A beautiful Grade 1 listed house in Central London providing unique and inspiring spaces for events of all kinds such as conferences, parties, filming, lectures, exhibitions, meetings and fashion shows. Steep in history and ready to be explored. Recent clients include Virgin Trains, Grant Thornton and Central Government
Several expansive windows sit recessed along the exterior wall, with crescent windows arching just below the high roofline opposite them. Light floods in from each side, bestowing the Herschel Room with a warmth so often lacking in spaces boasting those treasured high ceilings and traditional features. Beyond the abundance of light they bestow, those high windows supply a valued sense of privacy often highly desirable for people within industries that value confidentiality, such as the healthcare industry.

Valerie Joy
February 2025I was part of a staff team delivering a conference for 300 people in February 2025. I cannot praise the venue and the staff enough. There were plentiful facilities, the rooms are beautiful and the tea/coffee/biscuits provided included all flavors, suitable to so many different diets/tolerances etc. We were able to have items delivered direct to the venue for a few days before and David really did everything to help us hold a successful event. Although there are steps, the venue had staff constantly available with ramps, there is a lift for access to the main areas etc. Discounts are offered for charities in line with the founding principles of Mary Ward House.
