Meeting · 25 guests · May 2026 · The Games Room

We booked this for an all staff meeting where we wanted a private space but not your usual boring office venue - this was perfect. Hosts were really lovely, very helpful and the space was really good. A very easy walk from Paddington and very accessible for all. Was lovely to be able to have a drink in the bar afterwards too and didn't feel like we had to watch the clock at any point either. The facilities were fab - screen that we could link a laptop to and wifi had a good signal too.

There was nothing we didn't like!

This venue was amazing for my partners 30th birthday party! The communication was great and the venue prompted planning really well! They have a huge range of board games as well as the old school nintendo to play on which the guests loved doing. The standing formation I picked had lots of space in the middle to mingle but still places to sit where people played the board games. The karaoke also went down well, they’ve got great quality mics! The venue let us bring our own cake and candles as well as letting us coming a little earlier to decorate the place with balloons and buntings. So helpful with setting up the karaoke on a big projector. I even connected my laptop to the screen to do a birthday quiz! They accommodated extra stuff like beer pong aswell. Compared to a lot of places I’ve seen in London, this was also very reasonably priced by letting me choose an option for just venue hire and letting guests buy their own drinks and food! Really friendly service aswell by the bar staff and events team. Close to several stations (Paddington and Edgware Road) an if people need to use the night tube, it’s about a 15/20m walk to Lancaster Gate (on central line)

Nothing! Fantastic place to hold a lively party and lots of guests said they’d book this place for their own events! Highly recommend

    'Amazing space full of character that you’re able to decorate to your heart’s content. It was the perfect space for a 30th birthday we hosted. Hugely helpful staff: they were struck with a power outage on the day of our party but they worked so hard to put out loads of candles, call for alternative venues, etc. Thankfully the power came back on eventually! A big thank you to the team for all the hard work. Food was also really good quality - I heard nothing but compliments from guests about the spread.'
