Supporting the newly built TS Eliot Theatre, Merton offers a further selection of smaller conference and meeting rooms to suit the differing requirements of any conference.

For those with traditional tastes, the Breakfast Room—capable of holding a boardroom event for up to 20—is ideal. Though its elegant wooden panelling is only a century old, the room itself dates back to the late 1500s, when it was built by Warden Richard Fitzjames. In 1643-4 it was used by Queen Henrietta Maria, wife of Charles I.

If you have more modern tastes, you might prefer the Conference Room in the award-winning Finlay Building. Its clean design, internet and AV connections, and private balcony make it the envy of many boardrooms. It is ideal for meetings of 10 delegates.

For larger numbers, the air conditioned Mure Room provides a theatre-style environment to accommodate 60 guests. It can also serve as a main seminar room for a larger event incorporating additional meeting rooms.

The Fitzjames Rooms overlook the exquisite Fellow’s Garden and are ideally suited for smaller meetings and conferences.

Merton also provides:

  • Complimentary flip chart pad and pens
  • Audio-visual equipment upon request
  • Syndicate rooms for 10 delegates
  • Complimentary conference office for larger events
