AN EXCLUSIVE members club IN THE HEART OF London

Blacks is back

For the first time in a century this beautiful building has been properly restored and the spirit of the 18th century when it was built in 1732 runs once again through its veins thanks to the restoration and redesign.

Now available for private bookings on all newly refurbished floors - dinners, birthdays, photoshoots and filming, all are possible.

Explore our rooms

The Hellfire Club

Each floor is loosely based on Dante’s Divine Comedy, so enter through the basement, and knock for entry to the deep reds of the Hellfire Club basement, Francis Dashwood’s 18th century club for rakes - perfect for cocktails or for dancing till late.

Purgatorio

Pass upstairs to Purgatorio, the floor where all the aspects of 18th century pastimes can be explored: walk down the alley to see what’s new in the glove and wig shop, or stop for coffee and a catch up on politics in the Coffee House, or perhaps stop at the Apothecary’s Bar for a soothing draught. If none of these quite help ease the waiting for your passage up to the next circle, try the Opium Den, perfect for two, and offering Asian menus for two or four, call for your butler with your personal ‘push for service’ button.

Paradiso

Once you’ve been released from Purgatorio, you may pass upwards to the Paradiso floor - earthly paradise in this case. Pass through the Sanctuary which is dedicated to the pursuit of fine wines to the main salon which is evocative of the Soho salons of the 1700s, complete with references to the courtesans of the era and neighbour Casanova, and the likes of Madame Teresa Cornelys the erstwhile queen of Soho Square.

If passion really gets the better of you perhaps you may want to book the private Boudoir room of old Blacks fame.

Now however it has undergone full transformation into a boudoir and is the perfect private spot for secret assignations or even a proposal dinner…again push the button for your personal waiter.

The Library & Card Room

And what could be above earthly Paradise but that of the gods – the Library? Ascend to the next floor and you will find the library, reimagined as it might have been and enhanced so it is now the perfect spot for reading, music performances, poetry, screenings and talks.

Next to it is the Card Room, a tiny version of the 18th century favourite obsession – order a glass of madeira and try not to lose your shirt! And now there are new toilet facilities available on this floor, so no more running to the basement in your breeches so the floor can operate independently or as part of an all-building rental.
