One Whitehall Place & The Royal Horseguards are interconnecting properties.
One Whitehall Place
Whatever the event - international conference, charity reception or gala dinner - One Whitehall Place can undoubtedly claim its place as London's premier conference and banqueting facility.
Standing amidst the grandeur of the Gladstone Library, it still retains the original gantry, and with such magnificent features still dominating the room, this is a stunning arena within which to host a more formal function or banquet.
Situated next to the Library, the Reading and Writing Room was once used as a lounge. Today, the elegance of this room and its balcony, overlooking Whitehall Gardens, combines with excellent natural daylight and superb views across the Thames to create a setting of timeless luxury, perfect for a wedding or a personal celebration.
Once the Smoking Room and then the Club's Billiard Room, The Whitehall Suite displays magnificent faience tiling amongst its original features. The Club was once a male-only fraternity; the viewing gallery allowed members ladies to watch events taking place. Situated at pavement level, this is an ideal conference suite offering easy access, state of the art technological facilities and natural daylight.
The River Room began life as the Ladies' Lounge and, displays all the architectural panache found elsewhere in the building. With its balcony affording views over the Thames and Whitehall Gardens, it is a superb setting for a private dinner, offering intimacy in style.
The Meston Suite has been generously endowed with natural daylight and is especially suited to training or small meetings. The Cellar, now used to house fine wines and rumoured to hide a secret passageway to the Ministry of Defence, offers an intriguing venue for small. With such flexibility on offer, One Whitehall Place is proud of its unique ability to provide a customised package of service and facilities, tailored to individual requirements.
