Grateful for having Sophie in our corner!

Sophie was very helpful and extremely efficient in helping us find the right space for our event. Otherwise, weeks later, we'd still be at the stage of looking for a venue. We'll definitely get in touch with her for our next company event!

Seems scammy

I run a space which I rent out sometimes when people email me so I was surprised to find someone from Hirespace had contacted me about my space which I had not listed online. I replied back saying my space isn't appropriate as it was listed on Hirespace as a Theatre. Then I received an email from the Hirespace team to say we have agreed to be listed on their platform which we never have! I have contacted them to ask them to remove our listing. It seems very scammy...

We're sorry for the confusion and concern this caused. We list venues to help them get discovered by event organisers - this is not uncommon for event venues - but our communication clearly needs improvement.

We've removed your listing as requested, and we're currently overhauling our venue communications to be much clearer and more transparent from the outset. Your feedback has been invaluable in highlighting where our process was falling short.

Thank you for bringing this to our attention and helping us improve. If you have any further issues, please feel free to reach out to support@hirespace.com.

Thank you for your review. However, Hire Space is a venue booking platform - we help people find and book event spaces. We're not a bar or restaurant ourselves.

It seems this review may have been intended for a venue you visited. If you let us know which venue this relates to, we'd be happy to help you leave feedback in the right place.

Pointless

This company have been endlessly spamming my venue for events that are far from suitable for me.

All they do is email the general email addresss and ask to book a date, something anyone could do themself without paying them commision.

They have no special deals or relationships with any venues - they are just a spamming middle man who take from both the venue and the client.
They offer nothing.

Thank you for your feedback. We’re genuinely sorry to hear that the inquiries you’re receiving through our platform haven’t been suitable for your venue, and that you feel our services don’t offer value. That’s certainly not the impression we aim to create.

Our goal is to connect venues with relevant event opportunities. When an individual finds your listing on our platform and makes an inquiry, it’s our aim for that lead to be as suitable as possible.

To clarify how we operate and where our value lies: Our platform streamlines the entire event booking process for both clients and venues. For clients, we provide a centralised place to discover venues and enquire with relevant venues. For venues like yours, we aim to deliver leads & opportunities from clients who have already identified your space as a potential fit based on your profile.

We only earn a commission when a successful booking is made through our platform, meaning we’re motivated by successful outcomes for both parties. This commission covers the technology, marketing and support we provide to bring those clients to you and facilitate the booking.

We’d appreciate the opportunity to understand more specifically what types of events you’re receiving that are “far from suitable.” This feedback is crucial for us to help you. We would be more than happy to review your venue’s profile on our platform and offer suggestions for optimisation. By refining your listing’s details, categories, and descriptions, we can help ensure you appear for more relevant searches and receive inquiries that are a better match for your space.

Please feel free to reach out to our venue support team at venues@hirespace.com with your venue details, and we can schedule a time to discuss how to improve your profile’s visibility and lead quality.

Super helpful and saved us a lot of time

Lily from HireSpace was incredibly helpful in helping us to source a dinner & drinks reception for an industry conference we are hosting.

Event planning can be incredibly time-consuming and working with Lily took away a lot of the stress of searching for venues, narrowing down your choices, securing viewings and finding out costings etc.

Would certainly use HireSpace again for future events.

Venue NOT wheelchair accessible ‼️

Sumei Studios Birmingham- This venue states that it is disability accessible, but it is not accessible for wheelchairs at all. Sadly we had to cancel half of our guests due to them not being able to actually access the studio, AVOID if you have mobility issues

Thank you for sharing your feedback regarding Sumei Studios Birmingham. We're truly sorry to hear about the difficulties you experienced with the venue's accessibility. That sounds incredibly frustrating.

We've looked into this on our end, and it appears your experience at Sumei Studios Birmingham didn't originate from an inquiry or booking made through our platform. Typically, when enquiries are made through our marketplace, we actively work to ensure that the spaces match your brief and requirements, including accessibility needs.

As we list over 100,000 venues on our site, we rely on venues providing accurate information for their listings on our website. As a direct result of your feedback, we've already removed all mention of disabled access from Sumei Studios Birmingham's profile on our platform. This will prevent similar misunderstandings for future users.

Since this experience wasn't facilitated by us, the most direct way to fully resolve your concerns would be to contact Sumei Studios Birmingham directly. They'll be best placed to address the discrepancies in their accessibility claims and discuss your experience.

We appreciate you bringing this to light, as it helps us in our ongoing efforts to ensure venues provide accurate information.

Great first time experience

Had never used Hire Space before so was pleasantly surprised to receive a call from Bradley introducing himself literally minutes after submitting my queries to some potential venues. It was clear that Bradley had listened and understood our brief as he was able to provide us with some really good venues. He was also very patient and extremely responsive to our never ending emails with additional requests/questions. Pleasure to work with and we'll definitely be using them again and would recommend them too.

Bradley's expertise is second to none!
From our initial meeting he provided me with great options pertaining to locations I required for my event.
He ensured he kept in constant communication every step of the journey, allowing me to relax a bit during my search. Will definitely use Hire Space again, and more specifically Bradley for future venue sourcing.

Lily was terrific in helping us source/book an event space for our summer party. She was very thorough and methodical. I had lots of questions and Lily was effective in communicating our requirements and needs to the event space and trying to find the best package in line with our incredibly tight budget. Thank you so much - I will definitely be reaching out when the winter party season rolls in.
