Meeting Facilities
Grand Hotel Karel V is the first five star hotel in Utrecht and provides twelve conference rooms (total 900 sq.m). All halls have been restored to their ancient splendor and can be used for business as well as festive occasions. For example the Graaf van Leicester hall includes an auditory, equipped with the latest in audiovisual facilities. And the beautiful 14th century arched oak roof, which was restored to its former splendor, greatly contributes to the wonderful ambiance of the historic Unico van Wassenaer room. The Golden Fleece room, a former archive room with a cross vault ceiling, is extremely appropriate for special occasions, such as the signing of contracts and the ratification of agreements, due to its size and location. The old wards of the uniaue building of Grand Hotel Karel V were transformed, in a historically sound way, into 39 luxurious hotel rooms and 5 suites in the Napoleontic wing. In the Garden wing we offer 31 hotelrooms and 16 suites equipped with all modern conveniences.
