Conference hotels in Balatonalmádi

A convention centre, a lakeside resort and a guesthouse meeting room

Hunguest BÁL Resort on Bajcsy-Zsilinszky út runs a convention centre: the plenary hall takes up to 500 guests, and the adjoining section rooms add 80 places. The hotel also states conferences, weddings and wedding receptions, and the same hall seats a gala dinner or a large reception for 300. The hotel's own lakeside section is reached by a bridge, with free sun loungers and the Aqua Beach Bar.

Balatonalmádi Akadémiai Üdülő on Bajcsy-Zsilinszky út 1 is a resort hotel with a near-shore position and an in-house restaurant seating 65, presented for business lunches, negotiations, symposia and training sessions. Stan Pan panzio on József Attila út offers 13 guest rooms, a 35-person meeting room and a breakfast restaurant, with a closed, camera-monitored car park.

Matching the programme to the room

Start with the largest session of the day and work down. A 500-seat plenary needs plenary-style seating and a separate space for the smaller working groups, which the section rooms at Hunguest BÁL Resort can cover. If the day is mostly negotiations and training, the 65-seat restaurant at Akadémiai Üdülő or the 35-person meeting room at Stan Pan panzio fits a tighter group.

Meals belong in the brief from the start: set menus and a breakfast buffet at Akadémiai Üdülő, a breakfast restaurant at Stan Pan panzio. For a gala dinner or a reception, confirm the seated layout and the hall arrangement with the venue, since a space used for plenary sessions is set up differently for a dinner.

What to settle with the venue

The listings describe what each business is and which occasions it states itself. Private hire, the exact room setup and the catering terms are not part of that description, so confirm them with the venue before the programme is fixed.
