·250 attendees
·3 meeting rooms

Winston Churchill is recognised not only as one of the greatest individuals ever to walk the course of British history. Today he is a figure admired throughout the world, by statesmen and women and the man in the street alike. Nowhere is the scene of his Finest Hour better illustrated and more intimately experienced than at the Cabinet War Rooms, the basement storage area that was converted for use in wartime and from which he ran the country, waged war and inspired millions with his words….while outside the bombs rained down on London. Today the Rooms have been preserved and restored and look just as they did when he last held court here. You can walk down the very corridors that Churchill walked, peer into the War Cabinet Room at the scene left as it was when he last met there, marvel at the complex of the Map Room, abandoned in 1945 and left frozen in time. Why not entertain with a difference by holding your event at The Churchill War Rooms. The meeting facilities now include a number of historic period rooms including the HCA Auditorium, which seats up to 150 theatre-style, enhanced by discreet, but modern audio-visual facilities and air conditioning; the Harmsworth Room, which contains original features of the wartime bunker; and the recently refurbished Switch Room, perfect for breakfast meetings and intimate dinners. Rooms are available for corporate or private hire, both daytime and evening.
