although it may seem like you have only just recovered from your last Christmas Party, we are approaching that time of year again, with businesses already scrambling to secure the perfect venue for company festivities. We at The RIVER thought we’d try and relieve some of that stress by highlighting a few of our favourite places to celebrate. The following three establishments each offer something different and are available to book now. So, pick your venue, give them a call today and see the stress of organising your Christmas party shoot off like a champagne cork!
Fine dining and classic cocktails…
The London Bridge Hotel offers a fantastically elegant aesthetic. Their five different conference rooms can hold parties of up to 100 people, but if you’d prefer fine dining to a drinks party then look to their themed Londinium restaurant, and its three-course Christmas menu which, including wine, is available at £42.50 per person.
Additional to its luxurious restaurant is the beautifully contemporary Quarter Bar & Lounge, where you can begin your Christmas celebrations with a classic cocktail or glass of chilled champagne.
This establishment will be especially appealing to party planners, as they are currently offering a complimentary overnight stay for two with a full buffet breakfast for the person who books with them. So, if you’re really looking to treat yourself and your staff this year, the London Bridge Hotel may be just the place!
