Large conference space with good amenities and a handful of different types of food options. Obviously depends on what's being displayed but the venue itself is pretty top notch

Carl Griffin

Excellent exhibition space. Highlight of the year is the week long Great British Beer Festival .

HISTORY UK

The exhibition centre began life as the National Agricultural Hall in 1885. The world’s largest military pageant, the Royal Tournament (est.1880), was held here from the 1900s to 1999.

There's a lovely French cafe called L'Elysee next to Tesco Express down the road - has lovely fresh baguettes and coffee ! Much better than conference food .

Miss Gh

Here i visited national wedding expo. Great variety and quality bridal wear, not only that, lots of things ! Highly recom for brides to be, all dresses with discounts

Graeme Evans

Love it, I’ve only been there twice

Style Reins

Venue for the London International Horse Show. Friday is the night to watch the Puissance competition where the wall get's higher and higher! The Shetland Pony Grand National is also great fun.

Fernando Elizalde

Great 19th century venue, very ackward to get to if one is not close to the Overground line that goes by it.

Caroline Watson

Best place to eat nearby is Alounak at 10 Russell Garden . Escape the overpriced and frankly substandard offerings nearby that fleece the conference crowd.

Missy

Love finding out the exhibits held here! Lots of things to do.

Jennifer Carter

Great for conferences - big! A few decent food options too

Turkish citizens come here to vote. Note this down as we have some kind of elections quarterly.

Christopher McLeod

Awesome venue but you have to venture out quite far if you want food and fun.

Teresa Keane

Nip across the road to Tesco's if you're peckish - it's much cheaper!

Federica Bowman

Everyone's saying it, and they're right. Don't eat inside, rip off. For breaky head to Franks cafe opposite. Great bacon sarnies .

Jinik Jeon

nice place - 100% design show 2016

Ashleigh Gardner

Lots of sunlight, but confusing floor plans!

Sirrsb Mcloving

No easy place to smoke. Had to be searched every time we went out for a smoke. Should of fenced of a little area

Jojo

Being your own food - unless you want to pay some extortionate prices!

Charlie Barrett

Great British Beer Festival posting while I can still spell :-)

Tim Bush

Bring your own food or visit one of the places outside the venue. The food inside Olympia is a rip off! £4.50 for an egg sandwich !

Mike Brady

Great British Beer Festival .

Best part was leaving! Great if you're a Dr Who fan. I'm not.

Very old convention center ...

Not a bad venue. Bit old and tatty as an event place but location is good.

Karl Hills

Visit CIPD'S HRD exhibition

Moray Souter

Don't buy a small coffee from DP cafe , it is tiny and a rip off.

Dmitriy Geranin

Как выставочное пространство очень неплохо. Ресторанная выставка очень даже органично уместилась.
