It is this ingrained heritage of hospitality that imbues Hopetoun with a very special atmosphere and makes it the perfect venue for gala dinners, team building, product launches, meetings and conferences… if you want your event to leave a big impression with clients and colleagues, the Hopetoun experience is truly in a class of its own.
