BEFORE AND AFTER THE BIG EVENT

Avoid the unnecessary demands of getting to and from the hotel on the day of your event by

ensconcing yourself in one of our fabulous designer rooms or suites. Each has a contemporary

feel, offering an individual look created by the cream of the interior design world, and each

comes with every imaginable creature comfort.

You can then relax and prepare for the big event in an atmosphere of absolute luxury and

calm. And, at the end of the day, wind gently down and sleep the sleep of the righteous in pure

linen sheets, on one of the most comfortable beds in the world.

For Honeymooners The Berkeley offers a tailor-made programme complete with champagne and

roses, fruit, traditional English breakfast and super-fluffy bathrobes to take home as a memento

of their First Night.

SO MUCH MORE TO ENJOY

The Berkeley is where the world’s beautiful people become that bit more beautiful according

to The London Times. The hotel’s Health Club and Spa boasts the only heated rooftop pool in

London, with views across Hyde Park and a sliding roof which opens to the sky in fine weather.

Luxurious treatment rooms provide a haven of relaxation in which to experience sublime facial

and body therapies that will sooth and energise, so that you will look your most radiant.

Get into the party spirit with our fashionista’s afternoon tea, Prêt-à-Portea, served in The

Caramel Room, or by sipping cocktails in Madonna favourite, the legendary Blue Bar. Should

your social event be more intimate, why not consider one of The Berkeley’s award-winning

restaurants, Pétrus or Gordon Ramsay’s Boxwood Café.
