On Tuesday, three hotel groups and one independent venue, Peckforton Castle (pictured) came to visit our offices for a mini expo.
Starting with Peckforton Castle, Cheshire, this was built in the style of a medieval castle in 1850 and lends itself beautifully for events that will be remembered. The castle has spectacular rooms for meetings, conferences and private dining, and offers outdoor activities in the grounds along with the Land Rover Experiences. This gem is just 40 minutes from Manchester airport and an hour from the city of Manchester and half an hour from Chester. We were surprised by the very affordable day delegate rates for such a unique property.
The Sundial Group consists of three stunning country houses, Barnett Hill in Surrey, Highgate House in Northants and Woodside in Warwickshire. This award winning family business focuses on the personal touch and the attention to detail often overlooked in the corporate world. The brownies and cookies that they brought to office, which were baked by the Sundial chefs, helped to confirm our views that the food at the Sundial properties takes a lot of beating!
Hotel Republic discussed the many different hotel groups that they represent, mainly European hotels, including SANA, Movenpick and Kimpton in the UK. They only represent one hotel in the UK which is the Taj Hotel in London. From the traditional to the quirky the Hotel Republic includes a European hotel to cover every preference.
Finally Helen from the Prima Hotel Group gave us the details of their 5 properties, 4 of them luxury 4-star country houses in England and 1 property in the city centre of Edinburgh. Hellaby Hall, Quorn, Stanneylands and Nunsmere Hall all sit in their own grounds and have all the facilities available that you’d expect from a fine country manor hotel. Nunsmere Hall has its own lake and is available for exclusive hire. The city hotel, the Crowne Plaza, Edinburgh is a Georgian property on the Royal Terrace and offers a terraced garden for al fresco dining and drinks receptions.
Voted in numerous rankings as one of the best grand hotels in Europe, The Bayerischer Hof is one of Munich’s most legendary hotels. Situated in the heart of the city center the hotel is privately owned and has been family run since 1897.

Continuous renovations are made to the property, the latest being the roof garden which has been transformed into a breakfast space with stunning Munich views. The hotel has five restaurants — including the Michelin-starred Atelier and the world-famous Trader Vic’s — as well as six bars and cinema lounge.
The Bayerischer hotel has 40 air-conditioned banqueting and meeting suites, including about the impressive ballroom ensemble, for example, or the stunning salons in the Palais Montgelas and the Dachgarten (roof garden), offering a magnificent view of the city and the Alps. All of the 340 guest rooms are in a variety of styles, designed by famous architects. Top-floor suites have breathtaking views, private spa access, terraces or open fireplaces.
Located on 24th street and Madison Avenue, The New York EDITION sits directly across from New York’s Madison Square Park.

Report from the FRHI Global Meeting Exchange in Monte Carlo
Last week I attended the FRHI Global Meeting Exchange in Monte Carlo, with 110 other event planners from the UK, Europe, the UAE, Asia Pacific and the USA. The four-day event was a mixture of one-to-one meetings with representatives from Fairmont, Raffles and Swissotel properties, workshops, syndicates sessions and activities which showcased Monte Carlo. It was a great educational opportunity with corporate organisers, agents, hoteliers and DMCs discussing the challenges and changes in the MICE industry, exchanging information and discussing how we can work better together for the best outcome.
One of the highlights of this event was a presentation from Dr Gerard Lyons, Chief Economic Advisor to the Mayor of London, on the current state of the world economic and what we can expect in the future.
Whilst I was in Monte Carlo, I also took the opportunity to take a look a some of the key properties:
The Fairmont Hotel
This hotel is four-star and located next to the Casino. It is built over the sea and has great views of the city from the roof top. There are 18 meeting rooms, including a ballroom which will hold 900 people for a dinner or meeting. The Fairmont has 602 bedrooms, spa, Nikki Beach rooftop pool and fitness centre.
The Grimaldi Forum
This is Monaco’s conference and exhibition centre, located on the eastern beach. It is a glass pyramid and contemporary in style. The Grimaldi Forum can offer 3 auditoriums, 11 meeting rooms that can be divided into smaller sections (maximum 22) and 4 areas for exhibitions or catering. There are large foyer areas with centrally located escalators to move people around the building easily. The Fairmont, Le Meridien Beach and Monte Carlo Bay hotels are all within walking distance.
The Monte Carlo Bay Hotel
The Monte-Carlo Bay Hotel & Resort is located at the end of the eastern beach and surrounded by gardens and the sea. It is a 5-star hotel with 334 bedrooms, spa, swimming pool and restaurants. There are 15 flexible meeting rooms all on the first floor and the largest room has capacity for up to 270 people.
However, my trip to Monte Carlo wasn’t all work. There were two activity sessions: a treasure hunt around the rock, palace and harbour area which gave us the chance to see the city and the chance to explore the Cote d’Azur by rib boat and helicopter or in classic cars.
In the evenings we experienced three different venues, which are all available for groups. The Nikki Beach is on the roof of the Fairmont Monte with great views of the city and sea as well as the famous GP hairpin. There was gala dinner at the Oceanographic Museum, with a drinks reception in the aquarium and this venue has roof top space which can be used too. We also spent an evening at Key Largo, a private villa, which used to be the harbourmaster’s offices at the end of the quay. The drinks and food were arranged around the pool and the helipad was transformed in to party space and dance floor.
