Frequently asked questions

What should I look for when comparing conference hotels in Richardson?
Start with the size of the largest event space and how many people it holds. The Renaissance Dallas Richardson Hotel offers a largest space of about 12,000 square feet that accommodates up to 1,000 people, while the Hilton Richardson Dallas has a largest space of about 7,800 square feet for up to 800 people. Also check the number of event spaces (for breakout sessions or concurrent meetings) and the guest-room count to ensure the property can host your attendees comfortably.
How does billing work when I book a large room block for a conference?
Engine offers consolidated invoicing, so you get a single bill instead of managing dozens of individual receipts. You can choose from multiple payment options, and there's no membership fee to use the platform. This simplifies accounting and expense tracking when your team or event attendees stay across multiple nights.
What makes a hotel a good fit for hosting a big event or corporate meeting?
Look for a property with enough meeting space to handle your largest session and additional rooms for breakouts. The Renaissance Dallas Richardson Hotel has 23 event spaces and 335 guest rooms, so attendees can stay on-site. On-site amenities like AV, catering, and breakfast vary by property, so confirm those details with the hotel directly.
How do I book a block of rooms for conference attendees on Engine?
For a stay of 9 or more rooms, Engine Groups handles the room-block booking. For 8 rooms or fewer, you can book self-serve through the platform. If you also need meeting or event space, you can find and request a venue through Engine Spaces, Engine's meeting-and-event product that connects you to over 40,000 venues.
How easy is it to get to Richardson for a conference?
Richardson sits just north of Dallas and is served by Dallas/Fort Worth International Airport, about 20 miles away. Many attendees fly in and rent a car or arrange ground transportation. Staying at a hotel near the conference venue keeps logistics simple and cuts down on commute time during the event.
