London is almost exploding with options for your next Christmas party, but if anything, that can make choosing the right venue almost trickier. Whether it be a festive shindig for family, friends or the office do, you'll need a spot with plenty of capacity, a seasonal feel, great in-house catering and a location that suits all - and well, we think we've found the place.
The Mandeville Hotel has a fantastic location in the heart of Marylebone, not far from the tube station and in one of the city's most beautiful areas - we're sure none of your guests will groan about coming to this part of town. The hotel is housed in a sprawling, period building that has a decidedly Dickensian feel, perfect for the most festive time of year, and promises lots of heritage architecture inside.
Well versed in hosting private events, The Mandeville Hotel boasts six private dining options which can be hired out for your Christmas party. If you're looking at going big and throwing the party of the year, consider The MacLaren Hall, a huge space with majestic windows, gleaming wooden walls and a carved ceiling. Here, you can host up to 100 guests for a sit-down meal and potentially more for a cocktail reception, just chat through your wants and needs with the brilliant in-house team.
For a more intimate space, take a look at options such as The Voyager Room or The Private Dining Room which can cater for between 20 to 40 people. But, we really like the idea of taking over The Mandeville Hotel's restaurant, The Reform Social & Grill. Inspired by old school Gentleman's clubs, it's got big, sinkable chairs and plush, leather banquettes, plenty of atmosphere and rustic touches.
You can host over 100 people here for food and drinks and really go for it, hosting the party of the year. Just chat to the events team about your ideal menu and any seasonal touches you'd like to make, and they'll be happy to help.
