About this space

The Reading Room is a stunning, generously proportioned space with an ornate ceiling, beautiful archways and artworks, and floor-to-ceiling bookcases that stretch along two walls. Leading through to the Library, it might give the impression of an informal clubroom. The room boasts bright windows overlooking the Mall, St James’s Park and Horse Guards Parade.

Recommended hiring as a standalone event space for up to 90 guests or alongside the adjoining Library.

Variety of options Flexibility

Bringing the trolley in for the breaks/canapés at the end was quite noisy but not sure how else the team could manage as ‘in room’ catering space only. Maybe just extra care in being as quiet as possible but didn’t effect the overall high standards enjoyed

Tinique was personable, professional and a real pleasure to work with from start to finish. She worked within the brief given, but made great recommendations around it so that the overall experience was enhanced.


Whether you are looking for a boardroom for a discreet meeting or a selection of distinct suites for a major conference, reception or fine dining occasion, {10-11} Carlton House Terrace provides versatile spaces and unrivalled standards of service. Ten different rooms are available to hire, from 2 – 200 people, each offering their own unique style. Many of our rooms feature floor to ceiling windows, creating light and relaxed environments.

{10-11} Carlton House Terrace was built during the late 1820s and early 1830s on land previously occupied by Carlton House, the residence of the Prince Regent, who became George IV.
