Let me introduce to You, my name is Rolf Hemmerling. These are the meeting places I visited / I was invited to, for participation in conferences, workshops and seminars. So if want to visit any of the locations or if you even want to organze an event, you may ask me for my impressions and my option, and I would be pleased to become your consultant.
.
In addition to this list I entered all places I ever visited on my graphical map at TripAdvisor.
Btw, I was told by sales staff in 2013, that the costs of a hotel event with lunch, per participant, are about 30 EUR - 40 EUR .
Some rules if you must book a hotel for an event:
Book the hotel first, immediately after you registered for the event.
Remember that you may cancel a hotel for free, if you book by an online hotel portal.
Remeber a hotel room won´t get less expensive, but might rise by 100% or more, if most rooms are booked in the hotel for the booking date ( and really just for the booking date, might be as cheap as expected at other days ).
If the hotel very-next to the event is too expensive, and no time to leave the event for check-in at a hotel more far away, think about traveling a day earlier just to do the check-in.
Reasons:
The checkin times might be so limited, e.g. 14:00-18:00.
Or there might be an social evening event of a conference, so that you must check-in at hotels far way after 22:00, which is often not possible.
Calculation:
Hotel room for 2 nights in the expensive hotel next to the event: 100 EUR * 2 = 200 EUR.
Hotel room for 3 nights in an inexpensive hotel far away from the event 50 EUR * 3 = 150 EUR plus some costs for local transportation. You may even select a cheap train on the travelling day, and use the day for sightseeing and / or a museum visit.
After the hotel booking, book the train. Remember if it is cheaper to check-in 1 day earlier, you must take a train 1 day earlier...
