InterContinental Budapest hosts meetings, conferences and receptions for groups from 10 to 800 people, in a hotel on the Danube in central Budapest. Its event level has a ballroom that seats 850 and nine breakout rooms on the same floor, so a plenary session and its side meetings run without changing buildings.
Seminars and company events
The ballroom is described on the official site as the largest in the city with natural light. Movable walls let the hotel resize the space, from a 10-person meeting to an event of 800 guests. The nine breakout rooms sit on the same level as the ballroom and suit parallel sessions, workshops and smaller meetings next to a large plenary.
The foyer of the event level works for guest arrivals, standing receptions, coffee breaks and exhibitions. The first-floor level also houses the Club InterContinental. One of the conference rooms looks toward Buda Castle.
The hotel has a team for healthcare and pharmaceutical events, and its planners know the rules and rhythm of those meetings. Audiovisual equipment is supplied by an outside partner that works with the hotel, which is worth confirming when you plan a technical program.
Rooms and capacities
The main figures are an 850-person ballroom, nine breakout rooms and flexible walls that bring the usable range from 10 to 800 guests. Per-room capacities and floor areas are not published on the pages we read, so ask the sales team for the layouts you need: theatre, classroom, banquet or reception.
The standard meeting offer includes a flipchart, free Wi-Fi across the event area, and a notepad and pencil for each participant. Coffee breaks come with fresh fruit, pastries, coffee, tea, soft drinks and mineral water. A buffet lunch is served in the hotel restaurant, with salads, soups, cold starters, hot dishes and a dessert buffet that follow the chef's daily choice.

Guests stay in Classic rooms, Classic River View rooms, Premium rooms and suites, and a Club InterContinental lounge is available. The number of bedrooms is not stated on the pages we read.
