Private Events Brochure

Unique, flexible and effortlessly stylish, The Groucho Club is the exceptional destination for special events. Our devoted and efficient staff can accommodate almost any configuration from an intimate private dinner, meeting, launch, to a roaring party for three hundred guests. Nestled impressively in the heart of Soho, the club is renowned for its stunning contemporary art collection which forms a sophisticated backdrop to any event. Non-members are welcome to book private events and we will make you a temporary member for the duration of your event.



Club History

In 1985, frustrated at the absence of a Club which women could freely use, some of the brightest minds in publishing put their heads together and those anarchic rebellious women decided to simply open their own - and it was from this maverick enterprise that the Groucho Club was born.

Intended as a haven for the creative of soul and kindred of spirit, the Groucho quickly became a place of inspired sociability and subtle notoriety, and this legacy continues to imbue the character of the Club today. Exclusivity is required of a members’ club, yet due to the nature of its founding, the Groucho has always been characterised by an intimate, warm inclusivity – reflecting the true individuality of its membership.


The Groucho Club offers 17 bedrooms for the convenience of its members, their guests and guests of private events. Bedrooms vary in size and style from single rooms to biggest double rooms.

All of our rooms have an en suite bathroom, full minibar, LCD flat screen TV with full SKY package, DVD player, free wifi, hair dryer, REN toiletries, Nespresso coffee machine and safe. Room service,and concierge are available.

Prices start at £99 per room for members, including continental breakfast. Check in: 2pm; check out: 12pm
