About this space

Once the original chapel of the house, the Oratory is the perfect setting for intimate dining, private meetings and cosy celebrations.

The Oratory is also London's most intimate historic wedding venue. Licensed for civil ceremonies, our unique oratory is a breathtaking setting on a small scale for you to celebrate your wedding with your very nearest and dearest.

The unique design remains just as it was originally intended, lending itself ideally to romantic and exclusively private wedding celebrations. Seamless service will ensure you and your guests have everything you desire with discreet precision.

Everything. This venue exceeded all of our expectations and provided a luxury experience from start to finish. All staff members went above and beyond for us and it felt like we were in a private residence. A true personal touch and romantic feel.

The Oratory is perfect for an intimate wedding. The hotel is beautiful and historic with lots of differently styled spaces to enjoy. The option to create a completely bespoke menu with the chef. Dedicated and friendly team of staff. Unique experiences like sabrage.
None - we can't recommend The Milestone Hotel highly enough.
