Frequently Asked Questions
What are the standard timings and rules for access and event usage?
Standard daytime hire is 08:00–17:00. All spaces must be vacated by 17:00 or additional de rig (clear-out) charges will apply. Evening hire runs from 18:00–01:00. Precise costs for overrunning or de rig are not specified.
Are there additional or mandatory fees not included in the room hire?
Additional charges may apply for AV upgrades, extra technical requirements, and de rig (late/overrun). Reusable De Vere water bottles are available at £1.25 per delegate (optional). AV suppliers can be quoted based on requirements. No undisclosed mandatory add-ons are listed for the base package.
Is catering included, and what are the options?
For Day Delegate Rates (DDR), catering such as tea/coffee, lunch, and refreshments during breaks are included. For all-day room hire without DDR, catering can be provided at an additional cost.
Can the venue support multiple breakout rooms for conferences?
Yes, the Grand Connaught Rooms can provide multiple breakout spaces near the main conference suite.
Is AV and technical support included in the cost?
Basic AV (3000-lumen projector and 8x6 screen, PA in some rooms, one flipchart) is included in some DDRs or may be specified in your quote. Upgrades (e.g., larger screens, extra microphones) incur additional charges quoted as required. AV supplier quotes are available on request.
What is the step-by-step process for booking a conference at Grand Connaught Rooms?
After you enquire, the venue will send a formal proposal and request basic information about your organisation (name, company registration number, address, contact details). You will then be issued a contract and payment link. The final VAT invoice must be settled 4 weeks before the event date; contract signature is via DocuSign. Our sales team can advise on required deposit amount and payment deadlines.
