    Large conference space with good amenities and a handful of different types of food options. Obviously depends on what's being displayed but the venue itself is pretty top notch

    The exhibition centre began life as the National Agricultural Hall in 1885. The world’s largest military pageant, the Royal Tournament (est.1880), was held here from the 1900s to 1999.

    There's a lovely French cafe called L'Elysee next to Tesco Express down the road - has lovely fresh baguettes and coffee! Much better than conference food.

    Venue for the London International Horse Show. Friday is the night to watch the Puissance competition where the wall get's higher and higher! The Shetland Pony Grand National is also great fun.

    Great 19th century venue, very ackward to get to if one is not close to the Overground line that goes by it.

    Best place to eat nearby is Alounak at 10 Russell Garden. Escape the overpriced and frankly substandard offerings nearby that fleece the conference crowd.

    Nip across the road to Tesco's if you're peckish - it's much cheaper!

    Everyone's saying it, and they're right. Don't eat inside, rip off. For breaky head to Franks cafe opposite. Great bacon sarnies.

    Bring your own food or visit one of the places outside the venue. The food inside Olympia is a rip off! £4.50 for an egg sandwich!

    Как выставочное пространство очень неплохо. Ресторанная выставка очень даже органично уместилась.
