WELCOME TO
LONDON’S
HISTORIC
UNDERGROUND
LOCATION
Give your guests the experience of a lifetime
at Churchill War Rooms, hidden beneath the
iconic buildings of Westminster. Rich in
atmosphere, this incredible venue is the
very site where Prime Minister Winston
Churchill and his Cabinet led Britain to
victory during the Second World War.
Winston Churchill is recognised as one of the greatest
individuals to ever walk the course of British history, and
nowhere is the scene of his finest hour better illustrated
than at Churchill War Rooms.
Each room has been preserved and restored to look just as
it did during the Second World War. Walk the same corridors
as Churchill, peer into the room where his War Cabinet
made their momentous decisions, and marvel at the
complexity of the abandoned Map Rooms, frozen in time
since 1945.
This once-secret underground wartime headquarters also
offers excellent modern meeting and dining facilities. It
is an inspirational venue for team building days, dinners,
receptions, press launches and seminars, featuring stateof-the-art technology and support services.
Dining and Receptions
Delight your guests with this remarkable historic
setting, where Winston Churchill himself dined
during the war. The venue offers delicious menus,
crafted onsite and freshly prepared by our expert
team of chefs, with room for between 20 and
250 guests for dinners, annual meetings, award
ceremonies, Christmas parties and more.

offers you and your guests an unparalleled
opportunity to step back in history. Imperial
War Museums’ expert guides provide unique,

Map Room and the Cabinet Room.
The Harmsworth Room
The historic Harmsworth Room features a 1940s electric
generator wall packed with switches and dials, creating
a stunning backdrop for your event. Steeped in the
atmosphere of a wartime bunker but with all the comforts
of a modern venue, this is an ideal spot for smaller
conferences, drinks receptions, intimate dinners and
memorable banquets for colleagues and friends.
