Persian or Ottoman: choosing your suite

Two suites, one address. Which is right for the celebration you have in mind?

The Persian Suite, dressed for an intimate mehndi

Both suites carry the same standard of service and the same kitchen. What changes is the room — the scale, the light, and the celebrations they suit.

The Persian Suite — up to 250 guests

The Persian Suite is our smaller room, dressed in warm gold and burgundy with lower ceilings and a more intimate acoustic. It suits engagements, mehndis, walimas and smaller receptions where the family wants everyone in the same conversation.

Because the room is compact, floral and lighting programmes read very well, and even a modest budget produces a full-feeling space.

The Ottoman Suite — up to 750 guests

The Ottoman Suite is the grand hall. High vaulting, long sightlines and a stage designed to be seen from the back of the room. It suits full weddings, walimas over 300 guests, and any celebration where the entrance and the first dance need scale.

For guest counts around 500–750, the Ottoman is the only room in Greater Manchester of this style and capacity under a single family’s care.

Choosing between them

If your celebration is… Choose
Under 250 guests, intimate mehndi or engagement Persian Suite
250–450 guests, full wedding with dance floor Ottoman Suite
450–750 guests, walima or grand reception Ottoman Suite
Multi-day: mehndi + wedding + walima Both suites, across the days

Both suites together

Booked together, our combined capacity reaches 1,000 guests — useful for multi-day celebrations where the mehndi runs alongside setup for the main day.

To view either suite in person, arrange a private consultation.
