Party like a prince during London Olympics
Royal rooms at St James’s Palace will be available for hire during next year’s Olympic Games in London.
The Queen has given the royal seal of approval for renting out the palace’s historic rooms as party venues during the Games.
Buckingham Palace says holders of royal warrants – companies with long-standing ties to the royal family – will be given a chance to rent the rooms, during the Games, from July 27 to August 12.
Built between 1531-1536, St. James’s Palace was a residence of kings and queens for more than 300 years — although Buckingham Palace has been the home of the monarch since the time of Queen Victoria.
Located close to Buckingham Palace, it houses the offices of several members of the royal family including Prince William and Prince Harry.
Unofficial estimates put the cost of hiring out the best rooms at the palace – such as the Throne Room or the Tapestry Room – at US$47,500 per day.
