The Ritz London

 

   

   

The Ritz London

Opened by renowned hotelier Cesar Ritz in 1906, The Ritz today still retains all the glamour and excitement synonymous with this world famous hotel.

Perfectly located in a landmark position on Piccadilly in the heart of London's West End, the 135 room luxury hotel is ideally placed to suit both business and leisure visitors alike. Now totalling 112 bedrooms and 23 suites, the elegant rooms combine the original Louis XVI style interiors with modern day technology.

In January 2002, The Ritz London received a Royal Warrant for Banqueting and Catering Services. Awarded by His Royal Highness The Prince of Wales, The Ritz is the first, and only, hotel to have been honoured with this prestigious award.

   


Meetings, Conferences and Private Dining Facilities

William Kent House, the Grade II* listed building adjoining the hotel, features an exquisite collection of lavishly decorated reception rooms. Designed in the 1740's by the renowned 18th century architect William Kent, the historic mansion was acquired by The Ritz in 2005. After an extensive period of
restoration and renovation, in keeping with its original décor, five new banquet and private dining rooms now provide The Ritz with a varied selection of the finest venue space for elegant dining, weddings, gala occasions and bespoke meetings.

The William Kent Room
The most opulent of all the banquet rooms, The William Kent Room is a spacious private dining room with seating for up to 24 for lunch or dinner. Featuring the most stunning original architecture in the house, the room is dominated by a breathtaking coved ceiling in grand Italian Renaissance style
which is highlighted in gold relief against a brilliant blue and red background.

The Queen Elizabeth Room
This delightful drawing room offers space for 30 guests and is licensed for wedding ceremonies. Overlooking Green Park and featuring an original marble fireplace, The Queen Elizabeth Room serves as an ante room to both the adjacent William Kent and Wimborne Rooms.

The Music Room
The largest salon in the house, The Music Room can accommodate up to 60 guests for a banquet dinner or 120 for a reception. With its gold leaf mouldings and slender Adamesque pilasters, this stately room epitomises the grand and graceful style of the house. The Music Room is also licensed for
weddings.

The Wimborne Room
Leading through from either The Grand Hall on one side or The Queen Elizabeth Room on the other, The Wimborne Room is an elegant boardroom, or private dining room, ideal for a corporate meeting or a small lunch or dinner party. Beneath a gilded ceiling hung with a crystal chandelier and yellow silken damask walls, the beautiful inlaid mahogany table can accommodated up to 16 guests.

The Burlington Room
A larger conference room, the Burlington Room, is situated on the first floor of the house and offers the perfect environment for formal meetings and presentations. Fully integrated, a magnificent 27 seat central board table features connections for up to six laptops and remote controls for the state of the art audio visual equipment. Conference delegates in the Burlington Room are ensured total privacy and discretion with individual technological arrangements tailor made to suit every requirement.

The Marie Antoinette Suite
Located off the Long Gallery and adjacent to the Ritz Restaurant, the Marie Antoinette Suite accommodates up to 100 people for cocktail receptions. Ornately decorated in the Louis XVI house style of The Ritz, the suite is a replica of a salon in the Palace of Versailles.

   

When you hold your reception, presentation or party at The Ritz, every event becomes an occasion.
