A more extravagant gala or wedding would be right at home in our Georgian-style Crystal Ballroom, which boasts a 25-foot gilded dome ceiling, illuminated dance floor and a graceful balcony for additional seating. The ballroom can host up to 500 distinguished guests and has housed many prominent gatherings in the past.

We also have a range of upscale meeting rooms available for gatherings of 150-250 people, including a room that once served as Ralph Capone’s speakeasy and lounge. You could even find yourself conducting business in a Hugh Hefner’s old office.
