If your client is looking for a city centre location then you cannot get much better than The Queens Hotel which situated adjacent to the train station and a stone’s throw away from the city centre. There are 16 meeting rooms in total, which vary from small boardrooms for 6 delegates to the Queens Ballroom which is suitable for 500.

The Royal Armouries museum is located in the New Dock area of Leeds, a short distance away from the city centre, and is a really pleasant surprise! In the museum there is a two-tier lecture theatre, The Bury Lecture Theatre, which can seat up to 250 delegates – it is comfortable, stylish and contains top of the range A.V. equipment. There is also the grand Royal Armouries Hall, which can accommodate 1000 delegates in a reception style. As well as a few other suites and galleries, specific sections of the museum are available to hire, such as the War Gallery or the Oriental Gallery – any of these sections would make really interesting options for themed events or dinners. Across the road from the museum there is New Dock Hall, which is Leeds’ largest banqueting and exhibition venue, which can seat 1200 delegates in theatre style. It has no pillars and is essentially a blank canvas for large events. Set up for dinners it really is stunning.  The displays in the museum revolve around war and weaponry, and whilst the museum does not promote war, it may be a sensitive issue for some companies.

Leeds College of Music is located in a very trendy area of the city, right by the BBC building, and is walking distance from the train station and city centre. The largest space is a state of the art 350-seat auditorium, which is suitable for a number of different events. As you can imagine, the auditorium is kitted out with theatre standard lighting and sound equipment as well as a projector and motorised screen. In addition to this, there is the slightly smaller Recital Room, which has retractable raked seating for up to 120 people. There are also a number of classrooms and meeting rooms that are for hire. It is a working college, so during term time there will be students in the communal areas of the building.

The meeting spaces at The Tetley are in the former headquarters of Tetley’s Brewery, including the Board Room, which is complete with historic furnishings and paintings of former Tetley’s chairmen. A great effort has been made to retain many of the original features of the building, resulting in an art-deco type feel. There are 4 meeting spaces, with the largest being able to seat 100 delegate’s theatre style and although the décor remains traditional, the rooms are all fitted with the latest AV equipment. A perk to booking a meeting at The Tetley is that the venue has recently been refurbished as a contemporary art gallery, so delegates can visit the exhibitions during break times. Car parking is located next to the venue (Brewery Car Park) but is chargeable.

Horizon Leeds is a creation of NHS Employers and is focussed on using state of the art and innovative technology to provide interesting and functional meeting spaces. There are three meeting spaces all with natural daylight, air conditioning and integrated electronically branded welcome points. Technology is key at Horizon Leeds, and the rooms are full of useful tools to help meetings run as smoothly as possible, including smart boards and video conferencing facilities. In addition to this, the venue has quirky additional perks, like lockable trays with chargers in, so delegates can leave their devices charging without worry. I think Horizon Leeds would be a fantastic choice for organisers who are looking for something innovative and exciting. There are different rates for Government companies and private companies, however, both are competitive for the area.

Across the road from the museum there is New Dock Hall, which is Leeds’ largest banqueting and exhibition venue, which can seat 1200 delegates in theatre style. It has no pillars and is essentially a blank canvas for large events. Set up for dinners it really is stunning.  The displays in the museum revolve around war and weaponry, and whilst the museum does not promote war, it may be a sensitive issue for some companies.

The Queens Hotel

If your client is looking for a city centre location then you cannot get much better than The Queens Hotel which situated adjacent to the train station and a stone’s throw away from the city centre. There are 16 meeting rooms in total, which vary from small boardrooms for 6 delegates to the Queens Ballroom which is suitable for 500. There is an art deco style decor that runs throughout the hotel and meeting rooms. The meeting spaces are served by 215 spacious bedrooms. The décor is very traditional, this may not be to every organisers taste.

Park Plaza Leeds

This venue boasts a lovely city centre location and overlooks City Square. The hotel has 187 bedrooms which range from Superior rooms to Penthouse Suites, all of which are very modern and decorated in a contemporary style. Park Plaza Leeds has two dedicated conference floors which contain 11 flexible meeting rooms with capacities ranging from 30 – 180 theatre style. There is also the Chino Latino Restaurant and Bar as well as the Scene! Lobby Bar, so delegates have some choices if they wish to remain inside the hotel of an evening. All of the meeting rooms have natural daylight.   

Rose Bowl – Leeds Beckett University

The Rose Bowl is a state of the art development within Leeds Beckett University which offers the latest in conference facilities. It is home to a very modern auditorium which can seat 256 delegates as well as smaller meeting spaces that can seat 20 delegates in a board room lay out. As you would expect from such a new development, the meeting spaces are kitted out with the very latest in A.V. equipment, such as projectors, permanent screens and free WiFi. Although there are no bedrooms on site, out of term time the Rose Bowl is able to use the student accommodation if necessary.Many of the meeting rooms and the accommodation are only available outside of term time.

The Leeds Club is one of Leeds’ most historic buildings- it is Grade II listed and acted as a private members’ club for over 150 years. The Club itself is located directly in the centre of Leeds, close to the train station and a number of surrounding hotels (the Club has no bedrooms on-site). There are 9 meeting rooms which are all decorated in a similar style- think traditional décor with period features- and the two largest meeting rooms can seat 160 theatre style. Due to the age of the building there are no lifts and therefore the majority of the venue is not wheelchair accessible. The venue does however have a planning application in progress to rectify this.

Horizon Leeds

Horizon Leeds is a creation of NHS Employers and is focussed on using state of the art and innovative technology to provide interesting and functional meeting spaces. There are three meeting spaces all with natural daylight, air conditioning and integrated electronically branded welcome points. Technology is key at Horizon Leeds, and the rooms are full of useful tools to help meetings run as smoothly as possible, including smart boards and video conferencing facilities. In addition to this, the venue has quirky additional perks, like lockable trays with chargers in, so delegates can leave their devices charging without worry. I think Horizon Leeds would be a fantastic choice for organisers who are looking for something innovative and exciting. There are different rates for Government companies and private companies, however, both are competitive for the area.

The Tetley

The meeting spaces at The Tetley are in the former headquarters of Tetley’s Brewery, including the Board Room, which is complete with historic furnishings and paintings of former Tetley’s chairmen. A great effort has been made to retain many of the original features of the building, resulting in an art-deco type feel. There are 4 meeting spaces, with the largest being able to seat 100 delegate’s theatre style and although the décor remains traditional, the rooms are all fitted with the latest AV equipment. A perk to booking a meeting at The Tetley is that the venue has recently been refurbished as a contemporary art gallery, so delegates can visit the exhibitions during break times. Car parking is located next to the venue (Brewery Car Park) but is chargeable.

The Venue Leeds – Leeds College of Music

Leeds College of Music is located in a very trendy area of the city, right by the BBC building, and is walking distance from the train station and city centre. The largest space is a state of the art 350-seat auditorium, which is suitable for a number of different events. As you can imagine, the auditorium is kitted out with theatre standard lighting and sound equipment as well as a projector and motorised screen. In addition to this, there is the slightly smaller Recital Room, which has retractable raked seating for up to 120 people. There are also a number of classrooms and meeting rooms that are for hire. It is a working college, so during term time there will be students in the communal areas of the building.

Royal Armouries

The Royal Armouries museum is located in the New Dock area of Leeds, a short distance away from the city centre, and is a really pleasant surprise! In the museum there is a two-tier lecture theatre, The Bury Lecture Theatre, which can seat up to 250 delegates – it is comfortable, stylish and contains top of the range A.V. equipment. There is also the grand Royal Armouries Hall, which can accommodate 1000 delegates in a reception style.

Oulton Hall is set in a stunning countryside location roughly 7 miles from Leeds train station and close to both the M62 and M1. The venue itself is a striking 18th century former family mansion surrounded by landscaped gardens and 27 holes of golfing. There are 152 bedrooms that are decorated in-keeping with the traditional atmosphere of the façade and lobby area. There is a total of 9 meeting rooms on site, with capacities ranging from 10 delegates in the Perkins Suite, all the way up to 350 delegates in the Oulton Suite.  Oulton Hall would be a fantastic option for delegates who are looking for a countryside location with close proximity to a major city .The bedrooms are in various stages of refurbishment, so it may be worth checking that VIP’s and other important delegates are placed in fully refurbished rooms.

The Club itself is located directly in the centre of Leeds, close to the train station and a number of surrounding hotels (the Club has no bedrooms on-site). There are 9 meeting rooms which are all decorated in a similar style- think traditional décor with period features- and the two largest meeting rooms can seat 160 theatre style. Due to the age of the building there are no lifts and therefore the majority of the venue is not wheelchair accessible. The venue does however have a planning application in progress to rectify this.

Horizon Leeds

Horizon Leeds is a creation of NHS Employers and is focussed on using state of the art and innovative technology to provide interesting and functional meeting spaces. There are three meeting spaces all with natural daylight, air conditioning and integrated electronically branded welcome points. Technology is key at Horizon Leeds, and the rooms are full of useful tools to help meetings run as smoothly as possible, including smart boards and video conferencing facilities. In addition to this, the venue has quirky additional perks, like lockable trays with chargers in, so delegates can leave their devices charging without worry. I think Horizon Leeds would be a fantastic choice for organisers who are looking for something innovative and exciting. There are different rates for Government companies and private companies, however, both are competitive for the area.

The Tetley

The meeting spaces at The Tetley are in the former headquarters of Tetley’s Brewery, including the Board Room, which is complete with historic furnishings and paintings of former Tetley’s chairmen. A great effort has been made to retain many of the original features of the building, resulting in an art-deco type feel. There are 4 meeting spaces, with the largest being able to seat 100 delegate’s theatre style and although the décor remains traditional, the rooms are all fitted with the latest AV equipment. A perk to booking a meeting at The Tetley is that the venue has recently been refurbished as a contemporary art gallery, so delegates can visit the exhibitions during break times. Car parking is located next to the venue (Brewery Car Park) but is chargeable.

The Venue Leeds – Leeds College of Music

Leeds College of Music is located in a very trendy area of the city, right by the BBC building, and is walking distance from the train station and city centre. The largest space is a state of the art 350-seat auditorium, which is suitable for a number of different events. As you can imagine, the auditorium is kitted out with theatre standard lighting and sound equipment as well as a projector and motorised screen. In addition to this, there is the slightly smaller Recital Room, which has retractable raked seating for up to 120 people. There are also a number of classrooms and meeting rooms that are for hire. It is a working college, so during term time there will be students in the communal areas of the building.

Royal Armouries

The Royal Armouries museum is located in the New Dock area of Leeds, a short distance away from the city centre, and is a really pleasant surprise! In the museum there is a two-tier lecture theatre, The Bury Lecture Theatre, which can seat up to 250 delegates – it is comfortable, stylish and contains top of the range A.V. equipment. There is also the grand Royal Armouries Hall, which can accommodate 1000 delegates in a reception style. As well as a few other suites and galleries, specific sections of the museum are available to hire, such as the War Gallery or the Oriental Gallery – any of these sections would make really interesting options for themed events or dinners. Across the road from the museum there is New Dock Hall, which is Leeds’ largest banqueting and exhibition venue, which can seat 1200 delegates in theatre style. It has no pillars and is essentially a blank canvas for large events. Set up for dinners it really is stunning.  The displays in the museum revolve around war and weaponry, and whilst the museum does not promote war, it may be a sensitive issue for some companies.

The Queens Hotel

If your client is looking for a city centre location then you cannot get much better than The Queens Hotel which situated adjacent to the train station and a stone’s throw away from the city centre. There are 16 meeting rooms in total, which vary from small boardrooms for 6 delegates to the Queens Ballroom which is suitable for 500. There is an art deco style decor that runs throughout the hotel and meeting rooms. The meeting spaces are served by 215 spacious bedrooms. The décor is very traditional, this may not be to every organisers taste.

Park Plaza Leeds

This venue boasts a lovely city centre location and overlooks City Square. The hotel has 187 bedrooms which range from Superior rooms to Penthouse Suites, all of which are very modern and decorated in a contemporary style. Park Plaza Leeds has two dedicated conference floors which contain 11 flexible meeting rooms with capacities ranging from 30 – 180 theatre style. There is also the Chino Latino Restaurant and Bar as well as the Scene! Lobby Bar, so delegates have some choices if they wish to remain inside the hotel of an evening. All of the meeting rooms have natural daylight.   

Rose Bowl – Leeds Beckett University

The Rose Bowl is a state of the art development within Leeds Beckett University which offers the latest in conference facilities. It is home to a very modern auditorium which can seat 256 delegates as well as smaller meeting spaces that can seat 20 delegates in a board room lay out. As you would expect from such a new development, the meeting spaces are kitted out with the very latest in A.V. equipment, such as projectors, permanent screens and free WiFi. Although there are no bedrooms on site, out of term time the Rose Bowl is able to use the student accommodation if necessary.Many of the meeting rooms and the accommodation are only available outside of term time.

Daisy Goddard visited Leeds recently to check out the best hotels and venues the city has to offer.  Take a look at her site visits and which venues would be suitable for your events

Oulton Hall

Oulton Hall is set in a stunning countryside location roughly 7 miles from Leeds train station and close to both the M62 and M1. The venue itself is a striking 18th century former family mansion surrounded by landscaped gardens and 27 holes of golfing. There are 152 bedrooms that are decorated in-keeping with the traditional atmosphere of the façade and lobby area. There is a total of 9 meeting rooms on site, with capacities ranging from 10 delegates in the Perkins Suite, all the way up to 350 delegates in the Oulton Suite.  Oulton Hall would be a fantastic option for delegates who are looking for a countryside location with close proximity to a major city .The bedrooms are in various stages of refurbishment, so it may be worth checking that VIP’s and other important delegates are placed in fully refurbished rooms.

With 202 such events, the Austrian capital ranked after Paris (214) and ahead of Madrid (200). Christian Mutschlechner, Director of the Vienna Tourist Board’s Vienna Convention Bureau, commented: “We are very excited that Vienna has regained a top position, and congratulate Paris on taking first place. This latest success also reflects the growth that the Vienna conference industry was able to achieve in 2014. This survey is an important trend barometer for the Vienna Convention Bureau, and a benchmark showing Vienna’s position in the global marketplace.” Berlin ranked in fourth place in the ICCA rankings (193), followed by the cities Barcelona (182), London (166), Singapore (142), Amsterdam (133), Istanbul (130) and Prague (118).

Visit To The Park Inn By Radisson York

I recently took a trip to the Park Inn by Radisson York which is located on the banks of the River Ouse within a short walk of the centre of York.  

This modern hotel offers excellent conferencing facilities for up to 400 delegates and makes a great place to stay for leisure. The hotel has 13 meeting rooms, the largest being the Henley Suite which takes 300 people in theatre style, 160 cabaret style or 200 for a dinner. The adjacent room, the Regatta Suite, can be used in conjunction with the Henley to boost conference numbers or for private registration, refreshments and exhibition space.  Alternatively the Regatta Suite, which directly overlooks the river, provides a lovely location for dinners up to 60 guests. The bedrooms, some with views over the river, are modern with bright contemporary colours.  Similar in style the RGB Grill & Bar, with a mixture of high and low comfortable seating, also overlooks the river and is the hub of the hotel with Costa Coffee and refreshments served all day. A large proportion of the hotel’s meeting space is currently undergoing refurbishment and this is expected to be finished at the end of June 2015.
