On becoming Prime Minister in May 1940 Winston Churchill visited the underground War Cabinet Room and said "this is a room from which I will direct the war".
The Imperial War Museum took over and restored large areas of the Whitehall site which had been hidden for years. At the same time the opportunity was taken to develop a conference and banqueting centre.
The meeting facilities now include a number of historic period rooms including a 140 seated auditorium - enhanced by discreet, but modern audio-visual facilities and air conditioning. Rooms are available for corporate or private hire, both daytime and evening.
