Organising your event or meeting at the Yalo Hotel is a refined experience. We know that, but you might need a little more convincing. See what Jan Arickx from Chevron (Texaco) has to say about his experience hosting a three-day company training session with over 50 international guests. Sleep, meet and eat in perfect harmony.
What’s so great about meeting at Yalo?
“There are many advantages to meeting in one of Yalo’s meeting rooms, but one thing that really stands out is the opportunity to connect afterwards. Our international colleagues especially value the many socialising opportunities, such as at the bar. They come from all over the world and get to share knowledge and talk some more over a dish or drink, which is an extremely important facet of our company events.”
How do those international guests experience a stay at the Yalo Hotel?
“They’re huge fans of the hotel, that’s for sure. They love the reception, service, rooms and, as I mentioned before, the many opportunities for socialising. Overall, they’re very enthusiastic about the quality of their stay here. The great location also allows for exploring the city or staying in to dine. After our last visit to the Yalo Hotel a few years ago, they even requested to stay here again for the next training.”
How did the guests experience the restaurant?
“They loved the fact that you aren’t bound to one dish thanks to the food-sharing concept. Multiple dishes are served, and you’re able to taste whichever one you want. We also saw that during the training evaluation, the food-sharing element was mentioned as one of the highlights of the event.”
How did Yalo’s setting benefit your training?
“One of the things we appreciated was the daylight that enters both the meeting rooms and the communal spaces, such as the bar. Natural light is crucial for maintaining focus throughout the entire training, so that was a big advantage for us.”
How do the meeting rooms accommodate trends in professional training?
“We have noticed the increasing importance of hybrid meetings, meaning that people are able to attend both physically and online. Thanks to the facilities in the meeting room, our hybrid training went perfectly.”
