On 22nd October 2011 the Grand Hotel Union, in collaboration with the Slovenian Convention Bureau (SCB), Slovenian Tourist Board (STB) and DMC Intours, helped to host a familiarisation event in Ljubljana. The ‘Feel the Charm of Slovenia’ fam trip was designed as a visual, musical and culinary melange of Grand Hotel Union services, with an emphasis on a warm welcome and familiarising German-language visitors with the hotel and its vibrant past. The welcome reception was held in the hotel’s beautiful, Art Nouveau-design Grand Union Hall. The Hall, with adornments typical of a classical theatre, was beautifully lit as for a gala dinner, complete with a pianist on stage accompanying the entire reception, ensuring the guests enjoyed a creative and inspiring introduction of the hotel and its services.
