The view from the River Rooms has to be seen to be believed.

Panoramic views along the Thames, including the sights of the Tate Modern, Shakespeare’s Globe and London’s newest iconic building, The Shard, ensure your event has the perfect backdrop.

Lower Room

The Lower River Room is the ideal space for drink and canapé receptions, parties, or as an impressive break out room. It has an intimate elegant charm of its own but can also be themed if required. This room is self-contained and has internal and external staircase that connects to the Upper room should you require more space for your event.

Upper Room

With floor-to-ceiling windows running the length of the room, and views along the Thames, your guests wont fail to be impressed. Ideal for a drinks reception of up to 400 people or a formal dinner/Christmas party for up to 140.

The rooms are perfect individually but can also be used together for larger events.
