Conferences are places where businesses and peers come together to discuss issues and learn from others in their fields. Melbourne is one of the most bustling business hubs in Australia, and if you are going to be hosting a conference with people coming from all over, then a hotel is the spot for you. Hotels make the best places for conferences, as you will be able to host the event and make sure everyone has a convenient place to stay and also check out the city. Browse through our extensive collection of conference hotels and find the spot for your next meeting to bring minds and ideas together under one roof.
Some of our favourite conference hotels are:
Mercure North Melbourne - This is a flexible venue offering multiple spaces for meetings and conferences between 30 and 150 guests. It's conveniently located close to the railway station, the CBD, and the University of Melbourne.
Amora Hotel – Here you will find a larger conference space that is perfect for workshops and presentations. The space comes equipped with all of the AV gear you could need and loads of space for your guests to take in new skills in comfort.
Hotel Grand Chancellor – This is a medium-sized conference hall that has all of the amenities you could need. This space is great for hosting lectures in a theatre-style setting.
Planning a conference is no small undertaking. There will be people coming in from not only all of Australia, but also the world. Fortunately, hotels will have a dedicated staff to help you plan every detail of the conference when it comes to accommodation, catering, and the spaces itself. Outside of this, you are going to need to create an organised plan for things like scheduling your days, planning workshops, and deciding who will be speaking at your event.
Conference hotels are normally rented on a per session basis. This figure varies depending on the space and location, but you can expect to spend anywhere from $1000-$5000 on the space itself. This figure can also increase depending on the catering and accommodation for your guests.
