As an Event Venue, the Pantages offers up a really modern, classy environment for speaker/dinners, buffets, all day conferences and more.
The bartenders in the lobby bar do a good job at taking care of all of the guests needs- Martini night?
The event or reception space is nicely laid out with enough room for a buffet or a long ballroom with a sit down dinner. There will never be enough room for 200 people, but for 100 or so for a sit down, it's great.
I've been several times, and the contract for booking is ridiculously long, so be forewarned.
I've also been to the spa which is Meh- Registered massage therapists who obviously aren't that into their work.
