Malmaison and Hotel du Vin
streamline event management with Creventa
Malmaison and Hotel du Vin are renowned for hosting a variety of events, including private dinners, weddings, and corporate functions. With numerous events happening across their locations, the teams faced significant challenges managing the complexity of guest details, pre-orders, and seating plans. The time and effort spent on manual processes often led to human errors and a less-than-optimal guest experience—until Creventa stepped in.

The Client
Introducing Malmaison and Hotel du Vin
The Challenge
Business Gaps
Before adopting Creventa, the team relied heavily on spreadsheets to track pre-orders, dietary requirements, and seating arrangements. These processes were not only time-consuming but also prone to human error, which risked compromising the event experience.
“The biggest challenge was the time. The team was spending too much time reviewing pre-orders, seating plans, and all the event details. Accuracy was a concern, and human error was often exposed.”
Lauren Wilson, Malmaison and Hotel du Vin
