Hotel Blog

Organising an effective seminar starts with a strategic choice: a venue that is accessible, functional, and pleasant for bringing teams together. Just moments from Paris-CDG International Airport, the Van der Valk Hotel offers an ideal setting. Here are 5 key tips to make your event a success

1. Choose a location that is easily accessible for all participants

The first criterion for a successful seminar is its location.
Just a few minutes from the Roissy terminals and the Paris Nord Villepinte Exhibition Centre, the Van der Valk Hotel Paris CDG Airport offers exceptional accessibility. Shuttles, direct road access, proximity to transport—your colleagues save valuable time as soon as they arrive. A decisive advantage, especially for teams spread across France or Europe.

2. Opt for flexible spaces that adapt to your format

Strategic meeting, study day, collaborative workshop, executive committee… every event has specific needs. The hotel’s 20 rooms offer various configurations: theatre, U-shape, cabaret, breakout rooms.
Elegant furniture, natural daylight, modern equipment—everything is designed to encourage creativity and comfort. The modularity allows seamless transitions from plenary sessions to smaller working groups.

3. Provide gourmet breaks to boost group energy

One of the secrets to an effective seminar? High-quality breaks.
On-site, the Apollo Restaurant offers generous, refined catering: varied buffets, tailor-made menus, sweet breaks, vegetarian options, and the Cosmos Bar invites guests to unwind… These are key moments that reinforce conviviality and sustain group momentum.
Teams particularly appreciate the freshness of the products and the flexibility of the dining options, perfectly suited to tight schedules.

4. Plan comfortable accommodation to optimise focus and recovery

For a multi-day seminar, participant comfort plays a crucial role.
The newly renovated rooms — including Deluxe Rooms and Executive Suites — offer a soothing environment, premium bedding, and amenities designed for business travellers.
Reliable Wi-Fi, workspaces, and a quiet atmosphere all contribute to well-being and concentration. A restful environment encourages engagement and high-quality work sessions.

5. Rely on a team dedicated to organising your event

A successful seminar also depends on the expertise of those preparing it.
The hotel’s Meeting and Events team supports companies at every step: technical requirements, room coordination, catering, AV equipment setup, space scheduling.
An essential support to ensure a smooth event and a premium experience for all participants.
