A leading city centre hotel has seen Christmas come early after selling out a party night in headline-making time.
The Telegraph Hotel, the former Coventry Telegraph headquarters in Corporation Street, is running Christmas parties for businesses every Friday and Saturday this December.
And one night is already booked up, which is much earlier than expected according to an experienced industry professional.
Amy Windsor, the General Manager of the Telegraph Hotel, has worked in the hospitality sector for 27 years.
She said: “The interest in Christmas has been incredible and we’ve already sold out one of our party nights which is the fastest I can ever remember in all my time in the industry.
“There is a real feeling that businesses and organisations have missed the opportunity to bring their teams together to socialise over recent years – especially at Christmas – so they want to make sure they have got it all booked and reserved in advance.
“We are really pleased that we are proving to be a venue of choice for businesses and organisations in the region.”
The Telegraph Hotel opened in May 2021 and has proved to be a major draw with its Mid-Century themed fit out and plenty of nods to its former use as the offices of the Coventry Telegraph.
It is proving popular throughout the year with strong bookings for bedrooms as well as for dining in its Forme & Chase restaurant.
The Christmas menu features a delicious roast turkey dinner with all the trimmings and beetroot and red onion tarte tatin as the vegetarian alternative, as well as starter and dessert options.
Guests are treated to a glass of sparkling cranberry fizz on arrival and, after dinner, can dance the night away. They can also upgrade to stay for bed and breakfast.
Families and friends can book in for Christmas set menus throughout the festive period until December 20, while the Telegraph Hotel is also offering a special festive afternoon tea at the same time.
Amy added: “As well as being the place to be for Christmas parties, we will also be catering for families and friends too. It’s destined to be a really special period for the hotel as we continue to establish ourselves in the city centre after a positive first two years here.”
