Along with five gourmet restaurants and a variety of vibrant entertainment outlets, the hotel promises a refined yet dynamic experience in the heart of London. The star of the show however, is the grand ballroom accommodating up to 1,000 guests which will be of the largest in London — making this a premier destination for a range of corporate occasions and large scale events.
