About The Senate
The Space
The Senate at Presidency Hotel is a dedicated event venue housed within one of Bengaluru's well-established hospitality addresses on St. Marks Road. The space carries the measured elegance expected of a city-centre hotel banquet hall — formal enough for high-stakes corporate gatherings, yet adaptable enough to be dressed up for celebratory occasions. The interior is designed to accommodate a variety of seating configurations, making it a practical choice for event planners who need flexibility without sacrificing a sense of occasion.
The Senate is positioned as a self-contained event environment with the full backing of a hotel's in-house services. Guests benefit from professional banquet staff, dedicated event coordination support, and the catering infrastructure of Presidency Hotel's kitchen — qualities that reduce the logistical burden on organisers and allow the focus to remain on the event itself.
Events & Occasions
The Senate suits a wide range of corporate and social events. On the corporate side, it is a natural fit for board meetings, product launches, seminars, training sessions, and conference-style gatherings where a central Bengaluru location and reliable A/V support matter. On the social side, the space works well for receptions, anniversary celebrations, milestone birthday dinners, and smaller wedding-related functions where an intimate but polished setting is preferred.
The hotel's catering team can curate menus across cuisines to match the occasion, and the events team is accustomed to coordinating room setups — theatre, classroom, banquet rounds, and U-shape — to suit the specific needs of each booking. This versatility makes The Senate a consistently useful option whether the guest list is a compact executive group or a larger celebratory gathering.
Location & Accessibility
St. Marks Road places Presidency Hotel in one of central Bengaluru's most accessible corridors, within comfortable reach of Brigade Road, MG Road, and the wider Central Business District. The area is well connected by road, with auto-rickshaws, cab services, and city buses serving the neighbourhood regularly. For guests arriving from further afield, the proximity to MG Road Metro Station on the Purple Line makes the hotel reachable without navigating peak-hour road traffic.
The central location is a meaningful advantage for corporate events where attendees are travelling from offices across Bengaluru's business districts, and equally convenient for guests arriving from the city's main railway stations or for out-of-town visitors staying in the broader MG Road–Brigade Road area. Presidency Hotel also offers on-site accommodation, which is useful for multi-day events or for organisers who want to consolidate travel and event logistics under one roof.
