Dorchester Collection Academy
Inspiring spaces
Our academy has seven state-of-the-art training rooms, named after the destinations of our hotels, designed with the learning experience in mind.

Beverly Hills
Creating a unique environment for senior leaders, our Beverly Hills suite is ideal for one-to-one executive coaching, private meetings, interviews, strategic meetings and C-Suite discussions.
A safe haven for leaders to step away from the busy day-to-day operational business challenges, this room provides time to reflect for deep-level strategic planning. It’s a space which inspires innovation and allows great minds to flourish. A different place for an entirely different way of thinking.
- Room size: Size: 24m² / 258ft²
- Capacity: Capacity: 6/8

Paris
Size: 42m²/452ft²
Seated capacity: classroom (12), cabaret (12), theatre (32)
A sleek look, as you would expect of Paris, this room has a glass panel wall and specialist acoustics for excellent soundproofing. It’s also designed to easily connect to its equally elegant neighbour, Milan, to form a larger space or breakout area.

Milan
Size: 30m²/323ft²
Seated capacity: classroom (9), cabaret (12), theatre (25)
Milan makes a stylish statement with its clean lines and is popular for a classroom style set up, although this can easily be altered to any configuration you prefer. It also connects with neighbouring Paris to form a long single room if desired.

Los Angeles
Size: 45m²/484ft²
Seated capacity: classroom (18), cabaret (20), theatre (42)
Situated at the far end of the academy, this room benefits from a particularly secluded setting and we find that a cabaret or cluster formation works really well in here, especially when splitting into smaller groups of two or four people. Large groups also find it a useful starting pointing before breaking out into the neighbouring Paris and Milan rooms.

Ascot
Size: 45m²/484ft²
Seated capacity: classroom (16), cabaret (20), theatre (40)
This is the largest of all our meeting spaces and features a floor-to-ceiling frosted glass panel running along one of the longest walls. The rectangular room Lends itself to a U-configuration with plenty of space for the facilitator to walk around and interact with delegates.

Rome
Size: 44m²/474ft²
Seated capacity: classroom (16), cabaret (20), theatre (32)
Thanks to its square dimensions and spacious size, you’ll experience maximum flexibility in the seating configurations in our Rome room. There’s also a zig zag feature window looking out onto the spacious atrium for a really airy feel.
