An elegant corporate events venue for business meetings & private conferences in Islington, London.
Many clients comment on how well their functions turn out at The Window. The combination of the light, spacious ambience and the friendly, responsive events team, allows clients to step out of the ordinary “conference mode” and encourages creative thinking and open dialogue.
Whether it’s for a business conference, a product launch, training seminar or executive meeting, the flexible floor spaces add that extra imaginative flair and the personalised client service takes care of the details to ensure an event is a complete success.
Venu hire for corporate events or private events.
The Window offers four distinctive and complementary floor spaces with eight rooms to suit varying needs. The elegant entrance way, flanked by a rock garden and over-hanging balcony, welcomes clients into a light and spacious two tiered reception floor.
The top floor conference room provides the focal point for the event. Its panoramic view of the London skyline and trade mark 12ft window make this an impressive backdrop for corporate presentations. Third floor executive suite and meeting rooms are ideal for smaller meetings and presentations. Audio Visual Services are also available on request.
The dining area, supported by specialist in-house catering services, can also be used as a secondary conference floor. Its more informal and relaxed environment lends itself to break out groups, private meetings and informal gatherings. Additional private rooms are also available upon request.
The Window’s prime location is supported by good transport links with Angel and Highbury & Islington underground stations and an NCP car park, all within a 10 minute walk. Wheelchair access is provided to all floors and The Hilton Hotel is close by for delegates requiring overnight accommodation.
