City guide
Where to host in London
The City & Canary Wharf
Financial-district livery halls, boardrooms and bank auditoriums — the default for investor days and results briefings.
Mayfair & St James's
Five-star hotels, private members' clubs and townhouse venues for senior hospitality.
South Bank & Docklands
ExCeL, riverside venues and large plenary space for conferences and exhibitions.
Best time to go
September to November is the busiest window; premium City space is often committed nine months ahead. January and August offer the best rates and availability. Avoid major trade-fair and marathon weekends for hotel blocks.
Capacity
Private dining from 8 guests up to 5,000-delegate conferences at ExCeL, with hotel stock to match at every level.
Off-agenda experiences
- West End theatre buy-outs with pre-theatre dining
- Thames private charter receptions
- Guided City and Westminster heritage walks
- Michelin-level chef's table dinners
Sample programmes
Two-day leadership summit
City venue, private dining and executive transfers.
