Lovely place but parking is tough to get around this area

I believe canceling Chris Hedges speech was a disgraceful capitulation of Free Speech to powerful lobby groups. I doubt this course of action would have iccyred under Laura Tingle's Presidency. National Press Club has lost much respect

The event room was impeccable, and the setup was fantastic. The bar staff were wonderful, providing excellent service throughout. However, the event management service was somewhat ordinary… lacking that extra effort and a bit too methodical. They responded in time and handled queries efficiently, but the overall approach felt quite standard and unexpectedly passive, which came across as somewhat insincere and merely transactional. It seemed as though they were going through the motions rather than providing genuine hospitality. While I would probably not book again, unless necessary, I still award five stars because the event itself turned out to be a great success. That said, I would prefer to work with a team that exudes more friendliness and warmth in the future.

Always have a fabulous meal here. A good variety of choices, beautifully presented, and worked around my dietaries. The service is also very friendly & attentive. And on a Friday night, we were the only table! Bonus is the excellent price. And they make a mean French martini

Had my first visit to the National Press Club and really enjoyed it. Super friendly staff. Chilled atmosphere. Excellent food and all reasonably priced. It has a lovely history with great photos of past prime ministers and events lining the walls… glad we have membership…
