The Roehampton Venues team supported us exceptionally well from start to finish. The pre-planning call and regular email communication were very thorough and gave us real confidence ahead of the day. On site, everything was set up and ready on arrival, with the team adapting seamlessly when our guests arrived earlier than expected. The organiser and catering staff checked in regularly and were excellent, discreet and highly attentive throughout.

The event space was wonderful, with a great layout, plenty of natural light and reliable technology. Catering was outstanding and the cleanliness of all event spaces was excellent. While some guests found the distance from the station a little challenging, driving and on-site parking were straightforward and convenient. Overall, a fantastic experience.

Elm Grove is my favourite place to stay and work in London. With abundant green space and affordable comfort, it’s a really peaceful and productive place to be. From the Housekeeping staff to the Events Team, everyone is professional, helpful and friendly. Highly recommend for a work-stay venue close enough to central London to do business, without the frenzy.
