Great staff, incredible views and a lovely private room perfect for our event
Could have done with a bit more space around the table - a buffet breakfast was offered but wasn't really much room for people to walk around

There are few spots on the London landscape as striking as our special venue. Pair high-end design with vintage cuvees and contemporary cooking, all while enjoying panoramic views from the top three levels of one of London's most iconic skyscrapers.

The top two floors of this breathtaking venue can be hired exclusively for breakfast conferences, celebratory dining and evening receptions. The exclusive hire of Helix and Iris is ideal for events up to 260 guests.

For smaller and more intimate events, the five private dining rooms on level 38 offer unforgettable views of the London skyline. Designed with flexibility in mind, the cloud-inspired rooms can be booked individually or can be combined to fit your occasion. The private dining rooms are ideal for targetted conferences, meetings, networking and dinners for up to 60, whilst whole floor bookings allow for events up to 130 guests.

Events at the venue are lavishly catered for with bespoke breakfast, lunch and dinner menus that bring to life passion for British produce and seasonality.
