With Croatia recently making its way from the amber to the green list, we see what this gorgeous country has to offer international conference attendees.
Le Meridien Lav
Split is Croatia’s second largest city and sits on the eastern shore of the Adriatic. Like most of Croatia’s cities, Split is a mix of modern life surrounded by the remnants of ancient history and boasts a bustling waterfront, palaces, cathedrals, and a picturesque old town.
Le Meridien Lav sits just five miles from Split city centre, on a private beach on the coast of the Adriatic. The hotel boasts 13 separate meeting rooms totalling a combined 23,624 sq ft with a capacity of 1,210 delegates. The meeting rooms come equipped with audio visual facilities and high speed Wi-Fi, and the hotel has a business centre complete with administrative services.

Amadria Park Capital Business Halls
Zagreb is Croatia’s capital city but is often overlooked in favour of other destinations in the country. The city has a long history, dating back to ancient Roman times, and is perfect for those who want to wander on foot. Gornji Grad, literally ‘upper town’ is a maze of cobblestone paths and red-tiled roofs, and is home to the Dolac Market, St Mark’s Church, and the Museum of Broken Relationships.
Being Croatia’s capital, Zagreb host’s countless business events each year and is home to many corporate venues. The Amadria Park Capital Business Halls is just five minutes’ walk away from the main square and holds three art deco style spaces. Each meeting hall is distinctive: the Capital Private Club offers drinks served from a repurposed bank vault, the Capital Meeting Room transforms froman art deco café to a conference room, and the Capital Business Saloon has a mezzanine lobby and pre-meeting coffee service area.
