Auditorium / Conference Room · 150 guests · March 2025 · Bridewell Hall
Nice venue with a nice heritage feel, its not a slick glass venue that you would find in a hotel but the building has a great character which adds to it's atmosphere. Organisation was good, with the team on site being responsive to pre-event questions. All of the hired equipment was in place and AV system worked well. Catering was good with refreshments and lunch being provided as ordered and on time. Food quality was excellent with options for vegetarian and vegan diets being provided. Location is good. Central, with train station just 3-4 minutes walk away and Parliament a short tube ride.
Better signage for finding the entrance would be useful as there are several doors into the building and not all of them are for the hall. If we use the venue again then we would give more detailed instructions to delegates.
