Decorated in classic style the suite's high level of visual and conference aid technology is not immediately apparent. Crystal chandeliers provide four levels of lighting controlled from a single remote control, whilst the entertainment lighting system is completely concealed behind two huge ceiling panels. These rotate to reveal an ambitious and exciting installation capable of producing a multitude of effects.

The Imperial Suite is equipped with a stunning and versatile video system. A 3 * 4 metre video screen and six 32" LCD monitors are linked to an installation that allows projection of DVD and VHS media, transparencies, cinefilm and projector slides. The system can project computer graphics and also possesses a video typewriting facility.

The suites audio system utilises 52 separate loudspeaker boxes with a total of 110 drive units and an amplification system rated at 6,000 watts. These too are integrated into the classical decor and cannot be seen.

Concealed beneath the Imperial's generous stage is Europe's largest Wurlitzer theatre organ. Mounted on a lift to stage level, this formidable 36-rank instrument can create a thundering climax to a conference or presentation. An elaborate 'Uni-strut' system is incorporated into the suite's ceiling.
