Hire East and West Crypts, Guildhall London (EC2V 7HH)

Side by side beneath the Great Hall lie the largest surviving medieval Crypts in London — and arguably the most atmospheric. Dating back to 1042 and while completely different in style, both are equally as evocative.

With a maximum combined capacity of 500, the East and West Crypts offer the perfect setting for unusual, distinctive events underneath spectacular vaulted ceilings decorated with carved bosses of shields and flowers — either as a complement to Great Hall, or more intimately on their own.
