Claridge's, the epitome of grand English style, is situated on the corner of Brook Street and Davies Street and is within easy reach of Hyde Park, Park Lane, Bond Street and Oxford Street. For over a century the hotel has enjoyed the patronage of the most illustrious families, leaders and dignitaries from around the world. Showcasing the highest standards for hospitality and service, this society venue has received numerous prestigious awards in its distinguished history.

New York-based designer Thierry Despont was brought in to revitalize the Foyer area. Using archive photographs of the Ballroom Extension that dated from the early 1930s as inspiration, the space was completely made over in a modern art deco style, with a stunning, and completely up-to-the minute Dale Chihuly chandelier as its centerpiece. A dramatic and notable way for Claridge's to enter the 21st Century. Thierry Despont went on to create Gordon Ramsay at Claridge's, London's most glamorous restaurant
