Booked Function Room Lower floor at Simmons | Holborn

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.

I'm making a review, purely because there weren't enough detailed reviews when I was on the search and this left me unsure based on low food etc scores... Let's just say I was pleasantly surprised - all expectations surpassed! From the impeccable event management from Tiago & Sophie, we couldn't have done it without them, I can't get put it into words! To the decor - stunning warm Christmas cosy feels, perfect for a festive experience even with big numbers. Food came out on time and we had more than enough to keep us going (it was yummy to, sooo good!). It was well worth the investment and had so many great inclusions! Thank you all from the bottom of my heart for making our Christmas event so special, and my first one here so seamless!

We had our Office Christmas Party in the Vault last week. Everything was AMAZING! The venue, the service, the food - I don't have a bad word to say. From the initial booking to the night of the event, Sophie was super helpful with any questions I had. Our personal bartender, Flo, was exceptional along with all other staff. Highly recommend!
