Now, as well as being hugely popular with those looking for a cool place to stay in the city or to dine in the Forme & Chase restaurant, the Telegraph is welcoming local, regional and national businesses and organisations for everything from smaller meetings to more sizable conferences and events.
Event organisers have fed back positively on the mid-century style surroundings, and the nod throughout the hotel to the building’s past as home to one of the biggest regional newspapers in the country.
Amy Windsor, General Manager at the Telegraph Hotel, said: “The first reaction we get from people is ‘wow’! They love everything about the style and surroundings of the hotel. They can see that we have made every effort to be in-keeping with the building’s history – from the bar at the newspaper’s old reception desk through to the smallest details throughout.
“But, beyond that, they want to know that their meeting or event is in capable hands and that the team will provide the highest level of service. And that is exactly what they get – whether it’s a board meeting or a conference – and its why so many return to use again and again.
“There are a number of packages to choose from but we also like to be flexible and if you are organising an event and want to chat through what you are looking for, we can tailor it for you and, again, that’s something organisers really love."
The versatile Editors meetings and events space can accommodate up to 140 delegates and can be split with a soundproof patrician wall to enable two meeting spaces.
It is ideal for small to large meetings, networking events, team training days, presentations and private lunches and dinners.
Editors can also be transformed for special events such as private parties, gala and conference dinners as well as awards ceremonies.
While the Boardroom and Directors rooms offer a throwback to yesteryear as Lord Iliffe’s (a former owner of the Evening Telegraph) original meeting rooms.
They include many of the original features and are perfect for private meetings, interviews or training and can accommodate up to 12 delegates.
Day delegate packages start from £35 while the Telegraph’s green meeting package begins at £25 per head and puts sustainability at the heart of your event.
There are a whole range of menu options – whether it’s breakfast, lunch or evening dining – which have all been carefully crafted by the Telegraph’s chef to ensure all tastes are catered for.
