Here are some inspiring outside spaces.

Importantly, it has an outdoor space which includes a private courtyard and a grassy area. The smaller garden terrace is 92-sqm, whilst the larger garden terrace is 205-sqm. The mix of indoor and outdoor spaces means that, should the rain come down – as is often the case in Bangkok – delegates will have an indoor space to shelter.

The garden:
Hong Kong is known for its concrete canyons, but the city can actually offer some special green spaces. Hosting events outdoors is a refreshing change for city-weary delegates. This particular venue also features a rooftop pool, meaning that the inability to resist an impromptu pool party might be no more than a few glasses of champagne away.
