Default order of adverbials

Hi

I was wondering if the following sentence is acceptable/correct (even if it's against the rule "PLACE before TIME). Does the length of the adverbial of place justify the swapping?

The company is organising a conference on 6 August at the London Hilton, 22 Park Lane.

Cheers

Nico

This is the normal way of expressing this kind of information.
