Westminster Rooms at No. 11 is available for exclusive hire across two floors, giving you full, private command of four distinctive rooms within one of Westminster’s most characterful Edwardian townhouses. Whether you are looking to take over the entire venue or hire the ground floor as a self-contained suite, both options offer the same seamless, tailored experience, with no shared spaces, no other guests and complete flexibility over how the rooms are used.
Located at 11 Great George Street, moments from Parliament Square, the venue is suited to a wide range of occasions: brand activations, product launches, private receptions, wedding celebrations, team parties and intimate gatherings that call for a genuinely distinctive setting in central London.
Westminster Rooms at No. 11 can be hired in two configurations, depending on the scale and nature of your event. The ground floor suite brings together three interconnected rooms on a single level, ideal for more intimate occasions or events that suit a self-contained setting. Full venue hire opens up the entire townhouse across both floors, with two bars, a grand internal staircase and capacity for up to 140 guests.
Both options offer complete exclusivity, with no shared spaces and no other events running alongside yours, and the same high standard of catering and event support from the team at Westminster Rooms at No. 11.
The ground floor of Westminster Rooms at No. 11 comprises three interconnected rooms: The Westminster Room, The Drawing Room and The Parliament Room. Hired together as a single suite, they offer up to 90 guests standing, with distinct zones for private dining, drinks receptions and mingling, all on one level and all exclusively yours.
The Westminster Room provides an intimate private dining space for smaller groups or a dedicated breakout area. The Drawing Room and Parliament Room open up the ground floor for receptions, entertainment and more flexible event formats. A fitted bar and dedicated service area are included, along with the venue’s period features: decorative fireplaces, high ceilings and the signature royal blue and gold interiors that give No. 11 its distinctive character.
This option works particularly well for corporate entertaining, client dinners with a reception element, brand activations and private celebrations where a self-contained ground floor setting is the right fit.
Full venue hire brings together all four rooms across both floors of Westminster Rooms at No. 11, connected by a grand internal staircase and lift access. The ground floor suite, comprising The Westminster Room, The Drawing Room and The Parliament Room, is joined by The Speakers Room on the first floor, which adds a further 60-guest capacity and a second fully staffed private bar.
With two floors at your disposal, the layout lends itself to events that benefit from defined spaces for different moments: a reception on one floor, dining or entertainment on another, with guests free to move between them. Each floor has its own bar, its own character and its own service team, while the venue as a whole retains the intimate, private feel of a townhouse rather than a conventional event space.
Full venue hire accommodates up to 140 guests standing and is well suited to larger receptions, wedding celebrations, product launches, networking events and brand activations where the setting is as important as the occasion itself.
Whichever option you choose, your hire includes:
