With a capacity for 72 people, we have chosen a functional and modern design with a modular character and zenithal lighting that gives the space a warm and cozy atmosphere.

With regard to the Guest OratorySince it is a small space, a simple style has been followed, with marked Arabian lines in the design of the space as well as in the furniture and gold work.
