Boathouse By The Lake hosts corporate events, conferences, product launches, award dinners, weddings and private celebrations in two halls that each seat more than 300 guests at banquet tables and hold over 500 in theatre layout. The venue stands beside Tasik Ampang, the lake in Ampang on the eastern edge of Kuala Lumpur, in the state of Selangor.
Seminars and company events
The venue sells corporate events as one of its three core formats, alongside weddings and private celebrations. Both halls are planned for large audiences: the Glasshouse takes 506 people in theatre rows and 252 in classroom layout, while the Dome takes 520 in theatre rows and the same 252 in classroom layout. Either hall suits a company town hall, a sales conference, a dealer meeting or a launch with a stage and screens. The site lists award dinners and product launches among the events it hosts, so an evening program can follow the daytime sessions in the same building. With two halls of similar size, an organiser can run a plenary in one and set up the dinner in the other, which avoids a room turnaround between the two parts of the day.
Weddings and receptions
Weddings have their own page on the site, and the venue presents itself for receptions and private celebrations as much as for business. The Glasshouse seats 330 guests at 33 banquet tables and the Dome seats 350 at 35 tables. A buffet layout, which the venue calls Viking, takes 288 guests in either hall. The Glasshouse, with its glass walls and greenery outside, suits a daytime reception. The Dome, more enclosed and contemporary, with its event technology, suits an evening dinner followed by dancing.
Rooms and capacities
The Glasshouse is the largest multipurpose indoor space and occupies the ground floor. Floor-to-ceiling glass lets in daylight, the interior is white, and the windows look out over trees and the lake. The site also quotes a figure of up to 400 guests for this hall, so confirm the exact number for your layout when you send a request.
The Dome has a contemporary design, an unusual architectural shape and technical equipment built for events. Its banquet and theatre capacities are slightly higher than those of the Glasshouse, while classroom and buffet figures are the same in both halls.
Catering
The official site does not describe the food offer, the menus or whether outside caterers may work in the halls. Ask the venue team how catering is arranged, which cuisines are available, and how dietary requirements are handled for a large group.
History and setting
The halls sit at the lakeside in Ampang, a residential district with green slopes east of the city center. The setting gives a city event a view of water and trees without a long transfer out of Kuala Lumpur, which matters for a conference with guests arriving from offices in town.
Getting there
The address is 5 Tasik Ampang, Jalan Hulu Kelang, 68000 Ampang, Selangor. The venue is reached by road from central Kuala Lumpur, and the site links to directions on Google Maps. The sales office answers enquiries Monday to Friday, from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. Parking is not described on the site, so ask about it for a large event.
