If your conference or meeting room doesn't contain the essentials to impress, your presentation or the event in general might be lacking than what it otherwise would. So take two steps back before you jump to conclusions which tell you not to take heed of what might be good for you.
Conferences and even small meetings need to be planned out properly in order to be efficient and worth the time. If you are presenting, it’s important to create a good impression of yourself that can support the points you are making and the things you are saying. The basis of judgment will depend on everything from how you carry yourself, to the clothes you are wearing, etc.

Credibility and reputation is what it comes down to. How comfortable the other people are while sitting through hours of lecture is far too important to ignore. So here are a few pointers to help you ace that meeting!
Reliable Multimedia
If you're not using multimedia for your presentation, you probably should be. Some people think it cramps their style, however the fact is that it will keep people interested long enough for you to get your point across, provided you present it in the right way. So hiring a place that has the technology readily available in place is a must. Most conference halls and meeting/function rooms will have these features available as standard. We’d advise going through a test run prior to the presentation, just to make sure everything’s working properly. The last thing you want is a technical fault mid-presentation.
Food
When the going gets tough, the tough gets going, old saying, new implementation. If you're planning to keep those people listening to you, then you've probably thought of making arrangements to appease their hunger. Usually, conference venues that double as a restaurant are a good option, saves you having to get a caterer in as the food’s all taken care of in-house!
Yourself
In the end of course, it’s you that will make a presentation successful. The external factors certainly help you create the proper impression but if your presentation is lacking, that’s what people will remember. So make sure you do ace that part! A great place, great confidence and substantial material are key to success. All in all, you’ll have to keep your mind open, reason out what you’ll have to do for good go and believe in yourself for a home run!
