Booking Meeting Rooms In Nottingham

The city of Nottingham may be small, but it is part of a much larger urban conurbation. It is of little wonder then that companies both large and small need meeting rooms in Nottingham to conduct business on a daily basis.

The city is best known for its connection with Robin Hood and is a popular tourist destination for people from across the world. However, Nottingham also became important during the Industrial Revolution, when Nottingham-made textiles and bicycles were exported across the globe. Nottingham Lace, and Raleigh and Sturmey-Archer bicycles continue to be household names today.
The need for meeting rooms in Nottingham is varied the city thrives on its diverse mix of small family names and large, multinational companies. However, Nottingham is slowly changing from an industrial city to one based on services tourism especially. For this reason, the best hotels are those which combine both business and recreational elements in the same environment. Our Holiday Inn hotel meeting rooms do just this.
Nottingham continues to offer excellent opportunities to up-and-coming entrepreneurs, as well as being a base for established companies. Meeting rooms in Nottingham have to cover a multitude of services, from training workshops, to international conferences, to the yearly Christmas beano.

We at Holiday Inn Meetings offer three superb suites that are ideal for all kinds of business meetings, providing theatre, boardroom, U-shape, classroom and small syndicate lay-outs. Our meeting rooms in Nottingham are especially useful for small to mid-size companies i.e. those least likely to have facilities of their own. It is fair to say that large, long-established international companies have very different needs to local firms with 100 or less staff.
Boots is, of course, the company everyone associates with Nottingham HM Revenue and Customs not having quite the same allure. As familiar as Maid Marion and Robin, the firm was founded by Jesse Boot, the 1st Lord of Trent, in 1849. In its heyday it was a research establishment, although its pharmaceutical operations have since passed into other hands. However, they live on in a different guise, thanks to the efforts of a group of former Boots scientists, and spin-off companies from the prestigious Nottingham universities. BioCity is the UKs largest biosciences centre, housing at least 30 scientific research companies. Nottingham was granted Science City status in 2005 as a result one of only 6 in the UK.

Today, more and more emphasis is being placed on research and development not only in the pure sciences, but in clinical medicine and digital technology as well. This is one more reason why smaller meeting rooms in Nottingham are needed. The more precision-led an industry is, the more it relies on intimate board-rooms and breakaway areas, rather than huge ballrooms and a loud sales pitch.

Yet in fact, businesses in Nottingham come in all shapes and sizes and they all need somewhere to meet. Vision Express, Siemens, the Gala Group and John Player and sons are just some of the companies needing meeting rooms in Nottingham on a regular basis. We at Holiday Inn Meetings are proud to be able to meet those needs.
