About Venue
In 2002 the Cabinet War Rooms took over and restored large areas of the Whitehall site. The meeting facilities now include a number of historic period rooms including a 120 seated auditorium - enhanced by discreet, but modern audio-visual facilities and air conditioning. Rooms are available for corporate or private hire, both daytime and evening.
Entertain in a unique and historic setting. The iconic Harmsworth Room incorporates the 1940’s electric generator wall featuring L.E.D’s, 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, it is ideal for smaller conferences, drinks receptions, intimate dinners and lavish banquets.

Great museum! Take the time to visit. Took us longer than what was recommended but we're high fact finders. We're also American, highly recommend. Was interesting to learn about and see how things were naturally left, also some great American history to be seen and learned here. Winston was a talented guy!

It could be the most impressive museum I've ever been to. Every exhibit is incredibly well-made, with just the proper amount of information to read quickly and on to the next. Because of its tiny size, you should budget two to three hours if you want to see everything on a busy day. I didn't even realize we had been there for so long because everything was so captivating that the time flew past! It was strange to see things left exactly as they were after the war ended and the rooms closed, and the interactive exhibits are fascinating. There is undoubtedly a presence there, particularly when you hear the testimonies of the deceased.

This is a great place to visit, especially if you’re a history buff. It’s amazing how well preserved the war rooms are. They’ve done a great job in keeping it well maintained. They offer a self guided tour which can take about 1.5 to 2 hours if you take your time are take in everything there is available. The gift shop offers some cool stuff but they have a couple of books that delve deeper into the history of this place.
