From parties with friends and families to more corporate affairs, Kona Kai has got what it takes to throw a memorable event that stands out in people’s minds. The decor and cocktail menu combined offers a taste of the South Pacific, transporting you and your guests from the busy life of London into the warmer climates of Polynesia.

Belgraves

Belgraves is a business hotel in Central London, and it offers the top quality service and attention to detail that you would expect from such a venue. Beautifully appointed, the event spaces are able to host all sorts of different occasions, from breakfast meetings to book launches, and corporate drinks parties to wedding receptions. With all the elegance of a private members club, the sumptuous finish throughout is sure to impress, certainly setting the tone for a sophisticated event. The building’s great location means it sits close to several good transport links and so is well connected to the rest of the city.

Eclipse Chelsea

Eclipse Chelsea is a world-class cocktail bar, one that has become a firm favourite with locals, and it’s easy to see why. The clean and contemporary styling creates a relaxed atmosphere that makes this the perfect place to unwind with good company and a few drinks. So whether grabbing a quick drink after work or planning a lively night out for you and your friends (of whom there is space for up to a generous 150), Eclipse is available for partial hire for groups or private hire if you would prefer to utilise the space to its full. The nearest transport link is South Kensington, which can be reached in just 6 minutes.

The Royal Hospital Chelsea

The Royal Hospital Chelsea is also found close to the King’s Road and benefits from stunning views of the River Thames, sure to please both locals and first time visitors to London alike. There is a whole range of both indoor and outdoor spaces on offer here, with Grade I and Grade II listed buildings housing a plethora of striking period features and an abundance of elegance and charm, including beautiful architectural details and breath-taking decorative ceilings. This versatility means events can be held here for anywhere between 15 and 400 people.
