Meetings and Conferences
For banqueting or other events that require a multi-purpose room with high-tech lighting, our Monarch Suite is ideal. It is one of two convention suites that can each seat 1,700 theatre style or 1,100 for a banquet. You can build impressive stage sets with room to display a car, a helicopter or whatever else captures your imagination.
You can also make awards or prize presentations a real highlight of the event, with all the razzmatazz normally reserved for celebrities. Whether you want to project company logos, pin-spotlight individual tables or change mood instantly with sensational colour washes or computer-generated waves of light, we have the technology. A state-of-the-art kitchen also allows meals to be served within a matter of minutes.
Our Monarch Suite can host superb receptions for 1,900, conferences for 1,700 or banquets for 1,100. When divided, you can hold parallel meetings for up to 700 and 400 or 900 and 280. Back projection, high-tech lighting and room for 50 exhibition stands of 3 x 3 metres add to the effect.

King's Suite
Whether set up to seat 1,700 theatre style or split into two rooms, our King's Suite is one of London's finest conference spaces. Linked to the identically sized Monarch Suite directly below, it offers organisers an unprecedented level of flexibility. Back projection plus state-of-the-art sound and lighting technology make this perhaps the only peer of the Monarch Suite. A staircase carries delegates between the two suites.
The King's Suite has the capacity for receptions for 1,900, conferences for 1,700 or banquets for 1,100. It divides easily to hold parallel meetings for up to 700 and 400 or 900 and 280. It also offers back projection, high-tech lighting and room for 50 exhibition stands of 3 x 3 metres. Together, our two main rooms offer the possibility of a conference session taking place in one, while the other suite is transformed into your dining theme, giving you seamless transitions.
A heavy goods lift can carry up to 8,000 kg at a time to either suite from street level with ease.

The Palace Suite
This well-proportioned and versatile suite in the East Wing has been one of London's most popular conference venues since 1991. You can use it separately from the King's and Monarch Suites, or together with them to make the most space-hungry event possible. It can be divided into two or three sections for concurrent sessions, or used complete as a plenary session room linked with breakouts on the Mezzanine Level.
The Palace Suite should be your choice for receptions and conferences, with front projection for up to 1,100 (or up to 450 classroom style), banquets for up to 650 or dinner dances for up to 600. When divided you can hold parallel meetings for up to 300 and 250. For exhibitions there is room for 40 3 x 2-metre stands.

Mezzanine Level
Overlooking the hotel's main lobby and bar, and with natural daylight streaming in to every one of its ten meeting rooms, the Mezzanine is a relaxing area to catch breath and clear the head between sessions. It is very popular for breakouts, coffee breaks, hospitality suites and as a registration area for conferences held in the East Wing. Rooms can be connected to form three separate suites, or the whole space can be opened up to cater for receptions of up to 500 delegates. It also provides a change of scene for pre-dinner drinks if your delegates are dining in the Palace Suite.
The Mezzanine area comprises the Westminster Suite, with one room for up to 135 or three rooms for up to 40 delegates each; the Park Suite, with one room for up to 130 or two rooms for up to 50 delegates each; the Thames Suite, with one room for up to 120 or four rooms for up to 25 delegates each; and the Clarence Room for up to 50 delegates. They all share a wide balcony that is ideal for setting up coffee and light catering points or for conference registration.
