A method and a system for identifying candidate conference rooms based on attendee locations identifies conference rooms in accordance with proximity between the one or more conference rooms and the respective attendee locations. The method includes receiving a conference room scheduling request for a respective meeting. The request can include additional constraints such as requesting a recurring meeting over a period of time. The respective locations of the attendees for the respective meeting are identified, and then one or more conference rooms are identified in accordance with proximity between the one or more conference rooms and the respective attendee locations. Information concerning a respective conference room of the one or more identified conference rooms is then transmitted.
