** PLEASE NOTE THESE ARE THREE SEPARATE SPACES ** The Lancaster Ballroom at The Savoy is one of the largest, most glamorous, and most historic ballrooms in London. Named after the Duchy of Lancaster, and designed by French architect René Sergeant after an 18th century Parisian salon, it first opened in 1910, and still retains much of its original opulent Edwardian décor. This sizeable space, with no internal pillars to impede the view or the experience is one of London’s most renowned locations for grand receptions, weddings, conferences, luncheons and dances. Unique in London, the Lancaster Ballroom has its own stage, but the height and scale of this room lend themselves to imaginative temporary additional staging if required. The Lancaster Ballroom is often used in conjunction with the adjoining Parlour Room. With a view over Embankment Gardens towards the Thames, and a fresh light interior, the double-height River Room is both a delightfully bright daytime venue, and a sophisticated and elegant evening space. A large central archway between the two halves of the room offers flexibility in configuring this space, with concealed floor-to-ceiling dividers offering an even more private experience if required. Combining elegant grandeur with intimacy and warmth, the River Room is not only perfect for private dining and special parties, but also acts as a spacious and stylish wedding reception room for larger events taking place in the Lancaster Ballroom. The elegant high-ceilinged Edwardian-style Abraham Lincoln room has the distinction of being the original banqueting room at The Savoy. Used alone, the room is the perfect size for business luncheons, conferences, formal dinners and dinner dances; the ideal space for banqueting in London. The adjacent art deco Manhattan room is often used in conjunction with the Abraham Lincoln room, as a dedicated reception room. Both rooms benefit from their own private foyer and cloakrooms.
