Royal Foundation St Katharine is the best hotel venue for meetings located in London.

Originally known as St Katharine’s By The Tower, it served as medieval church, hospital and centre of St Katharine’s precinct, a liberty housing over two thousand people along with its own courts, factories, breweries and prisons. In 1825 the battle to preserve St Katharine’s By the Tower was lost, the land excavated and flooded to form St Katharine’s Docks. The institution survived a move to Regent’s Park, but it was not until after WWII that it finally moved back to its spiritual home in the East End, occupying the site of St James Ratcliff in 1948 after the original church’s destruction in the blitz.

Over the last year, The Foundation hosted over 750 meetings and conferences, of which the vast majority benefited from subsidised church and not-for-profit sector rates. Over 16,000 people also stayed overnight on personal retreat, as part of a conference or as an alternative to a London hotel. The Foundation is currently ranked 6 out of 923 places to stay in London as part of the “speciality lodgings” category on Tripadvisor, and was recently included in Alastair Sawday’s Special Places to Stay.
