Landhotel Naafs-Häuschen in Lohmar hosts seminars and workshops for 10 to 50 people, as well as weddings, family parties and banquets. The country hotel sits in the Agger valley, east of Cologne and Bonn. It has 43 bedrooms, seven meeting spaces and its own registry office.
Seminars and company events
The hotel presents itself as a conference hotel in the Rhineland. Its seminar offer is aimed at groups of 10 to 30 people, and meetings of up to 50 are possible. The official site lists seven spaces, from rooms of about 50 square meters for 12 people to the Großer Kammerberg at about 125 square meters. The main seminar room has daylight and can be darkened.
Standard equipment includes a projector and screen, flipcharts, pin boards, a moderator case and wireless internet. Extra equipment such as a sound system, flat screen or additional projector can be rented. For groups of more than 10 the hotel can provide hardware for hybrid seminars, where a group in the room is joined by remote participants.
Teams can add a program outside the meeting room. Guided walks start from Burg Honrath and cover themes such as leadership, collaboration, focus and balance. The hotel also lists a beekeeping session with honey tasting and a wood-crafting walk. Outdoor areas can be used when the weather allows.
Weddings and receptions
The hotel also works as a party venue for weddings, family celebrations, birthdays and anniversaries. A registry office is in the house, so the civil ceremony and the reception can take place under one roof. Banquets are served in Ottos Backhaus and in a banquet barn next to the inn. The newer Kirschbaum rooms house guests who stay overnight after a banquet. The official text gives no guest limit for banquets, so ask for the figure when you send a request.
