We Love It Here!
We love holding our annual conference at Salem Conference Center so much that we just signed our second 5 year contract. 2020 will be over 10 years that we will have met at Salem Conference Center. Professional staff and equipment. Friendly, accurate and quick to serve as needed. Everyone from the office staff to the set up crew are reliable, and willing to meet our needs. Thank you Theresa, Donna, Al, and all you others. We have 2 large rooms in use at once, as well as smaller break out session rooms. We also have an exhibit show that uses the hallway and landing on the second floor. Our vendors are always happy with the space. When changes have occurred last minute, the staff are on the spot making adjustments as needed. The location is central for our organization's members to travel to. The adjoining Grand Hotel makes it perfect. There is plenty of parking. Bentley's restaurant on site has excellent food and service.

The staff was lovely, the venue beautiful, and the food good, but, man, it was freezing! And the wi-fi was terrible. Not a comfortable or productive business conference.

Parking garage is below ground, full size trucks suggest street parking. As far as rooms go, we did not stay at the hotel that is adjoining, we used the Willamette room upstairs. Absolutely wonderful!

Great place to stay, attend a conference or just pop in for dinner! Bring your appetite because if you leave here hungry, it's your own fault!
Have the prime rib if you come. Absolute perfection!!
