Testimonials
Dear Simon and team
Please pass on our thanks from Chambers. From the reception staff and event manager through to the chefs and kitchen personnel what a wonderful night we had last week.
Back at the Merchants Hall after a couple of years, everyone commented on how lovely the venue is, the décor and furnishings.
The food from the canapes through to the cheese course, together with the wine pairings meant that everything tasted delicious. Finally, the post dinner entertainment meant that this year, there was nothing left to chance.
Thank you all for a fantastic event.
Merchants’ Hall was a wonderful setting for my mother’s 100th birthday celebration lunch. Our guests enjoyed the fascinating talk on the history of the Hall at the end of lunch. My mother was positively glowing with the excitement of it all. We hope to find an excuse for another party at Merchants’ Hall before too long!
Merchants’ Hall is magnificent, complete with a splendid ambience and outdoor access into a beautiful garden. The dinner was a memorable event enjoyed by all.
“The skill and professionalism of the staff throughout the event was admired by all.”
“Sincere thanks to all at Merchants’ Hall for hosting our prestigious HM Lord-Lieutenant Awards ceremony. Your professional team provided attentive support both in the lead up and during the event itself.”
