Sitar is a purpose-built meeting room at DoubleTree by Hilton Varanasi, meticulously designed to foster productivity and collaboration. Spanning 1,000 square feet with dimensions of 40 by 25 feet, this space offers a professional and comfortable environment for a variety of corporate functions. It is perfectly suited for intensive workshops, detailed training programs, and strategic planning sessions. One of Sitar's most significant assets is the abundance of natural daylight, a feature proven to enhance mood and maintain energy levels during long meetings. This makes it an excellent choice for daytime events where attendee focus is critical. The room's capacity to host up to 80 guests in a reception or theatre style, or smaller numbers in classroom or U-shape formations, provides planners with significant flexibility. The ambiance is one of understated professionalism, with contemporary decor and high-quality furnishings that create a conducive atmosphere for business. As a standalone venue, Sitar is ideal for companies looking to host off-site meetings or for organizations needing a reliable, well-equipped space for their corporate events.
While Sitar is an exceptional venue in its own right, its strategic value is amplified when used as part of a larger conference. Located on the same floor as the Maharaja Ballroom and Shehnai Hall, it serves as a perfect breakout room. When a large conference is underway in the main ballroom, Sitar can host smaller, more specialized sessions, workshops, or panel discussions. This allows for a more dynamic and engaging conference program, catering to diverse interests among attendees. Furthermore, Sitar is adjacent to Sarangi, an identical 1,000-square-foot meeting room. This proximity allows planners to run two parallel sessions simultaneously or use one room for the main session and the other for a catered lunch or networking break. The shared foyer area outside these rooms provides a convenient space for delegates to gather and network between sessions. This intelligent design and layout of the hotel's conference floor empower event planners to create complex, multi-track events with smooth and efficient logistics, all within a single, cohesive area.
Booking the Sitar meeting room includes the full support of the DoubleTree by Hilton Varanasi team. The space is equipped with essential modern audiovisual technology, including projection screens and a sound system, to facilitate effective presentations. The hotel's IT and events teams are on hand to ensure all technology runs smoothly. Catering for events held in Sitar is managed by the hotel's expert culinary team, who can provide everything from continuous coffee and tea service to working lunches and light refreshments, all served either within the room or in the adjacent foyer. This integrated approach means that planners have a single point of contact for all their needs, simplifying the organization process significantly. The combination of a well-designed, naturally lit space, modern technology, and comprehensive support services makes Sitar a reliable and highly effective choice for any planner aiming to deliver a successful and productive corporate event.
