Seminars and company events
The relexa hotel Harz-Wald hosts conferences, training seminars, team events and company parties for up to 250 guests, spread over 21 event rooms. The hotel stands on the edge of Braunlage, in the Harz mountains of Lower Saxony, at the foot of the Wurmberg and within the Harz National Park.
The largest space is the Berlin hall. Opened as one room, Berlin 1 and 2 cover 230 square meters and seat 250 in rows, 200 at classroom tables or 200 for a banquet. Separately, Berlin 1 takes 80 for dinner and Berlin 2 up to 40. Braunlage 1, at 131 square meters, seats 70 in rows. Around these sit mid-size rooms for 20 to 30 people and a series of breakout rooms for about 10, which suits programs that alternate between plenary sessions and group work. The hotel describes its meeting rooms as full of daylight with views of greenery, and it sells day packages that bundle room, technology and catering. Guests mention a generous lunch buffet and a bar that stays open late. After the sessions, groups can use the pool, the saunas, the fitness area and the hotel bowling alley.
Weddings and receptions
The hotel sells weddings for up to 250 guests. A church blessing in the garden or in one of the event rooms can usually be arranged after talking to the parish office, and a civil ceremony is agreed case by case with the registry office. Ceremonies in the garden or on the Wurmberg, the highest summit in Lower Saxony, are also offered. Sparkling wine and cocktail receptions take place in the large garden or inside. The team coordinates decoration, can bring in regional florists and arranges musicians and DJs, and it recommends local wedding photographers. A wedding suite is included for the couple when the party has 40 or more guests.
