Helped us with what we needed and apart from that left us to it. Use of the kitchen was easy and simple and things were provided. We forgot to ask about this so brought all our own.
Toilets are in the basement with no lifts which was hard for our older guests.

From the first contact through to the event itself, Colin and the team at Pushkin House have been fantastic to deal with. Nothing was too much trouble.
There is no accessible access for guests with lack of mobility, although the team were exceptionally happy to offer their assistance if anybody should need it.

Stunning venue. Excellent staff and you're very well looked after once you get there. Great communication during booking and understating of people's budgets. We will use again.
