At a glance
The Whitehall Ballroom
For the most dazzling of events, may we introduce our Whitehall Ballroom. Named after our historic address, this spectacular 678 sq m ballroom has seven-metre double-height ceilings allowing for dramatic staging and set design for creative product launches, parties and weddings. Secure rigging points are built in for advanced lighting and sound event production, so that the space can be used for everything from immersive meetings to artistic productions at West End theatre-level standards. It is even possible for a vehicle to enter the ballroom via two car lifts. Designed by acclaimed architect and interior designer Thierry W Despont to be an exceptionally versatile event space, the ballroom can be split into one third and two thirds, with fully soundproofed walls. Entered via the magnificent Grand Staircase, the Whitehall Ballroom has capacity for up to 600 people and is complemented by extensive pre-function space and six additional meeting rooms.
Groups at Raffles London
Raffles London’s unrivalled location lends itself as the perfect destination for group stays, corporate events and incentive programmes. This monument of culture once home to key political figures of the 20th century has undergone an eight year transformation to now include 120 rooms and suites, nine restaurants, three bars, one of London's largest ballrooms and historic meeting spaces some of which MI5 and MI6 were founded in.
