Yeah; there’s a lot to like about the Conrad, but the lack of a “community area” around the entrance was a bit of a shame. In Berlin we had quite a large ground floor open layout bar/restaurant near the entrance and a lot of tables outside what was the Bits and Bites area, and that made it easy to bump into people. In the Conrad you’re split apart by floors, and there isn’t an open layout “social” bar/restaurant. Not a mandatory requirement for mtgvenue though.

Well said.. I've been planning on making a similar comment.

It's not a requirement, but I think it's a desirable feature that should be somewhere in the list of priorities when selecting the main meeting hotel.

I spoke to four people this morning who independently also made this comment.  I’ve just popped an email to the mtgvenue list to suggest it as a [Desired] venue property.
