Elevating the Event Experience: From Hybrid Meetings to Grand Ballrooms
The renovation extends beyond the hotel’s guest areas, focusing on enhancing the event experience. The 35 event spaces and meeting rooms, including two dedicated hybrid meeting rooms and three magnificent ballrooms, are undergoing an extensive transformation. From the impressive Richmond Suite spanning 1,062 Square Metres (11,431sqf) to the Kensington Suite with its elegant open foyer and capacity for up to 1,350 guests, these spaces will offer unparalleled flexibility and functionality for events of all sizes.
