Montebelo Viseu Congress Hotel & Spa offers ten named meeting rooms with natural light for conferences and company events in Viseu, central Portugal. Beyond the hotel, the Expocenter, 10 minutes away, adds a 1,350 square meter hall for about 2,000 people. The hotel has 172 rooms and sits five minutes from the city center.
Seminars and company events
The hotel presents itself as a congress hotel. It has a wide choice of multifunctional rooms lit by daylight, prepared for conferences and events of any type. The events team supplies audiovisual and multimedia equipment, and suggests catering and entertainment. A 3D tool on the official site lets organisers walk through each room and test layouts before sending a request.
For a seminar with breakouts, three rooms, Bigorne, Gralheira and Montemuro, are listed both separately and as a combined set. A lobby serves the meeting rooms, which helps with registration and coffee breaks.
Rooms and capacities
The official gallery names these rooms: Bigorne, Gralheira, Montemuro, Santiago, Leomil, Lapa, Nave, Caramulo, Caramulinho and Cabeço da Neve, along with the meeting rooms lobby. The site does not publish an area or a per-layout capacity for them, so ask the events team for floor plans and figures that match your format.
For larger audiences, the Expocenter is the option named by the hotel. It covers 1,350 square meters and holds about 2,000 people. It is a separate venue, 10 minutes from the hotel.
