The Centrum Konferencyjno-Bankietowe "U Ostrowskich" hosts conferences, trainings, company events and weddings in a restored 19th-century hall in Siemianowice Śląskie, in the Upper Silesian conurbation. The venue is equipped for up to 300 participants at a conference, and Saturday weddings start from 80 guests.
Seminars and company events
The official site presents the hall as a setting for conferences, trainings and product shows. The equipment includes computers, a multimedia projector, a 3 by 4 meter screen, and professional conference sound and lighting. The venue states that it can equip the hall for up to 300 people at a training or conference. The hall is air-conditioned and has balconies. Catering can be provided on request for any meeting, with the same service team that runs the receptions. Company events are a separate offer on the website, next to conferences. For a seminar, ask the owners for the seating plan that suits your group, since the site gives a single maximum figure rather than layouts by room.
Weddings and receptions
Weddings are a long-standing activity. The venue states that Saturday weddings are organized from a minimum of 80 guests. Tables can be round or rectangular, and chair covers are provided. The package lists a bridal apartment with a safe, a red carpet at the hall entrance, monitored parking on the grounds, and a closed site for security. Children up to age 3 eat free, and children from 4 to 7 pay half the menu. The owners say they follow the event from the first contact to the end of the evening and that the agreed price does not change after signing. On request the venue can also arrange a band or DJ, bar service, cakes, a multi-tier wedding cake, a photo booth, a chocolate fountain and limousine transport.
Rooms and capacities
The venue works around one large historic hall with a wooden parquet floor, balconies and air conditioning. It is also used for graduation balls, communions and other receptions. The website does not name separate event rooms, and it gives no seated capacity for banquets beyond the 80-guest minimum for weddings and the 300-person conference figure.
Accommodation
Guest rooms are available for wedding guests. The site does not state how many rooms there are, so confirm this when you ask for availability.
Catering
The kitchen is run by the venue, which draws on about 20 years of experience in catering for receptions. Couples can build their own menu or choose from the menu proposals published for weddings. Catering is also available for conferences.
History and setting
The hall was built in the 19th century and became known as the Restaurant "u Uhra", a place for meals and sports entertainment. It later fell into ruin. Grażyna and Włodzimierz Ostrowski restored it, rebuilding its architectural details, and the center opened on October 29, 2003. The building was entered in the register of monuments, class A, in 2011. The interior is in a classical, palace-like style and includes what the owners describe as the largest crystal chandelier in Poland.
Getting there
The address is ul. Michałkowicka 7, 41-100 Siemianowice Śląskie. Event requests go to Włodzimierz Ostrowski, who is named as the contact for event organization.
