Tips for Booking the Right Studio in London

Hackney, Dalston, and Leyton are hotspots for flexible, affordable studio hire—great access to creatives and well-served by Overground lines.
For natural light, look for studios with “daylight” or “loft” in the name—Bow and Kentish Town are especially strong on this.
If you’re on a tight timeline, short-term bookings (2–4 hours) are common—most studios on Tagvenue offer hourly hire.
Need a quiet setup for video or audio? Ask about soundproofing—some locations like Studio 557 in Kentish Town or Clerkenwell Studio near Barbican are well-suited for film work.

Whatever your medium or timeline, London has an art space to match. Use Tagvenue to find and book the perfect creative studio—whether it's for a weekend residency or a quick midweek shoot.

Booked Parisian Style Studio Space at Many Rooms Studios

4.7

We used this studio to host consultation days for an upcoming fashion line and had a really great experience. The space was exactly as pictured, lots of different areas, textures, and backdrops to work with which made it feel very versatile. The amenities provided were also thoughtful, having access to things like a kettle, teas, and especially the clothes steamer was incredibly handy throughout the day. The owners are quick with communication & Mike, the studio assistant, has also been great every time we’ve booked. The team has overall been friendly, helpful, and always accommodating.

Perfect venue for an off-site team meeting. The team felt very well looked after so we had a very productive session as a result. Lovely light room with direct access to the street for fresh air at break time. Generous catering so very good value for money. Would definitely recommend and book again.

Booked Workshop Room at The Twelfth House

5.0

I can’t say enough good things about this venue. Absolutely beautiful little place, super clean and tidy, in the main area, so close to shops, coffee places and eateries, but the road itself is actually so quiet. Enough can’t be said for the lady who runs it, either. She was absolutely wonderful, so hospitable and polite, and just a lovely person.

The space is exactly as described and how it looks in the photos, very spacious. Martyn was a lovely host, very accommodating - he prepared the table set up and had all the plates/cutlery ready and helped with the set up. I was really glad there was a projector screen and projector which Martyn very kindly set up for us.
