About this space

Arab Hall is a hall in Leighton House that presents an extensive collection of Islamic tiles and mosaic floors concentrated in an intimate, richly decorated reception space.

Design: The Arab Hall presents dense, highly patterned surfaces: polychrome glazed tiles framed by carved marble columns, gilt capitals and layered rugs beneath a relatively low ceiling that focuses light onto the mosaics.

Features: An installed PA system and speakers are available and own music is permitted subject to a venue noise restriction. Step-free guest entry, wheelchair access and accessible toilets are provided. Wi‑Fi is available in the space.

Ideal for: The Arab Hall suits cultural groups and organisations seeking an intimate, decorative setting for largely standing receptions and drinks‑led gatherings.

What guests say: The Arab Hall presents transportive, richly detailed decoration and registers as a hidden gem that feels unexpectedly immersive for a townhouse museum.
