Room Capacities
Rhodes House will be open for events from late Spring 2023 after a major project to enhance our elegant central Oxford house and gardens with some of the country's most modern conferencing facilities.



The versatile flat space of the Rhodes House function rooms can be configured to suit all types and sizes of events. The matrix below provides detailed room capacities.

Our flexible and connected conference suite can be subdivided into three sections - east, west and centre, which are available for individual hire.
