Choosing the right space to host your team huddles and brainstorming sessions is essential to a successful meeting. Barbican meeting rooms offer everything you need, from convenient transport links to fully equipped spaces.

What to Look for When Booking a Meeting Room

When reserving a meeting space in Barbican, keep these points in mind:

Room Size: Choose a room that fits your attendees comfortably. Whether it's a small gathering or a larger event, Barbican has meeting rooms of various sizes to meet your needs.

Tech Support: Check that the venue has all the necessary tech you need, like reliable Wi-Fi, whiteboards, pens, and video conferencing tools.

Refreshments: Look out for water stations, hot drinks facilities, and catering services that the venue offers to keep your team energised and productive.

Noise Control: If privacy and focus are important, choose a room with good sound insulation to minimise disruptions.

Booking Requirements: Be mindful of providers' minimum hire times; some spaces are available for short bookings, while others may require longer time slots.

Transport & Accessibility: Check how easy it is to get to via public transport and if the building and meeting room are accessible for everyone.

Pricing: Compare prices based on the room's size and facilities to stay within your budget. Ask if there are any loyalty or bulk-buy discounts.

Cancellation Policy: Always read the T&Cs before booking to avoid unnecessary fees for changes of plans.

Convenient Transport Links to Barbican

Underground: Barbican Station (Circle, Hammersmith & City, and Metropolitan Lines) offers direct access to major hubs, including King’s Cross, Liverpool Street, Paddington, and Moorgate.

Bus: Various bus routes are available, such as the 55, 205, 141, and 17.

Cycling: Cyclists will find plenty of dedicated cycle lanes and Santander Cycle docking stations nearby, offering convenient, eco-friendly travel options.

Driving: The area is easily accessible through the A1 and A201, but due to limited parking, public transport is recommended.
