Generally speaking, meetings are private, closed gatherings that are not open to the public or other parties. Private, smaller and more intimate spaces are better for these kinds of occasions. In contrast, events are typically larger and involve more foot traffic and activities. San Luis Obispo’s hotels and venues offer both meeting spaces and event spaces of all sizes.
