About this space

With its unique shape, the Athena Room can host cocktails or welcome receptions for up to 150 guests. With a central column that nicely divides the space, it also works well for small seminars where a breakout or drinks area is required.

For private functions the space works beautifully with its private bar and an area for dancing and a DJ. Our Events team is available to assist with table layouts and specific requests and any other creative services you may need.

CAPACITY: Theatre 150 | Classroom 18 | Boardroom 45 | Lunch/Dinner 130 | Reception 150
