Offsite at the Chocolate Hotel

Julia Marquardt • August 6, 2023

Focus. Learn. Grow.

Sometimes we get so caught up in our routine that we can't see the forest for the trees. 

It’s not always primarily about the tasks at hand, but usually about the environment as well! Just get out of the same four walls for a change and gather new ideas in a different setting. That’s the goal of offsites.

A great way to do this would be to visit the Chocolate Hotel! Chocolate-themed coffee breaks, a little pick-me-up during the day, and maybe even a team-building event?


What is an offsite?

An offsite is an event where a team gets together, not in the form of a typical office meeting, but outside their usual work environment. It doesn’t matter whether it’s a workshop lasting a few hours or several days; what matters much more is the location. How about Germany’s only chocolate hotel? We’re not just a popular destination for vacationers, but also for conferences! 

Offsite at the Chocolate Hotel

The Chocolate Hotel is an excellent choice for an off-site event. We have five rooms suitable for a wide variety of occasions. The rooms are air-conditioned, can be completely darkened, and feature high-speed Wi-Fi. In addition, all of our meeting rooms come equipped with the following standard amenities: Wi-Fi, projector, 2.5m x 2.5m screen, 1 flipchart, facilitator’s kit, 1 A5 notepad and 1 pen per person at each seat, a speaker’s breakfast on the first day for the trainer, and personalized support from the Chocolate Hotel team. Additional equipment can, of course, be booked as needed.

Of course, a little refreshment is a must during the day! That’s why we offer our Premium Praline Package, which includes a morning coffee break with healthy snacks and, of course, chocolate! Lunch is also included, served either as our popular lunch buffet or a 3-course menu of your choice. There’s also a coffee break in the afternoon.

How about a chocolate-themed team event? Create your own chocolate at the chocolate event or join our chocolatier to experience the exciting process of making pralines in our chocolate seminar. Fancy a chocolate and wine tasting? Travel with us through the vineyards of the world and experience the unique combination of wine and our chocolates from Original Beans.

There are also several excursion destinations in Ammerland for your team-building activities!

But what's the point of all this?

Simply stepping outside your usual surroundings can greatly stimulate creativity, leading to new and innovative solutions. It also greatly enhances team spirit—on the one hand, naturally, through group work, but on the other hand, as mentioned above, through potential team-building events

Focus and productivity are enhanced, as off-site locations typically offer a more focused work environment. Did you know that, in addition to meeting rooms, you can also rent group rooms from us? This allows for individual work or work in small groups without everyone having to be in the same room. 


Offsites are a valuable opportunity to gain new perspectives, spark creativity, strengthen team spirit, and advance strategic goals. By stepping away from the usual work environment and coming together in a new setting, new opportunities for growth and innovation open up. So why not harness the magic of offsites to break out of the routine—and enjoy some chocolate while you’re at it? The results could be impressive.
