Opened in Portland Place in 1865 by the then Prince of Wales, this famous London hotel has welcomed royalty, dignitaries, celebrities, and international guests for over 160 years. Thought to be Europe’s very first ‘Grand Hotel’, The Langham Hotel offers elegant event spaces and world-class service, making it the perfect place to host a luxury wedding or a swanky corporate dinner.
We have been one of The Langham’s proud partners for some time and would love to introduce you to a space we believe should definitely be in the running for your next event.
The Langham Hotel: A Prime Central London Location
The Langham’s location is one of its biggest strengths. It sits on Portland Place, close to Regent Street, Oxford Circus, and Marylebone, giving guests easy access to central London while keeping a private feel.
Guests are welcomed by the hotel’s rather elegant exterior and enjoy soaking up the interior’s marble floors, grand chandeliers, and restored historic details. With over 2,500 square metres of flexible event space, it is a great choice for both intimate and larger celebrations, because many rooms interconnect. Something that isn’t always possible in central London.
The Grand Ballroom
The Grand Ballroom is a must-see and, if you have the numbers, definitely worth booking. With sparkling chandeliers, Renaissance-style pillars, and space for up to 375 guests, it is perfect for luxury weddings and gala dinners.
Palm Court
Palm Court, famous as the birthplace of afternoon tea, is one of the hotel’s most well-known spaces. Its Art Deco style, high ceilings, and sparkling chandeliers make it a great spot for receptions, engagement parties, and pre-event gatherings. It also connects directly to the Grand Ballroom for easy movement between events.
The Victoria Terrace
If you want an outdoor touch for your celebration, The Victoria Terrace offers a lovely open-air space with views of Portland Place. It’s perfect for summer drinks or evening cocktails.
Intimate Private Dining Rooms
The Langham also has several stylish private rooms, such as The Conservatory, The Brougham, Green Room, Snug, and Pantry. These spaces are great for smaller celebrations, engagement parties, rehearsal dinners, or business events.
Why The Langham Hotel is Perfect for Indian Weddings in Particular
The Langham’s many event spaces are perfect for multi-day weddings, from small mehndi parties and pre-wedding dinners to big receptions in the Grand Ballroom. And its luxury rooms are also a great choice for couples hosting guests from across the UK and overseas, which, for many Asian weddings, is a must.
There’s plenty of flexibility in how you customise your experience, too, whether you are looking for a traditional Mandap or something very modern. You can play with lighting, flowers, room-to-room flow, room layout and of course, your menu to give your guests the very best experience.
And that’s where we come in, Laguna. We can help you plan your luxury wedding from Mandaps to ceremonies and musical performances. We’ll also design a full menu for every moment your guests require refreshments with tantalising flavour sensations bound to impress.
