Really well organised, staff were super helpful, the barman downstairs was super friendly and was very quick getting the drinks out. I will definitely use this space again if I need a venue for a penalty.

Staff were friendly and helpful. Room was spacious. Location is perfect for people coming from different parts of London.
To cool the room down we opened the windows. The traffic noise wasn't terrible, but for some meetings it might not be appropriate. Also, there is a private/staff room within the meeting room. Again, it wasn't really a problem, and access was only needed a couple of times. But for some kinds of meetings that might not work.
