18 days agoAll White or good old fashioned pure brilliant white, but if the hall is that dark I wouldn’t go navy at all. I would choose something like Purbeck Stone or Pavillion Grey on the pannelling - very elegant. I made the mistake of painting my hall green, Pigeon, and it sucked the remaining light out of the hall completely! Soon repainted it a light grey, so much nicer.
First pic is Ammonite walls and Purbeck Stone pannelling. Second pic is white pannelling with Pavillion Grey upper wall.

Near neutral whites are very low in chroma. (degree of colour).Zero chroma = a true neutral.
Such whites, really require a decent amount of well-balanced light, to be at their luminous and gleaming best. They aren’t illuminants in themselves.
An off-white with more chroma (degree of colour), such as Wimborne White, would be worth viewing in situ first.
Don’t dismiss it because it may appear too yellowish in the better lit areas of your home.
That extra kick of chroma may simply translate to a welcome softness, in lower lighting.
Should Wimborne White still feel too much of a colour in that space for you,chroma = 0.68 and All White render a little raw and shadowy, with a chroma of 0.21?
Then you are looking for a white with a degree of chroma which sits between the two.
See BM Snowfall White + PPG Swansong/Delicate White within this list.
(PPG = Johnstones Trade Colour)
