Verified Reviews of Conference Venues in Kensington
Lovely venue, secluded from main hotel, making it private and ideal for a memorable 18th party. Very friendly and welcoming staff and hotel manager. A very positive experience. Would recommend.
I dealt with Suey for my 30th Birthday, she helped me with all the organisation prior to the party. Other staff helped me on the day and my party went off without a hitch. I would highly recommend this venue. I had a magical night.
The staff at Ricco lounge were incredible. They took care of everything, were attentive to all my guests, and really made my birthday a night to remember. Everything was easy, the food was great, and the night was so much fun!
The owner was very communicative, really easy to work with. The venue is fascinating, really stylish with huge spaces and good quality furniture. Overall a great experience, thank you!
Excellent location - exceptional room and exquisite hotel. Staff were proactive, and incredibly helpful. Guests had a wonderful time. Made use of the Lounge Bar as well, which was wonderful.
The venue is beautiful, such a calm, serene place to hold a marketing workshop. There was lots of natural light and plenty of space for 20 people to move around. Solène and her colleagues were extremely helpful.
Beautiful quiet location yet easily accessible and very central to London. The quality & condition of the decor is exceptional. Desi was so friendly & helpful, will definitely use again & would highly recommend, thank you!
