The hall with the dance floor

Viceroy Hall

Viceroy is the hall people book when the evening has a second half. It seats a hundred to a hundred and twenty, and unlike a room where the dance floor is whatever space is left after the chairs go in, this one has a proper wooden floor laid as part of the hall.

  • 100–120 Guests
  • Wooden Dance Floor
  • Feature Lighting
  • Tall Ceilings

About the hall

What Viceroy is actually like

The proportions do most of the work. The ceiling is high enough that the room does not feel crowded at a hundred and twenty, and high enough for the hanging light fittings that give the space its character after dark. Practically, that height also means the sound has somewhere to go — a hundred people talking does not turn into a wall of noise the way it does in a low room.

The usual layout keeps dining to the perimeter and the floor open in the centre, so the room changes character between the meal and the music without anyone moving furniture mid-function. Audio-visual is set up in advance, whether that is a montage on screen, a compere with a mic, or a DJ feed.

At this size the catering gets more flexible, not less. A hundred-guest menu can carry more live counters per head than a 250-guest one, which is why engagement functions and milestone birthdays in Viceroy tend to lean on dosa, chaat and dessert stations rather than a straight buffet line.

What comes with the hall

Viceroy, in detail

01

Laid wooden dance floor

A permanent floor, not a cleared patch of carpet — the reason this hall gets booked for evening functions.

02

Tall ceilings

Height keeps a full room from feeling packed and stops a hundred conversations turning into noise.

03

Feature lighting

Hanging fittings that carry the room after dark, so the space photographs well without extra rigging.

04

Audio-visual setup

Mics, screen and audio feed configured before the function starts, including a DJ input.

05

Live counters per head

A smaller list means more stations for the same budget — dosa, chaat, carving, dessert.

06

Valet parking

Guests arriving after work hand the car over at the door on West Veli Street.

Viceroy questions

Before you book this hall

Does Viceroy Hall have a real dance floor?
Yes — a wooden floor laid as part of the hall, not a section of the room cleared after dinner. It sits at the centre with dining around the perimeter, so the room moves from the meal to the music without furniture being shifted mid-function.
Is Viceroy Hall big enough for a wedding reception?
For a list of 100 to 120 it is the better-proportioned choice — the room fills properly at that number instead of looking sparse. Above about 130 guests you want Majestic Hall, which seats up to 250.
Can we bring a DJ or our own music for a function in Viceroy Hall?
The hall is set up with mics, a screen and an audio feed a DJ can plug into, configured before your function starts. Tell the banquet team what you are planning when you book and they will have the inputs ready.
