The Woburn Suite (rooms 22-23) is easy to find on the Ground Floor of 
the SOUTH BLOCK of Senate House (i.e. the section nearest the British 
Museum).

The North and South Blocks of Senate House are connected by an 
open-sided arched walkway that also gives access west to Malet Street 
and east to Russell Square.

If you approach Senate House from Russell Square, turn left when inside 
the walkway to enter the South Block; if approaching from Malet Street, 
turn right.

Once through the revolving door of the South Wing, go straight ahead 
past the Information Desk, keeping right, to the back of the hall. 
Ignoring the coffee bar, go through the swing door on your right and you 
will find the Woburn rooms on your left (they are signposted).
