The venue is large enough to control the expected crowd of your conference. You cannot let your guests suffocate within a small meeting room. Just look around for the perfect layout and discuss its capacity with the venue manager. It should be able to provide you with flexible seating arrangements. Maybe the pre-settable arrangement of classroom style is not what you require. Thus, discuss its flexibility before confirming your reservations.
It should be a walled structure rather than a glass one. When you have to give out presentations or speeches, these activities are performed better when you are within a walled or wooden structure. Glass structures create a distraction that should be at any cost. It should be a quiet setting. A cacophony of sounds will create disturbance in your meeting. Moreover, you won't be able to communicate well if a continuous raucous sound is penetrating your meeting room.
No need to look for beautiful backdrops while you are looking for the conference room. Just keep a check on the technical installations that are necessary for your event.

This would create a bright atmosphere even if it turns out to be a gloomy session.
Tea Room/Common Room
It is not humanly possible to attend a meeting for 6 hours at a stretch. Thus, during venue selection, it becomes important for you to check whether they have an adjoining break room where the delegates can relax and enjoy a brief tea time among themselves.
