About The Royal Society
The grand columns of our Carlton House Terrace entrance have welcomed scientists, scholars, and distinguished guests since we first opened these doors. Here at The Royal Society, we've perfected the art of hosting everything from intimate board meetings to grand dinners for 500, all within our Grade I listed walls that tell three and a half centuries of scientific discovery. Our 12 event spaces each bring their own character to your gathering. The Wellcome Trust Lecture Hall serves as our largest room, where conferences flow seamlessly into evening dinners. Board meetings find their home in our wood-paneled smaller rooms, while the Dining Room transforms from morning seminars to evening receptions with ease. From the Wolfson Rooms, your guests will enjoy sweeping views across The Mall and St James's Park - a backdrop that never fails to inspire conversation. We've equipped every room with the technology modern events demand: WiFi throughout, full audiovisual capabilities, and our technical team on hand to ensure everything runs smoothly. Natural light fills each space through tall windows, while air conditioning keeps everyone comfortable year-round. Our catering partner Graysons crafts seasonal menus using ingredients sourced with sustainability in mind - something we take seriously here, having earned Silver status in the Greengage EcoSmart Hotels and Venues scheme. We're actively working toward Platinum, because preserving our environment matters as much as preserving scientific heritage. When you book with us, you're not just securing a venue. You're supporting the UK's National Academy of Science, a registered charity that has promoted scientific excellence for humanity's benefit since the 1660s. Just a short walk from Charing Cross station in London's West End, we're ready to host your next meeting, conference, or celebration.
