Verified Reviews of Exhibition Venues in Central London
The venue itself was great and service from the staff was good. Despite a large number of guests showing up later than expected the staff were accomodating and answered any questions we had.
Two great spaces, ideal for the training session. Fantastic cafe/bar with good snacks and coffee for pre-work and great beers for post-work. Incredibly friendly and professional staff. Awesome vibe in general.
An absolute gem of a pub. Great service, great food & so so pretty. Our customers loved it. Thank you team! Excellent coms & great service.
Really great venue with some wonderful art to set the scene. For my number of guests, it worked perfectly - the main room was set up with chairs and a screen for presentations, leaving the side room to be used as a bar area. Pavel was excellent to work with. We’ll definitely be back!
- The location - Ease of communication and helpfulness of event/sales team - The room and venue were lovely and well suited for the occasion
Everyone was so helpful, and just really eager to make sure that the event was a success which was amazing to have.
1.It is easy to access for visitors. 2.Gallery was tidy mood to have opening party. 3.Staffs are nice attitude. But, we would like gallery staffs to take more responsibility for the safety of works.
