Rooms combine easily for events that move through different formats, a conference through to a reception, then into a gala dinner, each stage handed off to a different space rather than one room trying to do everything.
Prices of gala dinner venues average around £4000 minimum spend per event. The exact costs depend on the room size, audiovisual equipment (such as projectors or microphones), or high-speed Wi-Fi. Additional services, such as catering or on-site coordinators, may cost extra.

Everybody loved the venue , great location and atmosphere, and the food was delicious. Staff upstairs were helpful, food came roughly on time.
The location of this office is excellent. We were travelling to London from across the UK and it was easy to get to from various National Rail stations. The hosts were really helpful and the space had everything we needed. I would highly recommend booking this venue.
