Schloss Schadau in Thun combines a hotel, a restaurant and event rooms in a 19th-century castle on Lake Thun. Celebrations and banquets fit from 8 to 70 people in the Rougemont Hall, two first-floor salons or the restaurant rooms, and larger groups can be served a flying dinner spread over several rooms. Two seminar rooms on the second floor suit small seminars, and exclusive booking of the whole castle is possible from November to March.
Seminars and company events
The castle describes itself as suited to small seminars, retreats and company anniversaries. Two seminar rooms sit on the second floor, both with lake views. For the evening, the Rougemont Hall or a first-floor salon works for a dinner or a reception. Seminar documentation is available as a PDF on the site, and a reservation request form is provided. Hotel rooms on site allow the group to stay overnight, and the castle mentions attractive room rates for banquet guests.
Weddings and receptions
The castle has a dedicated wedding section with civil weddings, ceremonies, and aperitif and banquet proposals. The Rougemont Hall, the salons, the garden terrace and the veranda are the main settings. A flying dinner is the format proposed when a celebration exceeds 70 guests.

The event rooms and halls are described for 8 to 70 people. They are the large Rougemont Hall, the two salons on the first floor and the two seminar rooms on the second floor, all with lake views.
