The Other House is a hotel in the Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea that doubles as a private member’s club – no membership required. It’s also home to a range of beautifully decorated, ultra-chic event spaces, from cosy rooms for private dinners to larger spaces perfect for sophisticated drinks receptions. If you’re looking to host a private dining event in South Kensington, consider The Other House. It’s able to host small or lavish meetings and dinners complete with specially-curated menus designed by the head chef.
The hotel boasts two dedicated private dining rooms: The Francis Bacon and Mervyn Peake Rooms. Named after two famous names that once lived in South Kensington, these spaces are equally suited to breakfasts, lunches and dinners. Plenty of natural light in the day makes them a bright and airy choice for a corporate breakfast or lunch meeting, while navy blue walls, leather chairs and beautiful art instil the space with warmth and cosiness. Perfect for enjoying an exquisite three-course meal with friends or colleagues. Plus, these rooms are both fitted with the latest AV technology, including Chromecast functionality.
When it comes to the food, the talented kitchen team are able to cater for everything from coffee and homemade pastries, all the way through to entirely bespoke menus. The Francis Bacon Room can seat 10 people, while the Mervyn Peake Room can seat eight.
For a slightly more informal affair, The Library is a warm and welcoming space able to host up to 10 seated guests, or 12 standing. This room can accommodate food, drink and table service, but in a more relaxed fashion than a traditional sit-down meal. You might like to book this space for one-to-one meetings or interviews.
