently supported one of our clients on site and they’ve introduced Cvent’s On Arrival Technology to make the process of checking in at event registration easier and faster.
It was really quick for the attendees themselves to search by name on an iPad, find their details, preview their badge and print it. The iPads are wirelessly connected to the printers, so the attendees took their own and put them in the badge holder and collected a lanyard.
From the staffing perspective, it saved pre-printing and badge preparation, it was quicker than finding a badge laid out on the desk and the attendees enjoyed the experience. The registration desk was clean and tidy, it was easy to make a change to the badge before printing and creating a duplicate followed the same simple procedure. There was no waste of badges being prepared for people who didn’t turn up.
The technology connects to the event app and automatically checks people in to the event. There is a counter, so we could see exactly how many people had arrived and who they were, as well as knowing who hadn’t. By using the app, the attendees could contact their colleagues, without coming back to the registration desk to check whether they were actually there!
The 96-room Admiralty Arch Waldorf Astoria London – the British capital’s first hotel under the Hilton luxury brand – will be built in the iconic Admiralty Arch building, which once housed the offices of James Bond creator Ian Fleming. The hotel, scheduled to open in 2022, will have three restaurants, a spa and a rooftop bar offering sweeping views across London’s skyline. The meeting space has yet to be defined. The historic building – which opened in 1912 and served as admiralty offices, residences of senior naval officers and Ian Fleming’s offices – was designed by Aston Webb, who also designed Buckingham Palace’s facade.
Marriott International’s W lifestyle brand will occupy adjacent 19th century buildings in Rome. The redeveloped property is slated to open in 2021. The 159-room W Rome will be in the city’s Via Veneto district near the Spanish Steps and Via Condotti. The buildings were originally residences and subsequently served as a hotel, offices and government ministries.
