Planning a company event in Hesse
Hesse is built around Frankfurt, a financial centre with one of the world’s large trade fair grounds and an airport that reaches most countries directly. For retreats, the Rheingau, the Taunus and the spa towns offer quiet venues a short transfer from the terminals.
When to go
Frankfurt works all year, but its hotels fill during the big trade fairs, the book fair in October among them, so the fair calendar decides the dates. Spring and autumn are the pleasant seasons in the Rheingau and the Taunus. Midsummer and the weeks around Christmas are quieter in the city.
Getting the team there
Frankfurt airport is the country’s main hub, and its long-distance station puts ICE trains under the same roof. The main station links the city with Cologne, Munich, Berlin, Paris and Brussels. Kassel, in the north, has its own ICE station. This makes Hesse a natural meeting point for teams coming from several countries.
Conference hotels, wine estates and castles
Frankfurt and the airport area have a large supply of conference hotels and meeting space, and Wiesbaden and Darmstadt have congress centres. In the Rheingau, wine estates and former monasteries rent halls and cellars, and castles and country hotels in the Taunus host seminars with rooms on site.
Activities
Wine tastings and vineyard walks in the Rheingau, boat trips on the Rhine and hikes in the Taunus fit a half day. In Frankfurt, an evening in an apple wine tavern or a visit to the museums along the river rounds off a working day. Spa towns add thermal baths.

Where to hold a company retreat near Frankfurt?
On a wine estate or in a former monastery in the Rheingau, in a castle or country hotel in the Taunus, or in a spa town such as Wiesbaden. All are a short transfer from the airport and the main station.
What is the best time for a corporate event in Frankfurt?
Any season outside the major trade fairs, when hotels are full. Check the fair calendar first; spring and autumn are best if the programme includes time outdoors in the Rheingau or the Taunus.
Why hold an international meeting in Hesse?
Because Frankfurt airport has direct flights from most countries and a long-distance rail station in the terminal. Teams from different places can meet with a single journey each and no long transfer.
