Booked Function Room Lower floor at Simmons | Holborn

The venue manager, bar staff and security were all very friendly, helpful and supportive. Everything was perfect in terms of the sound system, location, atmosphere etc. We received a lot of positive feedback from our guests attending our party. They especially liked the atmosphere, happy hours on cocktails and the fact that they could bring or order food in. We're eagerly looking forward to organising our next event here!
