Gilgamesh London

Welcome to Gilgamesh London, a venue where timeless elegance meets contemporary flair, located in the vibrant heart of Covent Garden. Drawing inspiration from the ancient Mesopotamian legend of Gilgamesh, our space offers an immersive and luxurious experience that transcends ordinary events. From the moment you step inside, you are transported into a world of opulence, where intricate design, exotic touches, and rich textures combine to create an unforgettable setting for any occasion.

Spread across three distinct areas, Gilgamesh London is a versatile venue perfect for everything from intimate gatherings to grand celebrations. Our design fuses ancient influences with modern sophistication—walls adorned with intricate carvings, plush velvet seating, warm lighting, and sleek metallic accents all come together to create a truly enchanting ambiance.

The Zion Mezzanine, located on the upper level, offers a private and serene space ideal for smaller gatherings such as private dining, presentations, or corporate away days. With a capacity of up to 65 standing guests or 40 seated, and equipped with a built-in AV system, private bar, and DJ booth, Zion provides an exclusive setting for any occasion.

On the lower level, Babylon is a dynamic room that offers a more expansive space for networking events, product launches, or lively social functions. With seating for 75 guests and space for up to 120 standing, Babylon’s intimate yet stylish atmosphere, enhanced by its own private bar, ensures a sophisticated yet engaging experience.

For larger celebrations, Gilgamesh London is available for full venue hire, accommodating up to 250 guests for standing receptions or 150 for seated dining. This allows your guests to enjoy the entire venue, including the ground floor Lounge Bar, where luxurious decor and carefully curated design create a perfect backdrop for canapés, drinks receptions, and dancing.

At Gilgamesh, the culinary experience is just as extraordinary as the venue itself. Our Pan-Asian menu, inspired by the vibrant flavors of Japan, China, and Southeast Asia, offers something for every palate, including extensive plant-based options. Each dish is prepared with the finest ingredients and served in a setting that reflects the grandeur of the experience.

From intimate private dinners to large corporate events, Gilgamesh London provides a stunning backdrop for any occasion, where exceptional service, modern amenities, and unparalleled ambiance ensure that every event is a remarkable one.
