Romantik Hotel Zum Stern hosts seminars for up to 120 people in theater layout, workshops and board meetings in five daylight rooms, and family celebrations and weddings of around 100 guests. The hotel stands on the Linggplatz in the center of the old town of Bad Hersfeld, in Hesse, Germany.
Seminars and company events
All five meeting rooms have daylight, current presentation equipment and free Wi-Fi, and staff are on hand for setup, during the meeting and afterward. Residential conference packages include the minibar and use of the pool. For the evenings, the hotel runs its own supporting program: a tasting of five beers led by a beer sommelier, a platter of Ahle Wurscht, the cured sausage of North Hesse, a seven-course regional dinner served by staff in traditional dress, an evening of local dishes and stories over three to five courses, and a gourmet dinner for up to 20 at L'étable. Teams can also book group cooking sessions at Stern*s Kochwerkstatt.
Weddings and receptions
The hotel organizes small family gatherings, anniversaries and weddings; it cites a wedding of 100 guests. Decoration is planned with the owner and the in-house florist, and a coordinator stays in contact before and during the day. Menu and buffet proposals follow the season, and the team can suggest musicians and entertainers from its list of contacts.
