Quick Answer

What is included when I book a conference room at Amata? Every booking includes AV equipment, high-speed Wi-Fi, and professional reception that greets your guests by name. Rooms are booked in 15-minute increments. Small rooms from $55/hr; large boardrooms from $165/hr. No food and beverage minimums, no setup fees, no platform markup. Amata members pay as little as $37.40/hr with pre-purchased coins.

What Makes a Meeting Room Worth Paying For — and What You're Actually Getting.

What is the true total cost at Amata?
The rate you see is the rate you pay. AV equipment, high-speed Wi-Fi, room setup, and professional reception are all included. No catering minimums, no AV surcharges, no setup fees, no platform markups. The total cost of a meeting at Amata is predictable before you arrive.
What are Amata Coins and how do they work?
Coins are Amata's pre-paid currency for conference rooms, day offices, and on-demand staff. Amata members pre-purchase at $0.68/coin — locking in a 32% discount from the $1.00 standard rate. Small rooms cost 55 coins/hr (effective member rate: $37.40). Stack with half/full-day bookings for an extra 32% off. Coins remain valid while your membership is active.
What's a day office and when is it the right choice?
A day office is a private space for individual use — suited for confidential work, focused productivity away from home, a sensitive client conversation, or a one-on-one meeting that doesn't require a boardroom table. Day offices use the same spaces and same pricing as small conference rooms. Virtual Office Plus members get 2 free per month.
Why does the professional setting matter?
Clients form impressions in the first 90 seconds. Walking into a Class A Loop office building, being greeted by name at reception, and sitting in a properly equipped meeting room tells a different story than a coffee shop, a home office, or a generic coworking floor. The room is part of the impression — and Amata's rooms have been making it for over two decades.

Amata Coins — The Smarter Way to Book

Pre-Purchase Coins.
Lock In Your Lowest Rate.

Coins are Amata's pre-paid currency for conference rooms, day offices, and on-demand support staff. One currency. Multiple uses. Members save 32% before the discount even starts.

One currency — rooms, offices, paralegal, admin & marketing support

Book smarter with coins.

Pre-purchasing locks in your lowest rate — stacking coins with half-day or full-day bookings unlocks deeper discounts. Coins roll over while your membership is active.

Common Questions

What to Know Before You Book.

Every booking includes AV equipment, high-speed Wi-Fi, and professional reception that greets your guests by name when they arrive. Rooms are booked in 15-minute increments — you pay only for the time you use. There are no food and beverage minimums, no setup fees, and no platform markups. The rate you see is the rate you pay.
Small conference rooms (also used as day offices) are $55/hour at list price, $200 for a half-day (up to 4 hours), or $330 for a full day (up to 9 hours). Large boardroom-style conference rooms are $165/hour at list price, $595 for a half-day, or $1,000 for a full day. Amata members who pre-purchase coins at $0.68/coin pay an effective rate of $37.40/hour for small rooms and $112.20/hour for large rooms. Stacking coins with half or full-day bookings unlocks an additional 32% discount.
Amata Coins are a pre-paid currency for conference rooms, day offices, and on-demand staff support. Amata members — Private Office, Virtual Office, and Virtual Office Plus — pre-purchase coins at $0.68 per coin, a 32% discount from the standard $1.00 rate. Small rooms cost 55 coins per hour ($37.40 effective), large rooms cost 165 coins per hour ($112.20 effective). Coins can also be applied to paralegal, admin, and marketing support labor. They remain valid while your membership is active.
No. Anyone can book Amata conference rooms. Non-members book at list price, must accept Amata's Terms and Conditions, and prepay at the time of reservation. Coins are available to non-members at $1.00 per coin. Business Address and Live Reception members book using coins at $1.00 per coin and are billed on their next invoice. Only Private Office, Virtual Office, and Virtual Office Plus members access the $0.68 member coin rate.
Hotels require food and beverage minimums — you pay for catering whether you want it or not. AV and setup fees are typically charged separately, adding 20–40% to the stated rate. Hotel meeting space is generic ballroom or event space, not a professional office environment. Amata's rooms are in Class A Loop office buildings. AV and Wi-Fi are included. No catering minimums. Professional reception greets your guests by name. The total cost at Amata is the rate you see — no surprises on the invoice.
Aggregators like LiquidSpace and Davinci add platform markups to the venue's rate — you pay more than the venue charges for direct bookings. With Amata, you book directly at published rates. No platform fees, no intermediary. You also get Amata's locally based team managing your booking personally, live reception that greets your guests, and five locations under one account with a consistent experience at each.
Cancellations must be made at least 24 hours before the start of your reservation. Late cancellations — those made with fewer than 24 hours of notice — are billed at full cost. No-shows are also billed at full cost. Pre-purchased Amata Coins are non-refundable and non-transferable between accounts. Coins remain valid as long as your membership is active.
Yes. Amata's small conference rooms double as day offices for individual use — same spaces, same pricing. A day office is a private space for focused individual work, confidential phone calls or conversations, or one-on-one meetings that don't require a boardroom table. Book by the hour ($55/list), half-day ($200), or full day ($330). Virtual Office Plus members receive 2 free day office days per month.
Yes. Amata's Virtual Office plans combine a Chicago Loop business address, mail handling, community access, and member conference room coin rates — from $205/month pre-paid annually. Virtual Office Plus ($368/month pre-paid annually) includes 2 free day office days per month and 204 Amata Coins per month, reducing your effective hourly rate to $37.40 for small rooms. Both plans are eligible for the up-to-3-months-free promotion (months 1 and 2 free on a 12-month plan).
Contact Amata directly by phone at 312-924-0200 or by email at inquiry@amataoffices.com. Our team confirms availability, walks you through room options and pricing for your preferred location and date, and handles the booking. Rooms are booked in 15-minute increments. Non-members must prepay at reservation. Members with pre-purchased coins apply them at the time of booking. No self-serve portal — you work with a real person every time.
