This venue is amazing! It has lots of natural sunlight, high ceilings, and feels very bright and welcoming. It's truly a special place in London. The service was wonderful. Kay always answered emails quickly and was very helpful. John, the caretaker, went above and beyond to help us set up and clean afterward. He made everything easy. The security guard was friendly and welcoming, which made our guests feel comfortable and happy. The catering company was also excellent. The food tasted great, and they helped us with both setup and cleanup. I would definitely recommend this venue and would love to book it again!
everything was perfect!

Kay couldn't have been more helpful with booking the Friends and Members Room at the Hellenic Centre. Costs were provided upfront and everything ran very smoothly on the day. We would recommend this venue to anyone looking to book.
