Seminars and company events
Albhotel Fortuna in Riederich, next to Metzingen, offers ten meeting rooms for conferences, seminars, workshops and presentations, with space for up to 400 people. The four-star hotel has 98 bedrooms in the same building, so a two-day seminar can run without transfers between the meeting room and the beds.
The rooms of the annex are separated by mobile partitions and can be opened from 40 m² up to 400 m². They are column-free, have parquet floors and daylight, and vehicles can drive in, which helps for product launches and equipment-heavy setups. Smaller meetings use air-conditioned rooms in the main building. The banquet team advises before and during the event, and the hotel offers hybrid meetings with a Cannyboard system. A brochure of rooms and day-delegate packages can be downloaded from the website, and a site visit can be booked by phone.
Weddings and receptions
The hotel hosts weddings, birthdays, confirmations, communions and other celebrations, from small groups to 400 guests. The banquet hall is column-free, has 400 m² of parquet and opens onto a terrace. The Wintergarten, a light-filled room in a green setting, takes up to 90 guests for smaller parties and is also the restaurant. Both spaces have direct access to the terrace. The rustic Wein-Stüble, which has its own bar, can be used for private events. The banquet team plans the event with you from the first enquiry to the day itself.
Rooms and capacities
The meeting rooms are numbered K1 to K10. K1 Fortuna and K2 Stuttgart measure 78 m² each (11.5 by 6.8 m, ceiling height 3.6 m). K3 Reutlingen, K4 Tübingen, K5 Metzingen and K6 Schwäbisch Gmünd measure 40 m² each. K7 Mörike has 47 m², K8 Uhland 42 m², K9 Hölderlin 30 m² and K10 Hauff 34 m². The hotel states an overall maximum of 400 people but no seated capacity per room, so ask the banquet department for the layouts that fit your group.
Accommodation
The 98 comfort and standard rooms have a shower or bath, WC, hairdryer, cable TV and Wi-Fi. A fitness and sauna area with a rest room is open to hotel guests. The hotel describes itself as a quiet place on the edge of the village, which suits delegates who want to work in the evening or rest between sessions.
Catering
The Wintergarten restaurant serves international and seasonal cuisine and is open to outside guests as well. The terrace with a pond adjoins it. Menus for banquets and meeting packages are arranged with the banquet department, and the hotel lists its meeting packages in the downloadable folder.
Getting there
The hotel stands on the quiet edge of Riederich at Hegwiesenstraße 20. Outlet City Metzingen is five minutes away by car, which gives delegates something to do after the programme. Guests park in the car park next to the building or in the hotel's underground garage, which has direct access to the hotel.
