Coats, Bags and Baggage
- In order to ensure an enjoyable atmosphere in the public rooms and to reduce clutter we request that coats, bags, luggage and shopping are placed in bedrooms or in the designated storage areas below:
> Gender specific cloakrooms on the ground floor.
> A secure baggage storage area on the ground floor beside the lifts.
> A coat rack outside the Ribbon Bar & Terrace on the 3rd floor opposite the lifts.
> Please leave suitcases, travel bags, shopping in the cloakroom.
> Handbags are of course acceptable in all rooms.
> Business bags and brief cases may be taken into the Business Suite.
Screens & Electronic Devices
Smart phones, iPads, tablets and so forth are now ubiquitous. Please use them as muted viewing devices wherever you wish in the Club whilst having regard for the presence of other members.
Using these devices as phones is only permitted in:
> Bedrooms
> The Business Suite
> The Cloakrooms
> The Ribbon Bar & Terrace
> The Ribbon Bar & Terrace but please bear in mind that it is often full and other members are unlikely to wish to listen to one half of your conversation.
If you would like any guidance about these rules please ask any member of staff who will be happy to offer advice or assistance.
Meetings
The Smoking Room is designed to be a place for small social gatherings, a place to catch up with the news or for quiet contemplation and relaxation. It is designed to have the atmosphere of a country house drawing room and therefore not to be used for anything which could be broadly interpreted to be a meeting.
Composed of the Business Centre and the Ian Jacob Library, our Business Suite features a modern place to work. Our hot desks are ideal for focused work, whilst our spacious break-out area, complete with sofas and complimentary tea and coffee making facilities, is perfect for those all-important Zoom calls, which you can connect to using our secure Wi-Fi.
The Ribbon Bar & Terrace is sometimes used on an ad hoc, spontaneous basis for informal meetings by members. Please behave in a considerate manner to those who are using the Ribbon Bar & Terrace for its primary purpose. The Events team will be happy to help you book a room if you wish to hold a formal, fully supported meeting at the Club.
