More information

We will forever return to the Royal College of Physicians when one of our events requires a venue that will just wow our participants. As soon as you step through the doors and are greeted by the impressive staircase, you know that it'll be a special night. The staff are very friendly and efficient and our preferred caterer, Pinkerton's, always delivers delicious food. Thoroughly recommend!

Was hosted to a dinner at this venue. It was really not about the food but just being seated in this building felt awesome. Every thing was at least a couple of hundred years old. It is pretty respectable that it has been maintained at such good shape after all the years. The stairways is something which is very hard to come by. The flooring, huge paintings of the earlier years physicians is absolutely amazing. Not sure if visitors are allowed in but I am thankful for the privilege.

We hosted a hybrid meeting, reception, dinner and conference style day within the RCPE. The team were great, both in supporting us to find the best solution ahead of the two days, and during the events. Big thank you to all the team for jumping in whenever we had an issue and for creating a seamless and very enjoyable event.
