Located in the heart of literary Bloomsbury, the Charles Dickens Museum is the perfect setting for an exclusive event in an enchanting historical setting.

An original Georgian townhouse dating back to 1809, Dickens’s ‘house in town’ is dressed in beautiful period style as if Dickens himself had just stepped out the door. The Grade I listed Charles Dickens Museum provides the perfect setting for an atmospheric dinner, elegant drinks reception, private corporate event or as a historical film location.

Spread over five floors, the Museum provides the evocative setting of an intimate Victorian home. Lit with candles, it can transport your guests to a time when Dickens would have walked the halls, entertained in the Dining Room, held court with his own guests in the Drawing Room and given life to his immortal characters in the quietude of his study.

Our Boardroom is available for hire and is ideal for meetings, conferences or for more informal events.

Situated within No.49 Doughty Street, this room can be hired for meetings, group work or other projects and can be supplied with projection equipment and flipchart.

The room can hold a maximum number of 25 guests seated or 16 to 18 guests seated at tables.

    A lovely little museum with amazing and lovely staff with lots of knowledge! I learnt a lot more about Charles Dickens and it was really cool seeing what his house was like and the furniture he used. Would definitely recommend if you're in the area. The gift shop is lovely as well and they have lots of his books of course!

    This house is exceptional if you are looking to see and experience some of London’s Victorian history. The basement level was really interesting and with some rather unexpected hedgehog facts (I won’t ruin it). A fantastic visit much enjoyed by everyone. Oh, and the gift shop is rather fab too.

    It's very cool to see the actual home interior and where Dickens did some of his writing. The staff are friendly and have done a good job staging with mostly period pieces or close replicas.
