Pan Pacific London has announced that bookings are now open ahead of its official opening on 1 September.

The group’s first property in Europe, which was originally due to open last Autumn, is located on Bishopsgate near Liverpool Street Station. Boasting the largest ballroom in the City of London, accommodating up to 400, the 237-room property will offer a number event spaces.

The extensive 464sqm smart Pan Pacific Ballroom can be sub-divided into two separate rooms for smaller events and will provide direct access from Bishopsgate Plaza via a glass escalator and elevator. It will also have connectivity capabilities via a live feed to the VIP suite located in the pre-function area, which is able to accommodate 285 guests.

The ballroom will be complemented by the Level Five Meeting Rooms, which have been named after renowned coaching inns that were once located in and around the current hotel site from the mid-1400s.

With an 81sqm breakout area known as The Hub, Meetings Concierge and floor-to-ceiling windows, all meeting rooms will enjoy natural light most with views over the bustling Bishopsgate Plaza. Accommodating 294 guests, there will also be a Green Room facility for organisers when the space is exclusively hired across the five meeting rooms.

Meanwhile, the Level Three Creative Space will offer a more creative, relaxed, styled meeting space. Four meeting rooms with state-of-the-art technology are wrapped around a central area, accompanied by a home-style kitchen pantry stocked with snacks, beverages, and delicious breakfast and lunch options. This self-contained, comfortable space is also available for exclusive hire for 84 guests.

The hotel will offer an extensive health and wellbeing programme. From bespoke jet-lag programmes, treatments and experiences to aid sleep to wellness menus curated by an in-house nutritionist and extensive botanical planting throughout the hotel, every detail has been considered to maximise guest wellbeing.

Facilities include an 18.5m infinity pool with views over the Plaza; a high-performance interactive gym; treatment rooms; individual relaxation pods; sauna and steam rooms; unique mindfulness studio; and a dedicated living room for rest and relaxation.

Five innovative food and beverage venues led by multi award-winning Executive Chef Lorraine Sinclair and renowned Executive Pastry Chef Cherish Finden will incorporate unique elements of the flavour, diversity and elegance of modern Singapore.
