There are few hotels near London that can boast such accessibility; just 2 minutes from the M20, 5 minutes from Eurostar and Le Shuttle, 37 minutes by high-speed rail link to London St Pancras, 60 minutes from Gatwick Airport and 90 minutes from Heathrow.

So, if you’re inviting international delegates from across the continent and need a convenient, accessible location, look no further, our Ashford conference venue can offer you it all.

Our location at the Ashford International Hotel is equally enviable as we’re just 26 minutes by high-speed rail link from Stratford, home to the 2012 Olympic village and the heart of the action.

19 state-of-the-art conference and meeting rooms for up to 400 delegates were part of a £10 million refurbishment programme and offer you total flexibility, ideal for annual international conferences, product launches, strategy meetings, exhibitions or board meetings.

And if work all gets a little too much, take some time out and relax in our leisure club or seek a little tranquillity in our spa.

Masonic Events & Ladies Festivals

For flexibility in terms of package we can offer as much or as little as you require. If you require an extra meeting room during the day we can do it. If you would rather silver service at your event we can deliver with aplomb. Or should you require a disco for the second evening to be built in to your rate we can make the most of fantastic partnerships we have and do just that.

No request is too much for any QHotel - we understand that whatever your event, it is vital that it goes without the slightest of hitches as ultimately this would reflect negatively on you.
