Lake Forest Hotel Event Venue With AV Support for Meetings and Company Events

Residence Inn by Marriott Chicago Lake Forest/Mettawa is a hotel meeting setting with roughly 650-square-foot meeting room plus about 300-square-foot boardroom in Lake Forest. For private bookings, the property includes catering and AV options. The approximately 30-guest scale gives smaller events a defined setting where the entire group can remain connected. For gatherings in Lake Forest, on-site food service is especially useful for events that revolve around a meal, since the dining portion can remain part of the venue experience from start to finish. At Residence Inn by Marriott Chicago Lake Forest/Mettawa, lodging on site is a practical advantage for weddings, conferences, and company programs that include travelers or continue across more than one part of the day. Presentation technology gives corporate groups and private events a straightforward way to add screens, sound, slides, or video to the schedule.

The property works across business and social formats, from meetings and training sessions to wedding weekends, banquets, reunions, and company celebrations. For wedding groups, guest rooms close to the event space can make the transition from ceremony or reception to the end of the evening more comfortable for travelers. Business groups benefit from a setting already accustomed to schedules, breaks, meals, and attendee movement, while social groups gain the same service infrastructure in a more celebratory format. The property can also support smaller breakout conversations alongside a larger main gathering when multiple rooms are part of the event offering. Food service, lobby areas, guest rooms, and function space together give attendees several natural places to gather across the course of a longer event. For attendees, Residence Inn by Marriott Chicago Lake Forest/Mettawa provides a complete event environment where the organized program and the hospitality around it can share one property.
