Room Details
The Dorchester is the place to meet and celebrate. Any event assumes a special distinction - a grand banquet or less formal luncheon, business meeting or conference, private party, dinner or wedding. Whether for 5 or 500 people, the organisation combines detail and imagination to ensure that every function is well remarked and happily remembered. The Dorchester's new ballroom has opened after an extensive renovation. The original interiors by Alberto Pinto have been maintained, restored and enhanced. The major reworking however was carried out to the staircase making it grander and much more welcoming with Art-Deco inspired bronze finish balustrade. All floor finishes are now also in marble with water-jet borders. New chandeliers and completely restored wall sconces now make this space brighter and grander than before. As well as being some of the most beautiful banqueting & meeting rooms in London, The Dorchester also offers the latest technology including state-of-the-art Wi-Fi. Available for up to 50 connections at one time, Wi-Fi can be arranged by the hotel's dedicated team of e-butlers.
