What are the capacity limits for the Dining space and what seating arrangements are available?

The Dining space can accommodate up to 16 guests for boardroom meetings, 16 guests for round table dining, or 25 guests for standing receptions. The room was once the bedroom of the Dowager Duchess of Rutland and features large gold mirrors with stunning views over Green Park, making it ideal for intimate meetings or dinners.

Does Six Park Place offer dry hire or is catering mandatory?

Six Park Place does not offer dry hire due to limited kitchen facilities available to external caterers. All bookings must use the venue's in-house catering services, and there are minimum catering spend requirements that vary by space and event type.

What are the typical minimum catering spend requirements?

Minimum catering spend requirements vary by space and event size. Examples from venue communications show minimum spends ranging from £1,500 to £6,000 plus VAT depending on the room and guest numbers, though specific minimums for the Dining space are not detailed in available information.

What is included in the venue's dinner packages and pricing?

Dinner packages typically include arrival drinks, three-course meals with tea and coffee, wine service, room hire, event management, and cloakroom service. Package prices range from £137-£244 plus VAT per person depending on the specific package and minimum guest requirements, with most packages requiring minimum numbers of 30-100 guests.

What are the standard access times and how flexible are they?

Standard access times vary by event type, with examples showing access from 14:00-22:00 for garden events, 18:00-23:00 for dinner events, and 08:00-17:00 for day conferences. The venue appears to offer some flexibility on timing based on specific event requirements and availability.

What additional charges should I expect beyond the base package price?

A discretionary 12.5% service charge is added to all food and beverage invoices (you can opt out by informing the team before final invoicing). Additional costs may include entertainment, decorations, piano hire (£200 plus VAT plus tuning), and any special equipment or services not included in standard packages.

What is the booking process and deposit requirements?

To confirm booking, provide written confirmation with contact details and billing address. A signed contract plus deposit (100% of room hire and minimum catering spend, or 100% of package price based on minimum numbers) is required within one week of confirmation.

Are there restrictions on music, entertainment, or decorations?

The venue operates as a members' club, so entertainment must be approved in advance and kept in keeping with the clubhouse environment. For garden events, only jazz, classical, or acoustic background music is permitted, and all suppliers and entertainers require advance approval from the events team.

Can dietary requirements and menu choices be accommodated?

All guests are typically served the same menu with exceptions for dietary requirements. If you want choice menus (maximum 3 options per course), there's a supplement of £11 plus VAT per person that applies to the total guest count.

Is overnight accommodation available for guests?

Overnight accommodation is available at the venue's Clubhouse on the night of your event, subject to availability. For reservations or more details, you need to contact the venue's Reservations Department directly.
