London Heathrow Marriott Hotel has been awarded Best Hotel for Events at the prestigious London Venue Awards.
Beating strong competition from a variety of respected properties, the four star hotel’s extensive events facilities were judged best in London for providing creatively designed, inspiring spaces that use state of the art technology to offer unrivalled versatility.
The popular business and leisure venue recently underwent an impressive transformation, which included 14 fully redesigned, multi-purpose meeting rooms within 1,800 square metres of refurbished space.
The new facilities offer an event room capacity of up to 480 people with an additional six meeting rooms, all equipped with innovative technology such as Write on Walls, Barco Clickshare, LED screens and Bluetooth sound bars.
Also recognised was the hotel’s implementation of Marriott International’s Meetings Imagined concept – an industry first that gives event planners the tools and resources to create engaging and memorable experiences for delegates through seven meeting purposes designed to offer the hotels greater insight into the objectives of the meeting and provide inspiration and recommendations.
The London Venue Awards judging panel commented: “This newly refurbished venue offers great flexibility for a variety of events, and has an enthusiastic and creative team.
“For a large hotel, the personality of the team really came through. Coupled with the refurbishments and the Meetings Imagined concept, the hotel deserves a high score.”
Talking about the award win, general manager, Ron Vos, said: “We’re thrilled that our new events space has been deemed the best in the capital city. We’ve moved away from the traditional and now look to offer our visitors innovative, modern solutions that play a pivotal role in delivering guest satisfaction.”
