The charming city, known for rich history and culture, is located directly at the Drava River and surrounded by the rolling hills of Štajerska wine-growing region and Pohorje forest plateau. Thanks to excellent congress and convention capacities of different sizes, numerous accommodation possibilities, including boutique city hotels and farm stays, Maribor is known as a perfect location for business events and incentives.

Congresses & meetings 

Maribor, the capital of the Slovenian Styrian region, offers a sparkly atmosphere for meetings, events and incentives, owing in part to the fact Slovenia's second largest city is committed to the grapevine: Maribor is a winegrowing city and the home of the oldest living vine in the world. 

Maribor is the business, scientific, academic, cultural and political centre of eastern Slovenia, as well as an increasingly popular host of various meetings, events and incentives.

Both large meeting rooms with modern technical equipment are available, as well as interesting alternative venues suitable for smaller groups. Classical conference rooms include the Habakuk Convention Center and Hotel City Maribor, which each accommodate 700 delegates, Casino & Hotel Mond for up to 250 delegates, and Draš, which is suitable for groups of up to 180 delegates. For a slightly different, unique experience, you can choose among special venues that will leave a lasting and memorable impression. The Maribor Regional Museum, located in the Old Castle, can host an event with a touch of the unique historical atmosphere in the magnificent Knights’ Hall or the romantic Rococo staircase. The ceremonial Casino Hall at the Slovenian National Theater offers a venue with crystal chandeliers and baroque decorations that will not leave anyone indifferent. The magnificent Dveri-Pax wine cellar with its rich history and attractive cuisine will delight even the most discerning visitors.

In Maribor, you can choose among different categories and types of accommodation.
