I loved the venue, the rooftop is perfect when the sun is shining!
The fact there's only one toilet in the penthouse wasn't great with many guests eating and drinking.

Penthouse · 40 guests
An ideal place for intimate parties. A great terrace used by guests. I am sure I will definitely come back to this location. I highly recommend this place.
Very high price for optional multimedia (TV or projector). I THINK that a basic TV screen should be available. In our case, we only had one short advertising spot and unfortunately we had to give it up

The food and service was excellent. The catering staff walked amongst our guests with the trays of canapes and bowl food. The Penthouse is a lovely location to hold an evening event and we would definitely return there.
