The number of guests and the options for seating them at tables is a fundamental factor that will greatly influence your choice. Some prefer smaller groups. However, variants where people sit down at one large table and the conversation takes place across the room are also common. It is also important whether you want a private lounge and whether it is okay for strangers to sit next to people from your company.
Choose a place according to the evening programme. Are you going to chat over food and a glass of wine, do you want to shake a leg on the dance floor or do you plan to play teambuilding games? This must also be taken into account when choosing the place.
Another thing to take into account is refreshments. A party can be in the spirit of a buffet or a multi-course dinner. Probably no party is complete without alcohol. You should think about employee preferences. Not always, but very often, men prefer beer, whereas women prefer wine. The gentlemen will probably enjoy an evening in a wine bar less than the ladies.
The place where a party is held can also be an experience itself. If you organize one on your company’s premises, the employees will probably not be very enthusiastic. This is despite the fact that you spend several hours on Christmas decorations. Conversely, a place where they will tell you the secrets of their kitchen, show off their breathtaking Christmas lights or offer you a wonderful view of the town is a safe bet.
Even an amazing place is not enough by itself. You have to think about the comfort of your guests. It is not advisable to hold a Christmas party in a place that is across town from your company office and it will take an hour by car to get there. A location near the office, accessible by public transport or easily reachable by taxi is better.
If you want to opt for a more remote location, then arrange accommodation for your employees. You can plan a whole weekend with the option of sleeping over. The event will be a little more expensive, but pennies should not be counted at Christmas or for employees. Satisfied employees usually do a much better job.
To choose the best place for your business, be sure to book in advance. Christmas parties are becoming increasingly popular. The sooner you arrange a place, the better. Likewise, try to announce the date in advance to your employees, which will give them more time to arrange a free evening. If you are still hesitant about where to bring your employees for a corporate party, one of the ideal locations for Christmas parties and other events is Davídkov Mill, between Prague and Kutná Hora. A place with a unique atmosphere in the middle of beautiful countryside. Here you can not only entertain and feed your employees, but also comfortably accommodate them. And you will have no shortage of privacy.
