Sir John Soane’s Museum - London WC2

Back to list

This Museum was designed by one of Britain's greatest architects, Sir John Soane (1753-1837). Behind its white Portland stone original facade lies London's most unexpected interior, every aspect of which reflects its creator's architectural ingenuity and desire to create a poetic and inspirational setting for his superb collections. Its reception rooms, domestic in scale, are particularly suitable for small or medium sized dinners and receptions. Pre-dinner drinks are served in the elegant Drawing Rooms on the first floor, decorated in the original 'Patent Yellow' colour with yellow silk curtains. Receptions can take place in the Library-Dining room. Guests may wander through the ground floor rooms of the Museum and visit the famous Picture Room with its two sets of paintings by William Hogarth, the Dome area and the Soane Gallery with its current exhibition.
