An extremely popular wedding venue, the Devonport’s stately façade and inspiring location by the National Maritime Museum and Greenwich Park are a gift for event photographers and tourists. It occupies a cluster of buildings that used to be part of the Royal Naval College, and its decor is in the clean-cut, inoffensive style favoured by conference centres thanks to its many meeting rooms. Comfortable, spacious and a little corporate, but for a decent price.
A rich history? Check. Stunning palatial architecture? Check. Luscious green spaces and riverside walks? Check. If Greenwich hasn't been on your list of spots to visit in London, it certainly should be. Between the handsome Greenwich Park, the wonderfully designed Queen's House, the Royal Observatory with unmatched views and artisanal markets, you'll be swamped with choice.
Those in search of refreshment will find plenty in the classier chain restaurants and any number of the bars and cafés, while those looking for something grittier, head east to Greenwich’s more piratical neighbour Deptford. Just make sure you have a cosy base to return to at one of the best hotels in Greenwich.
