The Thames Club · New London

Event
Rooms

Private dining, corporate gatherings, weddings, receptions, and occasions that deserve a room with a hundred and fifty years of good conversation in the walls.

The Rooms

Spaces with
real character.

The Thames Club is not a hotel ballroom. It is a house — with a library, a formal dining room, a hunt room with fireplaces, and a distinctive basement pub with two duckpin lanes. Each space brings something a generic venue cannot.
