Perfect for stand-up style events, it has the capacity to accommodate up to 50 guests, with banquette seating arranged around the edges, creating an intimate and sophisticated atmosphere.

Conveniently located adjacent to the Grand Bar, The Chapel promises not only a unique but also a memorable event experience. This carefully curated space combines elegance with functionality, offering an ideal backdrop for various occasions.

I love the venue, loved the location and received fantastic service and assistance - super flexible team.
I give venues one chance to impress me - most things about this venue did that - catering, not so much, very little food for the amount we paid, I would strongly suggest that they fix this aspect. However, the quality of the food was very, very good - just not value for money.
