Getting there and practical details

Neighborhood
Bloomsbury

Private dinners, business meetings, small celebrations, weddings and full exclusive hire of the house can be arranged at The Zetter Bloomsbury, with 68 bedrooms on site for guests who stay the night. Groups use named rooms such as the Drawing Room, the Living Room and the Orangery, or take over the whole hotel. The Zetter Bloomsbury spreads across six restored Georgian townhouses on Montague Street, in the Bloomsbury district of central London, moments from the British Museum.

Seminars and company events

Business meetings and corporate gatherings are part of what the events team sells. The format suits a board meeting, a leadership offsite or a client dinner more than a large conference: the rooms are domestic in scale, furnished with antiques and collected objects, and the bedrooms are in the same buildings. A company can also book the entire hotel for a private event, with every bedroom held for its own guests. The Zetter group runs a Corporate Flex program for businesses, which gives members preferred room rates and a discount on food and drink across its London hotels. Meeting equipment is not detailed on the site and should be confirmed with the events team.

Weddings and receptions

The hotel offers weddings in several formats, from a small ceremony to a reception or a full exclusive hire of the house. Receptions are built around food and drink from the hotel's own kitchen and bar, and guests can stay in the bedrooms upstairs. For a takeover, the couple and their guests have the six townhouses to themselves.

Rooms and capacities

The Drawing Room mixes Georgian proportions with an eclectic interior and can be used alone or as part of a wider takeover. The Living Room is set up for relaxed gatherings. The Orangery is a daylit dining room overlooking the garden, used for afternoon tea and evening events. The Parlour serves cocktails and small plates through the day. For the Christmas season, the hotel sells a package for private parties of up to 20 people in the living room or dining room. Seated and standing capacities for each room are given on request.

Accommodation

The hotel has 68 rooms and suites spread over the six townhouses, which connect inside. Exclusive hire includes the bedrooms, so overnight guests sleep in the same building as the event and nobody needs a taxi at the end of the night.

Catering

Food and drink come from the hotel itself. The Parlour serves British small plates and cocktails from morning coffee onward, and The Orangery next to it handles dining and afternoon tea. Event menus are prepared by the in-house team.

History and setting

Bloomsbury is the literary and academic district of central London, and the hotel's interiors draw on that heritage with antiques, art and collected objects. The six Georgian townhouses have been restored and linked together, which gives the hotel the feel of a large private house rather than a conventional hotel.

Getting there

The address is 2-7 Montague Street, London WC1B 5BP. Russell Square Underground station is about six minutes on foot and Holborn about nine. The Piccadilly line runs from Russell Square directly to Heathrow, and St Pancras International, for Eurostar trains, is a short ride away.
