Quick Summary
ITC on conference hall rent in a hotel is generally available if used for business and billed to the company GSTIN. ITC on food and beverages is normally blocked under Section 17(5), unless separately eligible. Separate invoices for hall rent and food help proper credit treatment.

The information I have learned is as follows; please confirm more authentication of this matter.
Under Section 17 ( 5 ) of the CGST Act,ITC on Food and Beverages etc are categorised as ineligible credit.However ,in case of ITC on Hotel Bill renting of conference or hall or room for busines purpose is not specifically covered under such section.
Further ,in terms of section 16 ( 4 ),ITC will be available on input or input services used or intended to used in the course or furtherance of business.Therefore ITC on loding, renting of conference hall or room for client meeting will be available except UTC charged on food and beverages consumed during the meeting..
I think if your GST No. is of same state you can take credit as hotel person charge there state CGST and SGST

It will depend upon two considerations, one is place of supply and another is wether the hotel raises bill as consolidated as per composite supply. 

ITC not available on composite supply Food Bill and rented hall bill. you may take seprate invoice 1 food and beveraged 2 conference hall bill for ITC.
