Continuous service since 1988 – there have been many operating challenges since the end of the pandemic in 2021. With venue admin colleagues often working from home with varying hours, replies are sometimes answered out of the normal working hours from 9-5. With telephones being answered less often the transformative ways of working with just as much speed is how we help our clients simplify the process of getting meeting space booked and confirmed.

(*Group sizes – 10 plus delegates for one day to 5 day residential meetings)

London adds close to 7,000 bedrooms between 2017 and Q1 2018 – Try our venue finding service for something different.

New York, followed by Geneva, Zurich, Paris, Washington, and Monaco, with London* dropping to sixth place (in Europe*) due to strong currency fluctuations, healthy new supply, extreme weather, and Brexit – resulting in a 4.8% decline in average occupancy.

18 hours of darkness presents a different type of opportunity for a conference organizer at this time of year, and being famous for its Nobel Peace Prize presentations, it is busy. The famous place offers great winter activities only half an hour from the city center. If you want your group to get away from it all, and experience the chill of the Northern Hemisphere, GSC can help you.

Outlook

Safety, ease of access, and high standards, with prices that reflect quality of service – these are key selling points.

Base factors come down to number of square meters, local property prices, and popularity of location. Big events, amenities and levels of service are the “ups” of influencing price.

Ask us. It is a question we are asked a lot, and with our experience it is one we like answering. Imagine if you wanted an option to have your meeting held in a luxury tent in a remote spot, or on a luxury yacht? We would ask you for your preferred location, style, and content, and have it arranged quickly to suit you, with just a few additional questions to complete the picture, to fulfill your desire to have satisfied delegates and guests. We like giving our clients “choice” with great results.

There are so many items that get posted to a conference bill. We have become used to checking and scrutinizing the ones that sometimes get overlooked, helping clients save money and time, and in so doing helping venues present clearer, more transparent bills that our clients can understand.
