Our selection of the 10 best Leicester Square meeting rooms

Moonchu Hall, situated in Gerrard St, borders China Town and Leicester Square. The hall’s second floor is open-plan, spacious, and airy, with lots of natural light. With a standing capacity of 240, it's well-equipped with all your meeting need-to-haves: AV equipment, including TV and projector screens, whiteboards, and flipcharts.

In our expert opinion, this is the Leicester Square meeting room suited for workshops, lectures, conferences, and exhibitions.

This Browns is right around the corner from Leicester Square tube station and so we’re including it on our list of Leicester Square meeting rooms.

Barrister’s Court is the largest private dining room at Browns, and is housed in the former Westminster Barrister’s courtroom. An opulent space filled with natural light, complete with the original Judge’s bench.

Browns can transform the space for a private or corporate event, able to seat 25 in a boardroom layout, 30 in a classroom layout, and 60 theatre-style. It’s our pick for a stylish, elegant, and historic meeting room, if you go in for that kind of thing.

Personally? We’re more inclined to RSVP to a meeting that’s held in a bar (let’s pretend that attending work meetings is optional). Ruby Blue at The Balcony Bar offers a versatile meeting space with a standing capacity of 150 people.

The bar room is well equipped to be a Leicester Square meeting room with AV equipment such as TV and projector screens, A/C, and movable booth seating to accommodate theatre-style seating. Ideal for a moderately sized conference, meetings, and events in a setting that doesn’t feel like a boring meeting room.

There a couple of great meeting rooms at China Exchange, all of them suited to a number of different corporate events. Chung Yen Sing Hall is China Exchange’s smallest and most intimate meeting room, with a capacity of 60 standing guests.

The space is anything but meeting room-sterile, accented by wooden floors and Chinese murals in a palette of soft colours. This Leicester Square meeting room is ideal for workshops, receptions, and meetings.

What we said about RSVPs for a meeting being higher when the location is in a bar stands for Leicester Square meeting room as well. The Academy Bar at Opium in China Town can accommodate up to 60 guests seated or standing.

One half is set as a chic lounge area – a parlour-style room with quirky booths, comfy armchairs, and low tables. The other half of the space is dominated by high bar tables and stools.

All in all, a sophisticated little spot for a business meeting over lunch or dinner – and we can vouch for the dim sum and cocktails.

The private suite at the Radisson Blue Edwardian Hampshire is perhaps the most traditional business meeting room on this list. It can accommodate 25 standing or 12 seated, ideal for a small meeting, presentation, or other corporate event.

A long-standing hotel, the Radisson Blu knows its business and in so doing, gets straight to business. All that said, we appreciate the touches of the hotel's personality in the Edwardian art on the walls.

The Prudential Hall is a meeting room located on the third floor of China Exchange. With a standing capacity of 240, this spacious carpeted hall is accented by traditional Chinese paintings and receives lots of natural light.

This Leicester Square meeting room is ideal for talks, performances, and presentations, and is equipped with AV equipment, including TV and projector screens. It’s one of those rare spaces that can accommodate a high number of people but doesn’t lack character.

Smack dab in the middle of Leicester Square, and built for the Royal Family to enjoy back in the early 20th century, the Royal Retiring Room secluded within the London Coliseum has become a popular location for corporate events and meetings.

With a capacity of 25, or 10 in a boardroom layout, the period room showcases Edwardian details, with stunning floor-to-ceiling mirrors which makes the room feel open, and comes with a dedicated team to help you plan and organise your event or meeting.

There’s no rule that says meetings have to take place in featureless rooms, and these days there is an increasing number of restaurants and bars offering spaces for business meetings and corporate events. One such place is the upstairs gallery at De Hems Dutch Cafe and Bar.

With a separate roadside entrance up to the gallery, this unconventional Leicester Square meeting room is great for a meeting or presentation. It can accommodate up to 90 people standing, 16 people in a boardroom layout, and 45 people in a classroom layout. The space may be a little unusual, but don’t knock it til you try it, we say.

If you’re after a meeting space and also need to entertain any visiting colleagues after said meeting, there’s always Alma’s Room at the Hippodrome Casino – two birds, one stone, and all that.

With a standing capacity of 32, the room provides practicals such as AV equipment and a projector screen, whiteboards, and flipcharts. Natural light fills a chic and contemporary room, but it’s the art on the walls depicting the court cards from a deck of cards that we like.

Meeting room, private dining room, and easy access to a casino all in one; it’s actually three birds, one stone.
