London's
most magnificent private palace
Spencer House was built in 1756-66 for John, first Earl Spencer, an ancestor of Diana, Princess
of Wales (1961-97). Situated in the heart of
St James's,
Spencer House is a short distance
from St James's Palace, Buckingham Palace and the
Palace of Westminster, and has a splendid terrace and restored, half acre garden with magnificent views of The Green Park.
Spencer House, one of the most beautiful and stunning settings
in London, is available for your exclusive use.
The state rooms, have been restored to
the former splendour of their late eighteenth-century appearance and are
decorated with distinguished paintings and furniture. This provides a
magnificent setting for private and corporate events, receptions, civil
weddings, recitals, meetings and presentations. Charitable events are
welcomed at Spencer House.
Spencer House has an in-house team who are dedicated to planning and
executing your event. The Head Chef will create a seasonal menu to suit
your individual requirements. The Head Butler will be happy to advise on
wines from our cellar.
We are able to provide a full bespoke service to include printing and
calligraphy. Working alongside carefully selected suppliers, Spencer
House Events are happy to arrange flowers, entertainment, additional
lighting, marquees and fireworks.
The Facilty Fee for the exclusive hire of the House is based on the size
and scale of each individual event and includes our own full event
management. Menu prices are inclusive of Butler service, fine china,
silver, linen, glassware and furniture.
