Frequently asked questions
What are the minimum spend requirements for weekend bookings?
Weekend bookings require a minimum spend of £15,000 to open the venue, as 116 Pall Mall only operates during weekdays under normal circumstances. This minimum applies to the total event cost including venue hire, catering, and any additional services.
What are the standard operating hours and overtime charges?
Standard venue hours are 8:00am to 5:00pm on weekdays. Early access before 8:00am or late access after 5:00pm incurs additional charges of £1,250 + VAT per hour. Events can be extended until 1:00am with these hourly charges applying.
What payment terms and deposit requirements apply to bookings?
A 50% deposit is required within 14 days of signing the contract to secure your booking. Payment can be made by BACS transfer, over the phone, or via payment link (AMEX not accepted on payment link). AMEX payments via PDQ machine incur an additional 5% charge on the invoice value.
How far in advance must contracts be signed to secure dates?
Contracts must be signed promptly to secure dates, as spaces remain available to other clients until contracted. The venue typically requires contract signature within 48 hours for provisional holds, and dates can be released to other clients if contracts are not returned within agreed timeframes.
What are the capacity limits for the Business space in different configurations?
The Business space (Waterloo Room) accommodates up to 120 guests in theatre style, 160 for drinks receptions, and 140 for standing events. It's often used in conjunction with the Nash Room for larger events requiring multiple spaces.
Are external caterers permitted or is catering exclusively provided by Searcys?
External catering is strictly forbidden at the venue. All catering must be provided by Searcys, the venue's award-winning in-house catering team. They specialize in seasonal ingredients and sustainable practices, offering set menu options with dietary requirements catered for separately.
What AV equipment and technical support is included with room hire?
The Business space includes built-in plasma screens, HDMI connectivity, and flipchart facilities. Additional AV requirements such as microphones, projectors, and technical support can be arranged through the venue's AV partners, with costs varying based on specific equipment needs.
What accessibility features are available at the venue?
116 Pall Mall is fully accessible with accessible toilets, lift access, and ramp access throughout the venue. The venue is located 5 minutes' walk from Piccadilly Circus and 4 minutes from Charing Cross stations for convenient transport links.
How does the provisional booking and deadline system work?
The venue operates a provisional hold system where dates can be held temporarily while clients make decisions. If another client expresses interest in the same date, the venue will deadline the original client within 48 hours to make a final decision or release the date.
What are the cancellation terms and conditions after signing?
Cancellation terms and conditions apply immediately after contract signing, though specific details vary by booking. The venue mentions that cancellation policies are outlined in their standard terms and conditions, which are provided with each contract for review.
