Share this article
Introduction:
Whether you’re hosting a strategy session, impressing a client, or bringing your team together, choosing the right meeting space makes all the difference.
To make your search easier, the team at Runway East London Bridge has put together this ultimate guide. It covers everything you need, from essential tips on what to look out for when booking a space to the nearest transport links, plus the top 10 Waterloo meeting rooms.
What to Look for When Booking a Meeting Room:
When reserving a meeting space in Waterloo, keep these points in mind:
Capacity: Choose a room that fits your attendees comfortably. Whether it's a small gathering or a larger event, Waterloo has meeting rooms of various sizes.
Equipment: Make sure the room has all the necessary tech you need, like reliable Wi-Fi, whiteboards, pens, and video conferencing tools.
Amenities: Keep your team well fed and hydrated. Look out for water stations, hot drinks, and catering services that the venue offers.
Soundproof Rooms: For productive discussions, opt for a room with good sound insulation to minimise disruptions.
Booking Details: Check if there is a minimum booking required; some providers allow a 30-minute booking, whilst others have a minimum of 2 hours.
Accessibility: Check how easy it is to get to via public transport and if the building and meeting room are accessible for everyone.
Cost: Compare prices based on the room's size and facilities to stay within your budget. Ask about discounts for multiple bookings.
Cancellation Terms: Read the T&Cs before booking to avoid unnecessary fees for changes of plans or cancellations.
Convenient Transport Links to Waterloo:
Underground: Waterloo Station (Bakerloo, Jubilee, Northern, and Waterloo & City Lines) provides direct access to key areas, including the West End, Bank, London Bridge, and Canary Wharf.
Bus: Numerous bus routes are available, such as the 1, 188, 172, 68, and 59.
Driving: Waterloo can be easily accessed via the A301 and A3200, although public transport is advised due to congestion and limited parking.
Cycling: There are plenty of dedicated cycle lanes and Santander Cycle docking stations offering convenience to eco-conscious commuters.
