Hosting an offsite meeting from time to time can help to inspire creativity and productivity in your team. Meetings that take place offsite require some planning and one of the most important factors influencing the success of your offsite meeting is the venue. It’s important to set a budget and decide on the overall objective of your offsite meeting. You’ll also want to check the amenities and facilities on offer from your chosen venue. A convenient location with ample parking is another crucial factor you need to consider in your planning. Alternatively, you could also arrange transport from the office. For help finding suitable offsite meeting rooms Sydney, submit your brief to us.
Are there two words more exciting than 'meeting' and 'room'? Okay so probably, yes. That doesn't mean, however, that your Sydney meeting has to be resigned to the dull back room of the office. Sydney is having a renaissance when it comes to innovative, inspiring meeting spaces and you can now book yours quickly and comfortably. So ditch the burnt coffee, discard the posture-ruining chair and check out our comprehensive guide to booking Sydney's ultimate meeting rooms.
Who's in the meeting?
This is a crucial question when it comes to booking a meeting room. Different venues have different benefits and some are better suited than others. An external meeting with a high-profile client will probably require a sleek, professional boardroom with the formal features of the classic meeting room done well. For internal meetings and more creative get together, you can afford to think outside the box. There are plenty of unconventional meeting rooms across the city. Brainstorm in a cinema with the Rydges Hotel The Cinema space, or impress with the well-lit and high-tech Blackwattle Room 1 at Park Royal Darling Harbour.
Size matters
There are plenty of Sydney meeting room spaces to choose from, whether you want a small, intimate space or something a bit bigger to impress clients. The most crucial thing is to consider the specific needs: 50 people for a training course? A large table for placing laptops? These things need to be in your head when planning a meeting. The venue will guide you, so go along and find out the best options for you and your business.
Budgeting for your Sydney meeting
Whilst a corporate meeting is a big deal, it's not good business sense to let costs run away from you. Setting a budget before you approach Sydney's best venues is a great way to stay on top of your spending and impress the finance team at work. We recommend setting a per-person budget, that way you can see where your money is going, and retain control over the macro and micro spending of every single meeting you plan. Our venue finder comes with a budget feature, so booking a great room is easier than ever.
Cutting the commute
Commuting is an unavoidable fact of life in every in-person meeting. Get on your colleagues' good side by booking a professional venue near a central transport hub. There are plenty of great meeting venues near Sydney’s Central Rail Station, so any out-of-towners won't have any trouble getting to the meeting on time. For those who don't travel in, ask about video and audio capabilities (or, even better, request them in your event brief) - that way no one will feel left out of your well-planned Sydney meeting room.
