Staff were lovely, attentive and great to work with. Drink prices were great, venue and toilets was clean and the night ran smoothly For those with concerns regarding the sound system, it's great sound.
No complaints about the venue. This is not something about the venue, but a number of people who ordered cabs to the venue got dropped off a few roads away, so bear that in mind

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!
Nothing we can complain about

Everything was easy to run and staff knew what they were doing. Good spaced out venue too.
There was no device we could use to play our own music and we were not advised before the event that we need to bring one. I can usually plug my phones into speakers but there was no speakers available with the small plug and no Bluetooth option either. This would not be a problem if we were told before the event so we could have prepared as we had some audio based games we wanted to play before the DJ arrived as we had two hours.

Yes! Here's what guests who have hosted their birthdays at this venue say:

  • Sarita C. rated it 5/5 stars
    'This venue was perfect for our birthday, we loved the whole look and vibe of the downstairs area. The lighting, the huge glitterball DJ booth, sound system was perfect, bar well staffed and happy hour prices was a massive bonus. Own entrance, staff on the door providing wristbands for our private event, own toilets, great mix of seating areas, dancefloor and standing area by the bar. The staff were so friendly and attentive, it really was an incredible event thanks to the venue, facilities and levels of service. We looked at a number of venues and this was miles ahead for us, prices are excellent for central London and minimum spend requirement was very reasonable for the size of space / capacity. Thank you to the whole team for everything!!'

It is! Here's what guests who have hosted holiday celebrations there are saying:

  • Lucy H. rated it 5/5 stars
    'Had our work Christmas party at Simmons Holborn. The team were efficient and great at communicating to get things set up. We ordered in our own catering, and had a photo booth set up, and connected up our own music for the night, and Simmons made it a great base. The location was central, and easy to get to, and the area was spacious and fun, with lots of seating too, and we had private toilets and a bar for our use. Would certainly recommend, we had an excellent night. Thank you.'
