About two years ago, I visited the NYC Seminar and Conference Center to attend an environmental remediation seminar with a few other work colleagues of mine. From the very beginning I was impressed with everything from its enormous size to its prestigious decor. The building comes equipped with a doorman and a concierge who demonstrate excellent customer service. The center also provides food service and catering offering everything from pastries, snacks and coffee to a full course dinner menu. As for the individual amenities, you have access to several different meeting rooms, hundreds of laptops, projectors, microphones and everything else you would need to service a well put together seminar or conference. The meeting rooms range from all different sizes, some rooms capable of seating over two hundred people. They are also equipped with video conferencing capabilities which can allow you to have a meeting with someone in over 250 locations spread around the country. If you are coming from out of town and need a place to stay for the night, they provide recommendations to hotels in the area which can get you discounts for your stay. There are shuttle buses at your disposal to get large groups of people transported to these hotels or back to the train station or airport which both happen to be at very reasonable distances from the facility. I know this all sounds great so you're probably thinking it comes with a very high price tag but believe it or not the New York City Seminar and Conference Center is very well priced and can fit the majority of budgets. So if you are seeking an extremely affordable yet high end venue to host your next meeting, conference or seminar, check out the NYCSCC.
The New York City Seminar and Conference Center in New York City, New York is a great venue for business meetings. It is not like a regular meeting venue, it is specialized for large meetings and stocked for productivity. For starters, the only problem I had with the venue is that there were not extra accommodations for out of town guests, and most of the hotels near the center were expensive or booked. Also, the whole venue had to be booked quite a few weeks in advance in order to save the room my meeting required. However, the building has operating elevators and a doorman, always a classy touch. Also, they had complete video conferencing amenities as well as great audio visual equipment that was all up to date and ready to go. They even had old school business supplies from paper and pencils to white boards to laptop rentals for our guests. Furthermore, full catering was available for all meals and snacks as well as a beverage bar and a variety of meal options. Even better, there were a variety of room styles to choose from in order to match our needs. The venue is also located in a great area with tons of restaurants and shopping centers nearby as well as transportation nearby the venue. Finally, the staff was friendly and caring. The front desk clerks were great in directing our guests to our specific room as well as keeping everything stocked and ready to go. The caterers were fantastic at keeping the meal hot and ready to go as well as making delicious food for everyone to enjoy. Overall, it was a great and affordable venue for any company and their particular meeting.
I have gone to many conferences for work and I typically go to luxurious hotels or conference centers that offer countless amenities. Usually, these features are not even necessary for the conference and are often unused. This conference venue, however, had everything that was needed, and it was a simple and adequate venue. There are several floors and each have a few seminar or training rooms. All are equipped with LCD projectors, flip charts, and offer over one hundred laptops for attendees. The rooms are reasonably sized, but can be expanded fi the group is large by combining multiple rooms. Our conference did this and it worked well. The catering was also very simple, but the food was delicious. Snacks were provided between meals, but there were also vending machines around that were easily accessible if more was needed. It was elegantly displayed and did the trick. It was obvious that this venue was perfect for those that are on a budget, but still want to present with professionalism. The venue is located in Chelsea in NEw York City, which is a fun and hip area. There is lots of shopping and terrific restaurants nearby so it was a centrally located for outside activities. There was also a satellite site in Soho, but this site was not used for our conference so I cannot speak to it. Based on how great the conference was in the Chelsea location, I would definitely be interested in looking into their other site. I highly recommend this venue for a cost effective and excellent place to have a meeting ro conference.
