Althoff Hotel Fürstenhof Celle is a hotel in a historic Baroque palais in Celle, Lower Saxony, with 62 rooms and suites and six meeting rooms with daylight. For larger gatherings, the Congress Union Celle next door offers space for events of up to 3,000 people. The combination covers a board retreat of a dozen people as well as a congress or gala.
Seminars and company events
The hotel has six daylight meeting rooms for seminars, workshops and private dining. The website names two of them, the Blauer Salon and the Remise II, but does not give capacities, so ask for the room plan with your request. Packages are available for meetings, weddings and private celebrations. For large formats, the Congress Union Celle next to the hotel provides 11 event rooms, separate foyers and exhibition areas on 3,500 square meters, for up to 3,000 people.
Weddings and receptions
The hotel presents a family-run, formal atmosphere for weddings and sells wedding and event packages. A wedding and event brochure is available as a PDF, and the team offers personal consultations. A wedding and event fair takes place at the hotel on November 14, 2026, which is a practical way for couples and planners to see the rooms.
Rooms and capacities
The six hotel meeting rooms are the base for groups that want to stay in one building. The congress centre handles anything that outgrows them, with its own foyers for registration and catering. Individual capacities are not published on the pages we read, so confirm them for your layout.
Accommodation
The hotel has 62 rooms and suites, which is enough for a residential seminar of around 60 people in single occupancy. Larger congress groups would need to use other hotels in Celle for the overflow.
Catering
The hotel restaurant, cucina italiana Palio, serves Italian cuisine, and a bar completes the house. Meeting and wedding packages include catering, and the details of the menus are given on request.
History and setting
The building is a Baroque palais in the center of Celle, a town known for its half-timbered old town and a ducal castle. The hotel has a history section on its website, although the pages we read give no dates.
Getting there
Celle station is about 1 km from the hotel. Hanover Airport at Langenhagen is about 30 to 35 minutes by car, 35 km away. The town sits on the edge of the Lüneburg Heath, within reach of Hamburg, Bremen, Berlin, Brunswick and Hanover. The address is Hannoversche Strasse 55/56, 29221 Celle.
