They lock them.. you have to ring concierge. We needed to change our baby and it took 10mins for them to get there.

I would like to to tell you that this show exceeded our expectations on many levels but sadly it didn't. We love the venue (frequent visitors) but the evening left us feeling disappointed. It lacked a certain something. Don't misunderstand me we did have a fun time, good banter and many chuckles but these were not linked to the show.... More

I had booked a table in the Circle Restaurant for lunch prior to seeing Oliver! at the Hippodrome.

We chose to have a main and a dessert with coffee... More

I came here to see Stomp with my mum not too long back and have been coming here for years. It's nice to see the changes the Hippodrome has gone through as they've been re-vamping it for a while now, every area you walk into looks brand new, all the chairs and sofas are plush and stainless and there's now...
