When looking to hire a function room in the City of London it is best to start by considering any transport options for your guests. This lively area is filled with tube stations, so whether you are considering a room for a seminar near Mansion House station or a modern high-end eatery near Bank station you can be sure it will be easily accessible. The Square Mile is also filled with many popular attractions, so check and see if this is reflected in any hire fee. Venues towards Spitalfields or Finsbury might suit smaller budgets.
Fantastic service from the team - helpful speedy and friendly. Great venue although no wifi/service as a basement bar. Defo recommend and would hire again.
Smiths of Smithfield is a beautiful location and we had the most amazing service while we were there.
The venue superseded our expectations. The location is great but the food was also great and so were the staff. They were very polite and helpful. We would definitely recommend this venue.
I love this place. It’s like a place out of Arabian nights and it’s the perfect setting for my Ho’oponopono meditation nights. Will be my monthly full moon hangout from now on. Thanks team!
Gorgeous venue situated in the heart of London. Met our needs perfectly. Exemplary help and accommodation from Nick - many thanks!
Great atmosphere and a great layout with the square bar. The food was lovely and the suggested menu per person was just the right amount.
Manager and all staff were very professional and looked after me and my guests the whole night. Made my birthday a night to remember. Thank you
