Town house club

About

Home House brings together 18th-century townhouses on Portman Square with, in its own words, 21st-century style: two restaurants, five bars, party rooms, a courtyard garden, a gym and spa, and 23 bedrooms. Downstairs is The Vaults, the late-night part.

A second address around the corner, Home House Studio, is the working side: co-working, pods and meeting rooms, on a membership of its own or combined.

What sets it apart
  • The closest of the West End houses: a quarter of an hour by taxi without traffic
  • One all-round club: eat, drink, train, stay over
  • An open door: a form, a photo and ID, decided monthly, without proposer or interview; no member needed to get you in
  • Built for a night out as much as for lunch: five bars and The Vaults
  • Non-members can book a bedroom and see the club that way
