For years, London has been the obvious choice for business meetings, with its big boardrooms, central locations, and corporate buzz. But in 2024, more businesses are rethinking where they meet. Rising costs, crowded spaces, and endless travel headaches have many professionals looking beyond the capital for a better alternative.
At Tapper Spaces in Banbury, Oxfordshire, we’ve seen this shift firsthand, and here’s why more businesses are choosing to book their meeting room in Oxfordshire, instead of staying in the city.

Why Leave London? The Benefits of Meeting in Oxfordshire
When you step outside London for your meeting, you’re not just saving money, you’re creating a better experience for your team and clients.
Here’s what makes our meeting rooms in Oxfordshire the smarter choice:
1. Lower Costs Without Sacrificing Quality
