"Everybody was so professional, especially Marta. She was always there, every step of the way, which I’ve never experienced in 10 years of doing this. She never said ‘no’ to anything and she did everything with a smile. Honestly, it was so good working with her and the team at 116, and we’ve already booked the venue for our next event."

Testimonials

We recently held an evening reception at 116 Pall Mall, and I can’t speak highly enough of the experience. Hannah, our reception lead, along with her fantastic team, went above and beyond to ensure everything ran smoothly. Their professionalism, attentiveness, and warmth made all the difference and truly elevated our event. A special thanks also goes to Fru and Liv, whose support in managing and helping to organise the reception was invaluable. The venue itself is stunning, and the service impeccable — I would not hesitate to recommend 116 Pall Mall for any special occasion or professional gathering.

The 116 Pall Mall events and hospitality team have been incredible during this unexpected and extremely uncertain time. While many venues have played hard ball and I’ve heard of many lost deposits and contract wars, 116 Pall Mall have been fair and understanding in the cards we have all been dealt as event organisers. Thank you. It’s the good stories and nice people and businesses that will hopefully come out of this period winners.
