Seminars and company events
Conferences of up to 650 delegates, gala dinners for 450 at round tables and workshops of 20 to 70 can be held at U Magic Palace Eilat, a hotel of the Fattal group in Eilat, the resort city at the southern tip of Israel on the Red Sea. Its four halls can be booked privately, and the hotel presents them as equipped for meetings and conventions, with spacious reception areas around them.
The largest hall takes a full plenary in theatre or cocktail layout, while the two mid-sized halls work for parallel sessions, an exhibition or a second dinner room. The smallest hall, Sapphire, suits a board meeting or a breakout group. Since delegates sleep, eat and meet in the same building, a two- or three-day program runs without transfers between sessions, which matters in a city where most groups arrive by air.
Each hall has a minimum number of guests, so the room is matched to the size of the group from the start of the planning.
Rooms and capacities
Hoshen is the main hall, with 600 square meters: 650 guests in theatre or cocktail layout, 500 in classroom and 450 at round tables, with a stated minimum of 450.
Bareket covers 450 square meters: 450 for a cocktail, 400 to 450 in theatre, 250 in classroom or at round tables, 150 in a U-shape and 15 at a royal table. Its minimum is 150.
Jasper, also called Houdini, offers 400 square meters for 400 in theatre or cocktail layout and 150 at round tables, with a minimum of 150.
Sapphire is a 71-square-meter room for 70 in theatre, 50 for a cocktail, 30 in classroom or U-shape and 20 at round tables or around a royal table. Groups from 20 people can book it.
Together, the four halls cover about 1,500 square meters, enough to run a plenary, a dinner room and a workshop at the same time for a large group.
Accommodation
The hotel offers a wide range of room types, including family rooms, which helps when delegates travel with partners or children over a weekend. Room blocks for an event are set with the hotel team.
Catering
Meals are served in the main dining hall, with a breakfast buffet from 7:00 to 10:30 a.m. and dinner from 6:00 to 9:00 p.m. A snack bar and the Marina Bar by the pool, as well as a lobby bar, serve light meals and drinks, and lunch at the pool snack bar can be ordered in advance. Menus for dinners in the event halls are arranged with the hotel's events team.
History and setting
U Magic Palace opened in 2000 and belongs to Fattal, one of the largest hotel operators in Israel. Eilat lies on the Gulf of Aqaba, between desert mountains and the sea, with warm weather for most of the year, which makes it a common choice for winter conferences and incentive trips.
Getting there
Ramon Airport, north of the city, receives domestic flights from Tel Aviv and international flights. Eilat has no railway station. By road, Tel Aviv is about four hours away.
