About this space

Terrace is a private outdoor space in The Place Hotel, a covered rooftop terrace defined by sheltered lounge seating.

Design: The terrace uses a neutral palette and contemporary materials, with rattan-style seating and tiled flooring arranged into informal bays. Slim columns, planted screens and low dividing walls create discreet seating zones and maintain sightlines across the space.

Features: The terrace offers a mix of sofas, armchairs and bar-height tables that can be rearranged to suit different formats. Freestanding patio heaters and integrated overhead lighting keep the area usable after dusk. Natural daylight reaches the space through open sides and the hard-surfaced floor simplifies setup and cleaning.

Ideal for: Small social groups seeking a relaxed, lounge-style standing reception or informal seated drinks in a sheltered outdoor setting.

What sets it apart: An on-site PA system and permission to play your own music let hosts run playlists or amplified audio without external sound hire.

What guests say: The hotel's event areas are modern and clean with high-quality interiors, and the bar and suites attract positive comments for their well-maintained, contemporary fit-outs.

Christmas Party · 100 guests · December 2023

the venue was amazing , all dressed up for Christmas. We loved the size of the space and having our own bar. The staff were very friendly and helpful throughout the evening. Drinks tokens were great to have.

The food was OK, but could have been better.

FAQ

Yes. External singers or guitarists may be hired, provided that all entertainment complies with the venue’s licensing requirements.

Yes, all on-site furniture is included in the pricing. The terrace has low tables and couches, as well as ping pong and foosball tables if required; however, accommodating larger groups comfortably may mean that not all furniture can be used and not every guest will have a seat.

No, guests cannot connect directly to the PA system, but they can send a playlist in advance for the venue to play during the event.
