Situated in the heart of London’s St. James, just a short walk from Green Park and Piccadilly, DUKES LONDON provides a sophisticated and elegant venue for meetings and events.


This summer, DUKES is proud to unveil the St. James Suite, a beautifully refurbished space which can accommodate up to 90 people. With a dedicated events team on hand to ensure no detail is left to chance and catering masterminded by Executive Head Chef, Nigel Mendham, a meeting or event at DUKES is in exceptionally safe hands.


Blending quintessential British charm and cosmopolitan luxury, DUKES LONDON offers timeless hospitality and a home away from home ambience. Its central location, enthusiastic and talented team, elegant décor and outstanding cuisine, make it an ideal choice for exclusive meetings and events.


The new St. James Suite, the hotel’s largest event room, has been elegantly re-decorated to create a chic, city venue for events of up to 90 guests (reception) or 60 guests (dining). The perfect space for a meeting, private dining or cocktail reception, the layout provides an ideal area for break-out sessions or pre-dinner drinks. The St. James Suite is fully air-conditioned with wireless broadband Internet access.


Those with further to travel may choose to stay overnight in one of DUKES’ classic style bedrooms or deluxe suites, and, after a day of meetings, a drink in the legendary DUKES Bar is the ideal way to unwind. DUKES Bar is internationally renowned for its famous martinis – an experience not to be missed!
