Searcys at The Gherkin is proud to announce a new host of innovative private dining, meeting and events spaces specially designed to create memorable, sky high gatherings with new modern, bespoke menus.
Designed by London-based studio Softroom, the five architecturally stunning rooms are aptly named after clouds: Alto, Cirrus, Stratus, Cumulus and Nimbus and offer spectacular views of the capital. Designed with flexibility in mind, the new rooms provide a space for small, targeted conferences for 18 delegates or larger parties of up to 100 guests.
Newly open for daytime functions, the cloud-inspired rooms are ideal for dining and celebratory gatherings in the heart of The City. Sitting high above London on the 38th floor of this Norman Foster designed building, they offer stunning vistas, catering excellence and impeccable service. This significant piece of London skyline is already a popular choice for events in the city, having hosted over 570 events in 2017.

“In response to a move towards inspirational flexible spaces that can host all event styles – from business meetings, informal celebrations or a full-day conference, we were tasked with creating a series of multifunctional private hire spaces at level 38. The concept was to design a luxury environment, whilst maintaining flexibility for its numerous uses.” says Harriet Helps, project manager at Soft Rooms. Able to adapt to suit the size and style of any event, these interconnecting rooms are as practical as they are eye-catching. The new oversized glazed doors between the rooms allow a more open circulation and maximize natural light whilst brass and a specialist ‘shimmer’ wall finish add a subtle touch of luxury.
The rooms also offer multiple screens, lapel mics and docking stations, as well as an on-site engineer on hand to ensure presentations go smoothly.
