Planning a work retreat

Australia has some of the most unforgettable hotels. You will usually find them situated in stunning surroundings with breath-taking views. These views can be experienced in any of their conference meeting rooms that tend to have floor to ceiling windows making it perfect for meetings that have to be held in warm weather. This is not the only option though. If you are looking for an elegant venue that has the simple beauty of the countryside incorporated with the metropolis of city life, you can still find hotels to meet your needs. So why should you consider hotels for your company's team building retreats?

You get a wide array of in-house venues to choose from

Countryside hotels will have a magnitude of unique features that could make the experience of your conference meeting all the more pleasurable. You could choose to hold your team building theatre style if the session requires your employees to all be seated. If you would prefer to have your conference in a banquet style instead, this is also possible. If that seems too big for the members of your business party, then you could request for smaller meeting rooms for your team building. Additionally, you could enquire if there are private suites that are available to double up as smaller conference rooms. Most of the hotels will put your convenience a priority and for this reason, you may find that they will also provide a PA system and AV equipment to make your conference meeting run smoothly. Others may have these electronics but may charge you for using them. To be on the safe side, you should make enquiries beforehand.

You can outsource event planning from the hotel

Most hotels have their own dedicated events team, which is great for companies who like to engage in team building activities. These events teams can ensure that all your needs for your team building exercises are met. This could prove invaluable if you have a hectic schedule and may not be able to fully concentrate on planning the conference. Having them handle all your conference needs will leave you free to take part in the conference without having to worry about the logistics that go in to the planning and execution. If you would prefer being hands on, they could offer you professional advice that will ensure your event runs without a hitch. You could also hand pick members of your own events team who could work hand in hand with the hotel's events team.
