If you schedule your next conference/convention/trade show/reunion/retreat underneath the largest unsupported dome in the world, (except for the Astrodome) your attendees would never forget the experience!

Just ask Diane Sawyer, who summed up the West Baden Springs Hotel thusly:  “It’s so amazing!  Everyone in the country has to come and see this hotel!”

West Baden, Indiana, is a small town with a huge attraction: the famous West Baden Springs Hotel, known as the 8th Wonder of the World.  Seriously.

Its history is fascinating: the dome has been a monastery, a college, a ruin, and now a newly-restored piece of Americana with a background unlike and far more interesting than any other hotel/conference center you’ll ever encounter.

West Baden Springs Hotel

Address: 8670 WSR 56, West Baden
Phone: 812-936-9300

Extraordinary National Historic Landmark Hotel built in 1902 with a one-of-a-kind domed atrium spanning 200 feet and often called the “Eighth Wonder of the World.” Rooms rise six tiers around the dome and balcony rooms provide a panoramic view of the atrium. Restaurants, shopping, pools, golf, stables and full service spa.

The garden that the monks created has been restored, and is one of the most beautiful and romantic places in which to stroll that you’ll ever see.

My husband’s grandfather helped to tile the roof; the dome was so dangerous to climb around on that little pieces of scaffolding were nailed all over the dome, every few feet.  I went to a prom under the dome, more years ago than I’m likely to admit to any of you.

Your attendees will probably spend all of their free time just walking around this place, gawking and admiring and taking pictures of both the inside and outside of the dome and its grounds.

Golf?  Yes.  Spas?  Several.  Forget to pack something?  There are several retail outlets in the dome.

Huge conference/convention/trade show rooms and smaller meeting rooms available.

Vanderbilts, Astors, and Rockefellers have stayed here.   The Cubs, White Sox, Reds, and other major league baseball teams used to come here for spring training.  It’s been whispered that the famous local mineral water in West Baden might have had something to do with the Chicago Cubs’ World Series win that year!

PBS did a documentary about the West Baden Hotel’s restoration; if you order it and let your people watch it, you’ll all be convinced that this is the hotel for your next conference!!

Why don’t you plan to hold your next convention/conference/trade show/corporate retreat in scenic southern Indiana, at the West Baden Springs Hotel?

Don’t forget to bring your camera.
