A large pre-function area, connected to the Ballroom, provides for guest registration, pre-dinner drinks and mingling during intermissions.
For mid-size meetings, we suggest the stately decor of the Franklin Pierce, or for smaller groups, the James Buchanan, Charles Evan Hughes, William Howard Taft and others that invoke the Willard's proud history.
