The Slate Phuket’s whimsical outdoor spaces beckon planners with The Coliseum Steps, a new masterpiece of landscaping by renowned architect and designer Bill Bensley. Positioned as a setting for alfresco events, the venue is situated within the premises of The Slate, a member of the Design Hotels collection.

The Coliseum Steps and Coliseum Garden present a unique canvas for crafting special events. David Barrett, events consultant for The Slate, said, "Coliseum Steps is a truly special venue in Phuket that ignites the imagination and immerses guests in the wonders of nature.”

The Colisseum comprises five tiers that cascade down to a central stage, overlooking a lotus pond. This outdoor amphitheater-style venue provides a classical ambiance spanning over 975 sqm, up to four tables on each tier.

From hosting gala dinners and cocktails, award evenings, presentations to creative brainstorming or stage shows, Khun Gam, the event organiser on the property, collaborates with clients to craft outdoor events, from elaborate five-star dinners to casual seating on straw bales or bean bags. Other venue features include a ground-level stage, a fully equipped bar, Rebar lounge at the top tier, and dual entrances through Rebar or at the garden level.

The Slate Phuket is the only hotel in Thailand to be named amongst TripAdvisor’s Travelers’ Choice Best of the Best Out of the Ordinary Hotels, a title given to only the top 1% of the eight million hotels on the platform.
