Yachthafenresidenz Hohe Düne takes congresses, conferences, product launches, galas and weddings for up to 1,000 guests, with 368 rooms and suites under the same roof. The resort stands at the mouth of the Warnow in Rostock, across the harbor entrance from Warnemünde, between its own beach and a marina of about 920 berths.
Seminars and company events
The congress center covers about 3,000 m² and holds 20 meeting and event rooms plus a ballroom. Most rooms look out on the Baltic Sea, the harbor entrance or the marina. Small groups can work in the Leuchtturm, a 60 m² boardroom for up to 18 people, or in Salon 23 for up to 45. Mid-sized meetings fit in Salon 21 und 22 or Salon 25 und 26, each for up to 108 people and divisible in two. Salon 19 takes up to 252 people and opens onto the Sonnendeck. Plenary sessions and gala dinners go to the 640 m² Ballsaal with its large foyer, or to the Bootshalle, a 640 m² hall with a 10.5 m ceiling and glass walls, close to the hotel beach. The Promenadendeck, a bright gallery linking the seminar rooms, serves coffee breaks, and a business center and a speakers' lounge support the program. The hotel sells day meeting packages and publishes a list of past events.
Weddings and receptions
