Purpose- I had gone to their wedding shows twice on September 2007 and September 2008. I also seen the whole set-up of the ballroom and reception table for the wedding. This was my choice for wedding venue.
Location- Ten minutes walk from City Hall MRT station.
- Located between Funan Centre and Peninsula Plaza.
- Bus stop is right in front of the hotel.
Reception- Privately for the wedding event.
- Long and narrow corridor outside the main ballroom.
- Private cocktail bar is at the end of the corridor.
- It will be crowded if you have more than 200 guests on 2nd level.
Ballroom- Very classic and grand. Most importantly, it is a pillar-less ballroom.
- The ceiling is just nice for the height.
- It can accommodate up to 35 tables. (Minimum tables was 25)
- It will be spacious if your maximum capacity is 28 tables.
- There are 2 doors in the ballroom so the march-in is L-shaped with less than 2 minutes walk.
- There are 2 LCD projectors screen at the left and right side of the ballroom.
Stage Decoration- Very cramped, enough for the decor, wedding cake, champagne pouring and the speech box.
- Not recommendable for solemnisation.
- The stage is not high enough. Just 2-3 steps from the floor.
Ambiance- The feeling in the ballroom is cosy and grand.
Solemnisation- 3 great places for ROM, ie function room, waterfall and garden.
- Free rental at Waterfall area.
- Additional $300 (my estimation only) to rent their garden.
- If function room is available, the hotel allows you to use the room as complimentary.
Service- Banquet manager will make sure that their staff are clear of their duties.
- The staff will take charge of the whole event and make sure everything goes well.
- The waiters/waitresses are very attentive as they make sure you have your drinks or canapes.
Food- The food is served by the most popular restaurant called Park Palace.
- Shark fin soup and E-mian are the best.
Bridal Suite- Orchid suite is spacious and cosy although it look normal.
- Governor suite has private jacuzzi attached outside the room. Furnitures are big so the whole feeling made me feel very cramped in this room.
Address- 10 Coleman Street Singapore 179809
