Network in the heart of London
Situated in the heart of London’s cultural district, Cromwell Place gives our members access to a network of international art professionals. Once Prince Albert’s “Albertopolis,” South Kensington developed into one of Europe’s most successful cultural hubs during the second half of the 19th century.
Cromwell Place shares its pivotal location with the Victoria and Albert Museum, the Natural History Museum and the Serpentine Galleries.
Relax and entertain guests
Our Club Room is a space for members to come together. A home away from home; where you can meet and entertain clients and colleagues alike, relax and enjoy a light food and drink offering.
