Review from event hire on 25th June 2025:
As an Office Manager with over 10 years of experience hiring venues across Central London, I can confidently say this was by far the best venue I’ve worked with. The space was exceptionally well-equipped for hosting events, with every detail thoughtfully considered — including all the extras that make a real difference.
The service was truly five-star from start to finish. Diane was highly professional and accommodating, while Dan went above and beyond to support us throughout the event. The catering team delivered outstanding service, and the chef’s food was exceptional. The cleaning and maintenance staff kept the venue immaculate at all times.
We had a complex AV setup, and the venue recommended an excellent supplier who delivered a flawless result. The on-site security team was equally impressive — professional, approachable, and ensured everything ran smoothly and safely throughout the day.
We will absolutely be using this venue again and will be recommending it to others without hesitation.
