The '''Grosvenor House Hotel''' is one of the largest and most famous Luxury Hotels in London. It was built in the 1920s on the site of the former London residence of the Dukes_of_Westminster, whose family name is Grosvenor. The hotel is on Park_Lane in Mayfair and is an outpost of London's largest cluster of luxury hotels, which is centred on Hyde_Park_Corner. The Great Room (which is a separate room to the Ballroom) at the Grosvenor House is the venue of many prominent awards evenings, charity balls and the like and is often seen on British television, and is one of the largest ballrooms in Europe, with a capacity of about 3000 (theatre style) or 1500 seated at 150 10 person round tables. The Grosvenor House Hotel is now owned by Royal Bank of Scotland, managed by Marriott_International and is undergoing a multi-million pound renovation and restoration. This includes a full refurbishment of all restaurants, guest rooms, health facilities, and public areas. Upon completion in late 2007 (or possibly 2008), the hotel will be renamed The Grosvenor House, a JW Marriott Hotel. ==See also== *Hotels_in_London *Great_hotels_of_the_world ==External links== *Official site Category:Hotels_in_London Category:Westminster
