We are your space for boutique events
Running along the western edge of Buckingham Palace Gardens, and just minutes from Hyde Park Corner and Victoria tube stations, Grosvenor Place boasts a rich history dating back to the 18th century and offers today an easy access to many of London’s most renowned landmarks, including Harrods, Apollo Victoria Theatre, Park Lane, Piccadilly, and Green Park.
With exceptional attention to detail, The Embassy and its spacious ground floor have been lovingly reverted back to its original décor with high ceilings, sparkling chandeliers, and hand-painted walls and mouldings. Designer furniture from Jonathan Adler, Andrew Martin, and Timothy Oulton are combined with original Louis Philippe mirrors and create an atmosphere, grand enough for even the most demanding client.
Luscious fabrics, discrete lighting and designer pieces transfer the original vault rooms on the lower ground floor into a unique break-out area, ideal for smaller groups and in the future intended for art exhibitions.
Established in the actual bank vault, the Palladio Room offers the perfect space for private meetings and conference calls, its beautiful wallpaper, fabulous mirrors, and the mural print of the original Buckingham Palace make this a one-of-a-kind experience.
