Compliance Summary

General Overview:
The Memoir Club is an independent 4-star hotel with a core focus on the business events market. Meetings and events represent a significant part of its operation, with a total of 450 sqm dedicated to event space. The largest room, the Keynes Suite, accommodates up to 274 delegates in a theatre-style setup.

 

Location

The Memoir Club is situated in central London, in a commercial area bordered by Euston Road and nearby educational buildings. It is not located near any leisure attractions or retail centres, supporting a professional and discreet environment. The venue is within an 8-minute walk from Euston, King’s Cross St Pancras, Euston Square, and Russell Square stations, providing excellent access via public transport. The hotel has no onsite parking, but guests can use St Pancras Church car park next door or the Brunswick Centre (approximately a 10-minute walk). Coach drop-off is possible in front of the venue, although there is no dedicated coach parking.

 

Design

The hotel was originally constructed in 1908 and follows an art deco architectural style. Its façade features period detailing consistent with early 20th-century design. Internally, the venue embraces art deco styling throughout, maintaining continuity with the building's heritage. A comprehensive top-to-bottom refurbishment was completed in February 2025. Public areas and meeting spaces have been upgraded with modern facilities while preserving aesthetic continuity. Privacy and compliance are supported through private, self-contained meeting spaces and discreet circulation routes.

 

Meeting Spaces

The venue offers 450 sqm of event space across two floors, comprising three main suites: Keynes, Woolf, and The Club Suite. The Keynes Suite, on the ground floor, accommodates up to 274 delegates in theatre-style and is the venue’s largest space. Directly below it is the Woolf Suite, providing a naturally exclusive setup when booked alongside Keynes. The Club Suite, located on the lower ground floor and separate from the others, can be divided into three smaller rooms and includes its own catering and registration area. All rooms offer flexibility in layout, with AV equipment and breakout capabilities.
