THE MAGIC OF OUR MEETING MAKERS

There’s no denying that the demand for face-to-face meetings is returning. In fact, we asked top meeting bookers here in the UK what their plans are for meetings in this Covid-era, and 80% said they are planning to book more hotel meetings over the next 12 months – a significantly higher figure than for any other type of meeting venue.

So why hotel meeting rooms over other venues?

“Everything runs smoothly”, “responsiveness to needs” and “service standards” were their top responses.

Delivering event expertise, our Meeting Makers are on hand to meticulously plan, coordinate and host your meetings, taking the stress off your desk so you can focus on the rest of your to-do list.

We caught up with Mandi Gwynne – head Meeting Maker at the newly renovated Cardiff Marriott Hotel for her insight and expert tips on event planning perfection.

What does being a Meeting Maker mean to you?

It’s all about making sure our guests have a memorable event – whether it’s a small meeting, or a conference for 200 people. This requires planning and plenty of discussions. It’s my passion to make every guest feel welcome and – more importantly – to exceed their expectations.

What makes Cardiff Marriott meetings special?

The main difference is the relationship we build with the client, which lets us create something that’s perfect for them. Our flexible meeting and event packages do just that. I see events through from initial enquiry to final details. We care as much about our clients’ events as they do.

And when you host a meeting with us, you’ll earn Marriott Bonvoy Events points that you can redeem for free stays at Marriott Bonvoy hotels around the world.

Tell us more about the new Cardiff Marriott Hotel meeting spaces

The refurbishment took 1 year and we’ve now got more bedrooms and a beautiful new event space that can accommodate 400 people.

The design incorporates details that reflect the city. Cardiff is a such great place for an event, with the castle, great shops and restaurants all within walking distance, so we really celebrate that within the hotel.
