Establishing a New Benchmark for Luxury Events in the Capital

The Challenge

When Rosewood London opened in 2013, the task was to establish a new entrant in the capital’s fiercely competitive five-star market. The hotel needed to carve out a reputation for its event offering that would stand alongside long-established luxury venues, attract a mix of corporate and high-end social business and deliver commercial performance from the outset.

Our Approach

As Director of Event Management, Mark Scholfield led the creation and launch of Rosewood London’s event operations. His strategy combined:

  • Clarity & Direction – positioning Rosewood London as a contemporary luxury venue, differentiating it from heritage competitors through design, service and exclusivity.
  • Market Reach & Influence – building awareness with event agencies, corporate buyers, and luxury wedding planners to generate a strong sales pipeline pre-opening.
  • Systems & Structure – implementing operational processes and service standards that reflected the Rosewood brand ethos of “A Sense of Place.”
  • Revenue & Performance – introducing commercial strategies that balanced competitive entry pricing with long-term profitability goals.
  • People & Culture – recruiting, training and inspiring a new events team capable of delivering at the highest luxury level from day one.

The Results

Within two years, Rosewood London had established itself as one of the capital’s most sought-after luxury event venues, generating over £7 million in event sales, attracting high-profile launches, fashion shows and society weddings; earning a reputation for flawless service that drove repeat business and long-term client relationships.

Impact

Rosewood London’s successful entry into the London luxury market demonstrated the value of strategic positioning, strong sales foundations and operational excellence. The framework created during the launch phase ensured continued growth, brand differentiation and market share. Today, E+M+C applies this launch expertise to support new and repositioned venues seeking to establish themselves with immediate impact and sustainable success.
