Start to finish, everything was truly remarkable

The food was absolutely incredible, every bite was a reflection of the team’s commitment to quality and creativity, and it was a highlight of the evening for so many of our guests, the comments and feedback were amazing. The service was outstanding—everything ran smoothly, the professionalism, warmth, and attentiveness of the team did not go unnoticed. Every detail, from the way the food was presented to how the space was managed, was executed to perfection. A big thank you Rachel!

We were pleased to hold our event for the second year running at the Park Plaza. Rachel Alcantara was the events manager and was so helpful from start to finish. It was great to work with her on the run- up to the event, especially in the planning stages, and on the night itself. She made me feel at ease and was a phone call away if I needed any assistance.

The evening was faultless

The staff were delightful, the service immaculate and the food delicious! The room looked amazing and the blue lights and being able to project the image on the TV, made it look very atmospheric and absolutely perfect for our occasion. The award finalists, some of whom were visiting London for the first time, were absolutely bowled over by the views and fortunately we had a lovely evening which just added to it. Warm thanks to all involved for what was a most delightful and successful evening.

Thank you for all your hard work

I wanted to say thank you for all your hard work in preparation for, and at the party. The directors were very pleased with how it went and have all given positive feedback

Bridget, Many thanks to you and your teams for yesterday. We gave all of you a round of applause at the end (I think only a sound guy was in attendance at the time!) but wanted to pass on our thanks for the service you provided. The delegates were very impressed with the environs, the professionalism of your staff and enjoyed the food, refreshment breaks and sounds provided.
