Thousands of happy delegates this year,<br />
and counting…<br />
We’ve had a busy year at <strong>Hilton</strong> <strong>London</strong> <strong>Metropole</strong>. As one of Europe's biggest and<br />
best-connected hotel and conference centres, we have quite a reputation to uphold.<br />
We may have won awards for our services, space and flexibility but, as they say in<br />
Theatreland, you’re only as good as your last review. So we’ve collected together<br />
some recent testimonials from the hundreds of clients for whom we’ve helped host<br />
and organise conferences and events throughout the year.<br />
We endeavour to continue providing our clients with the finest facilities, service<br />
and support to retain our reputation as one of <strong>London</strong>’s biggest and best hotels<br />
for conferences and events.<br />
High street giant HMV held their<br />
two-day games conference,<br />
showcase and awards ceremony here.<br />
After presentations, games trials and<br />
a gala dinner serenaded by Amy<br />
Winehouse, HMV’s events manager<br />
sang our praises:<br />
“The event was very good.<br />
The facilities at the hotel<br />
are excellent and delegates<br />
were particularly<br />
impressed with the food.<br />
I’m very happy.”<br />
Accenture also hosted a two-day<br />
conference with us, inviting 900<br />
delegates. “It was an outstanding<br />
success,” their events organiser<br />
ventured. “Your attention to detail over<br />
all requests, especially the numerous<br />
breakouts and the team activities, was<br />
fantastic. Accenture were delighted.”<br />
As well as our experienced C&B Guest<br />
Services Managers, our talented team<br />
of chefs have received plenty of praise<br />
this year at the <strong>Hilton</strong> <strong>London</strong> <strong>Metropole</strong>.<br />
The Comedians’ Golfing Society,<br />
chipped in with “Thank you, thank<br />
you, thank you for everyone’s help<br />
at our event. The food was wonderful<br />
and everything was as promised<br />
and nothing appeared too<br />
much trouble.”<br />
Computer People were<br />
powerfully enthusiastic about their<br />
awards dinner:<br />
“Everyone said it was<br />
‘one of the best’ –<br />
again! (It must be the<br />
hotel!). The food was<br />
fantastic – please<br />
compliment the chef and<br />
his team. We’ve held our<br />
awards at the Met for<br />
3 years now and I am<br />
looking forward to the<br />
next time.”<br />

A breath of fresh air<br />
At <strong>Hilton</strong> <strong>London</strong> <strong>Metropole</strong>, regular<br />
refreshment doesn’t just mean<br />
keeping delegates topped up with<br />
tea and coffee. With thousands of<br />
corporate guests visiting the hotel<br />
each year, we like to ensure our<br />
facilities always look their best.<br />
and luxurious linens to make every waking<br />
– and sleeping – moment a pleasure.<br />
We’ve also refurbished our conference<br />
and banqueting suites to the tune of<br />
£500,000, making it a joy to present<br />
the most up-to-date facilities.<br />
All meetings great and small<br />
It’s our aim to make your meetings<br />
more efficient, eco-friendly and<br />
personalised, in sophisticated,<br />
media-ready boardrooms and<br />
multi-purpose rooms, while providing<br />
a service that inspires guests and<br />
respects the environment.<br />
That’s why we’ve invested £2 million to<br />
create vibrant new interiors for our Deluxe<br />
guestrooms, introducing new furniture<br />
Pop-up and smell the coffee<br />
And whether you’re staying with us for<br />
business or pleasure, you’ll now enjoy<br />
Wi-Fi access in most of our bedrooms.<br />
Caffè Cino now has three PC terminals<br />
for you to catch up with emails over<br />
a fresh coffee, pastry or tasty snack.<br />
Pop along to our informal café beside<br />
the lobby and watch the world go by<br />
as you surf the world wide web.<br />
We may be famous for hosting<br />
3,000-delegate events and black-tie<br />
banquets for 1,000, but that doesn’t<br />
mean our smaller meeting clients<br />
receive any less attention. <strong>Hilton</strong><br />
<strong>London</strong> <strong>Metropole</strong> has the capacity<br />
to run 30 sessions<br />
simultaneously throughout our<br />
40 meeting and conference rooms,<br />
supported by our team of events<br />
managers, A/V experts and<br />
enthusiastic chefs.<br />
It’s now even easier for meeting<br />
organisers to make multiple guest<br />
and meetings reservations 24/7<br />
with Guest List Manager. Giving you<br />
access to a Personalised Online<br />
Group web page, you can book<br />
directly while accessing and<br />
sharing customised information<br />
with your attendees.<br />

We’ve got the best connections<br />
Our exceptional location, overlooking<br />
the attractions of Oxford Street<br />
and Marylebone, means Heathrow<br />
Airport is only 15 minutes away<br />
via the Heathrow Express from<br />
Paddington station, a short walk<br />
from our doorstep.<br />
If you prefer the train to the plane, we’re<br />
just 10 minutes from the new St. Pancras<br />
EurostarTerminal, offering speedy access<br />
into Europe. And if you’re travelling by car,<br />
you’ll be pleased to know we are outside<br />
<strong>London</strong>’s Congestion Charge zone, as well<br />
as being conveniently close to major link<br />
roads for both the M40 and M1.<br />
Big steps towards a smaller<br />
carbon footprint<br />
With more than a little help from<br />
our green-thinking guests, in the<br />
last year <strong>Hilton</strong> <strong>London</strong> <strong>Metropole</strong><br />
has recycled the weight of 44<br />
<strong>London</strong> buses in waste, re-pulped<br />
enough paper to make up for<br />
10,238 felled trees and reduced<br />
enough electricity usage to run<br />
a colour TV for 239 years.<br />
Thanks to your support, we’re<br />
making the right sort of impact<br />
on environmental issues.<br />
Look out for our posters on your<br />
next visit to the hotel for<br />
more information.<br />
Front runner<br />
We’ve always known our Front of House Manager<br />
was a star, and at last she’s getting the extra<br />
recognition she deserves. Chiara DiRenzo has<br />
been short-listed for a Hotel Cateys award – the<br />
equivalent of being nominated for an Oscar in<br />
the hospitality industry. We’re sure she’ll outclass<br />
all the other Front of House management<br />
competition, and wish her the very best of luck!<br />
