Schloss Fellin can host seminars, receptions, weddings and concerts for up to 80 guests, with 17 hotel rooms, a spa and a restaurant under the same roof. The venue is a historic manor house at Tasuja puiestee 4 in Viljandi, Estonia. Event rooms of different sizes can be used separately or combined, and the hotel, restaurant and spa make it possible to run a full residential programme.
Seminars and company events
The main meeting space is the Grosse Halle, the great hall on the ground floor, to the left of the main entrance lobby. It has seating for at least 70 visitors for a talk or concert, tall windows and a chandelier. Two smaller rooms, the Aviator's and the Architect's salons, adjoin the hall and give extra space for breakout groups or a reception.
The manor says it has current technical equipment for presentations and conferences. The official site also lists a seminar package for weekdays, which combines a double room, coffee break, dinner in the café Novell, spa and sauna access, breakfast and the seminar rooms. Ask for current dates and terms when you enquire.
Weddings and receptions
The great hall is presented as suited to weddings, anniversaries, Christmas parties and other celebrations. The maximum number of guests depends on the event type and table layout. The restaurant and the Novell café on the lower floor can be added for dinners or drinks. One of the listed offers is to take the whole Schloss for your group, which points to exclusive hire.

The Grosse Halle holds up to 78 in theatre style, 50 banquet style and 80 for a standing reception. In classroom style it takes 36, in boardroom style 20, in U-shape 26 and in O-shape 36.
