A successful event requires a suitably impressive and remarkable venue – and we have plenty to choose from at Red Carnation Hotels... From Ashford Castle in Ireland with its mighty towers and battlements, surrounded by emerald lawns and sparkling waters, to The Oyster Box in South Africa that overlooks the iconic lighthouse. Host your meeting or event at one of our hotels and discover the generous hospitality and exceptional service that we are renowned for, alongside beautiful design, carefully curated experiences, and delicious cuisine created by our award-winning Executive Chefs.
Our meeting rooms and event spaces each showcase the latest technology and equipment, but more than that, they are settings that inspire and motivate. Each of our hotels offer beautiful and restorative design, and curated art collections that connect our guests with the local destination.
Now, more than ever, it’s important to offer flexibility alongside exceptional service as the world transitions between virtual spaces and reality. We are proud of our transformative “hybrid” concept, which connects physical and virtual guests through an immersive and engaging experience.

As a family-owned and run business we really care about the environment. The Red Carnation Hotel Collection is proud to place huge emphasis on our sustainability initiatives. We know that a hotel’s eco-credentials are important to our guests, which is why we’re aiming to achieve carbon neutrality by 2030 or sooner.

Find out moreWe know that a business trip lasts much longer than the meeting or event itself, which is why we pride ourselves on ensuring that our hotels are comfortable and welcoming for business travellers. From in-room dining that is personalised, healthy and delicious, to thoughtful touches in every bedroom and a warm welcome for every guest, including solo female travellers, we place great emphasis on the guest experience.
We are proud that our hotels are ideally located to showcase the very best of each destination, with meaningful experiences that really connect our guests with the local community. In London, Geneva, and Edinburgh each hotel is close to the city's best attractions, while in Dorset, Guernsey, Ireland, and Africa our hotels are set in spectacular locations overlooking the ocean, wilderness or countryside.
