Kurt Goddard
Had our company's christmas event here. Spacious auditorium and backstage area where food & drink were served. Facilities were satisfactory and it is pretty easy to get to.

Quite easy to find. Accessible. 3 lifts. Decent toilets. Enjoyed my 2 day conference and training. From Blackfriars stn turn right then immediately right again. 60/80 Meters there's a small underpass

I have been here on a number of occasions for conferences. It's well equipped, things seem to run smoothly and provide everything that you would expect. The lunches are good and this time had gluten free options for mains, but not desert. The cookies at breaks looked delicious though no no gluten free choice, so I had to settle for healthy, fruit option. They really looked after my waistline! The staff are friendly and helpful.
