Whether they are Gryffindor, Hufflepuff, Ravenclaw or Slytherin, the four houses of Hogwarts, their teachers, seated on a platform at the back of the room, do not miss a single crumb of their discussions.
But the highlight of the show is indeed the enchanted ceiling of the Great Room, which reflects the exterior and gives the illusion of dining under an overcast sky or a starry night, depending on the weather outside. As if all that wasn’t enough, floating torches illuminate the room with a soft, warm light. The stone walls are decorated with tall windows and banners representing the colors and emblems of the four houses. The atmosphere is often one of sharing and laughing, when the dementors are not there. party.
