Ministry of Sound Review

The best night club sound system you can get in London, if you're up for that then you may have to get used to the many Japanese goers that can get a little rude! Other than that a fab place to be with the best DJ's in town.

Extremely expensive drinks and door tickets. Full of people on drugs.

If you #MUSIC & you 2#PARTY then this is a must visit at least once in your life. Best sound system on the planet!

Professional and classy. Tourist friendly world famous night club still delivers and still impresses. Best sound and lights anywhere (main room)

They host internationally renowned DJs!!

Great sound system.

You could really tell the difference between music genres from one room to another.

Drinks at are reasonable price.

But honestly, perhaps the thing I really liked is that the security staff is very polite and friendly.

The crowd itself is friendly, you don't feel unsafe or expect someone to touch you inappropriately.

Apres New Years was 2 tonnes of fun. Great sound system

Stick to Box room and main floor. Overall pretty good still best club in south

Bought a ticket for 65 pounds the 31th December of this year. We thought it was a good idea to go there... What a joke...
Drugged people, the volume of music is crazy... You will bleed after 1 hour. Very bad place... If you want to enjoy a night with friends in London go to the bar near westminster :)

nice crowd, met lots of new people, great night out, can get busy sometimes

If you like white people on drugs, sweaty black people, and a claustrophobic environment make sure you come here. Hell why not, you may as well also get punched in the face for the fun of it. But thats ok, because you can treat yourself to an expensive drink or a random hotdog stall outside.
Woo go ministry

Great vibe in the club. Great mix of music. Having aircon made it very comfortable all night.. would recommend the burger bar outside as the food is awesome. Took a very long time to get in via guest list but had an amazing night once inside

First of all, the security here are totally unprofessional and rude. You will be spoken to like dirt by default and thrown out for unacceptable reasons. You can't make a complaint either because they coincidentally go deaf when you ask them their name and what company they work for. The security here are notoriously abusive of their power and yet the club does nothing to curb this behaviour.
As for the actual club experience itself: it's very mediocre. If you want to listen to basic music and deal with massive over crowding you can do that at literally any other club. If you want to enjoy yourself and be treated like a human then go elsewhere.

As stated in previous reviews, be WARNED that s their security team is unfair and will find any reason to get someone kicked out.
I had all three of my tickets scanned for myself and two friends then we separated from women and men security line.

It was really upsetting that we could not enjoy our night because of the staffs unprofessionalism.
If I could rate this establishment 0 stars I would.

Bouncers have a disgusting attitude, willing to openly refuse entry to men and allow women in to suit their own agendas. Quoted me a "45 minute wait time" and let the girls straight in behind us with no question. Avoid this place at all costs. Security is a joke and will seek to actively ruin your night. Have filed a complaint with the police for assault also

An excellent box, and with the different rooms there is something for everyone!

Amazing place I went to see Jensen, Sigala, Nevada and Blonde it was so insane loved it.

Worst experience ever, staff was so rude. Very boring inside.

Complete trash one DJ is stopping the track to talk his bs during every single song asking who's birthday it is more than 5 times and not even playing the songs in full other DJ talking about how he is drunk and high just playing shitty slow jams for a crowd full of mandem looking to go hard in the paint

Rightfully named the best soundsystem in Europe...hosting all genres, all vibes and even cheap student nights!! Got mashed up too so whats not to love. Drinks are PRICEYYY, AVE A GOOD FEW BEFORE YOU GO IN

Ministry of Sound has the best VIP experience in England(and probably even europe). the night was perfect, and worth every penny. The service at the club was great considering how busy it was and they treated me and all 9 of my guests amazingly. met loads of people on the dance floor, this place has a really nice crowd. i seriously cant think of a problem with MOS. I will make sure to return some time soon. A night to remember!

Great night at Groove Offer, 7hrs of non stop dancing. My body hurts, great work out though

Great Security

Its nice to be welcomed by friendly security! The drinks are a little pricey but to be expected with the events they host. Bar staff serve quickly. Nice venue you certainly feel safe here.

Music not dance-worthy, everybody dances nonetheless. Loud Room is one of the trippiest.

The 27th Birthday was aweful. The most repetitive, monotone, heartless and boring music i have ever heard. Souless,arrogant DJ's. How can they make an entire night sound like the same song over and over. I wish i could post the video of the entire club just standing around nodding their heads. A disgrace, Ministry should be ashamed of themselves. The main room was just people queueing at the bar talking. How can these so called DJ's not read a room and be able to adapt their set. If anyone had goosebumps it would be from standing in the cold outside. Noone could express themselves and i wouldnt want to listen to that laughable nonsense music if i was in a coma. 27th birthday, a celebration of what, Tranquilisers?A huge shame as i have had other nights here that were exceptional. I will never go back. Sad!!!

Not worth for one star!!! Extremely rude securities outside

Very nice night club playing house n garage fAmous in London.

Ranked one of the best clubs in the world, and for a reason - Ministry invites the best DJ talent, which then takes full advantage of their amazing sound system. With multiple rooms each suited to a particular style, the atmosphere is always great. Plenty fun for both hardcore ravers and casual tourists.

Still an institution just not the best music anymore.

Abusive/rude staff, bad music, expensive drinks don t waste your time here!!!

The legendary club what you must visit if you havent done it jet. Sound is mindblowing. A bit too expensive but the service is outstanding.

Nice and very secure place but too electronic atmosphere

Top club, can go to England just to visit ministry, been there about 15 times, always the best music and top atmosphere !!

I have never enjoyed this club, I don't understand the hype

Bad experience, staff were rude, drinks were bad and atmosphere was not nice at all!

The worst. I paid around 26pounds and escaped from the club in 30m. Weird vibe with rubbishy music choice. I have no words to say more.

The worst clubbing experience. I ve read the comments here and decided to go.
Few words about this place:
1. 3 rooms with different music, 2 of which are too small. There wasnt any space to dance or even move. Feels like you re in metro at peak-hour.
2. Music is completely sh$t. If you come to club for DANCING forget about this place. I was very disappointed and left club too early.

Had a fun night here, good music, would come again.

It was really a bad experience ! The staff/security is unfriendly, not professional and permitt to enter people with "sunglasses" (all we can understand what i mean ).
The three black mens at entrance are really rude and they dont understand easy and normal situations between guys (people want have normal fan, not dangerous). Keep calm and Relax, this place is not the center of the universe and inside the majority of the people is not so "normal" so, learn to work well and better !!!
The rest of the Club is really expansive and all drinks are overprice. If you are coming in London don't come here guys !! especially if you are Italians ! There are some discriminations here ! Trust me!

The light shows and the sound system are amazing enough to make me not care about the crazy drink prices.

Don't understand what the hype is about - spacious, yet busy, but overpriced and music was really not that great.

I basically have up when someone from this club stood as a Tory candidate.

Very nice and big night club. The sound systems are very good

Expensive drinks but great sound system and atnosphere

Good music and atmosphere, drinks are very expensive though!

Best Disco, House and techno music. Two room available.

Good for your time to do not the beat the way to be a few days of my friend of my friend of my

Best sound system in London, and great infrastructure as far as clubs go, but the crowd most nights is made up of tourists and students. Serious music lovers beware.

This place is kinda like my hell on earth, some people would enjoy it.

First time at the club and found the bouncers outside to be intimidating and borderline passive-rude, the one with the kind of short straight line mohawk haircut if remember correctly. Plenty of other reviews mentioning the same problem too, the managers just do not care about the experience of their customers maybe. Expensive entry too for not so much a pleasant first impression however am giving 3 stars because the interior was alright and music was okay, lots of techno which some people might not be the biggest fan of however can query music genre online and before paying upon entry. Unfortunately might not be returning due to the entry not being pleasant. Lazy managers should take more responsibility for good customer experience especially when many reviews of a single particular problem and especially when charging so much

Great club with multiple rooms for different flavors of music.

Music and crowd was cool, but there was zero space to dance. Like, completely squished in. The side rooms were better though

Over hyped nightclub, popular with the tourists and people new to London

Decent venue, good sound, staff do their job well enough, usually with a smile which is nice. Is a little smaller than I expected for the capacity and layout and drink prices are absurdly high, even for London, could just have been the event I attended though.

They have plenty of offers for students nearby. Every night new themes. Tickets are not that cheap but well worth it. Love it.

Straightforward. This is probably the best word I can use to describe ministry. A staple of the student scene in London, it is one of the most renown clubbing venues. It's a cheap and dirty night out. Whilst it may not be as glamorous as some of the other venues, it does to job. I have organised a few large scale events at this location. The organisers are more than happy to come and help you arrange anything you might need and will look after you on the night. Being such a large venue does afford you some leeway when it comes to negotiating prices. Best suited for very large groups (50+) where you can get your own areas cordoned off for yourself.

Atmosphere was okay. Didn t understand why this club is so popular. Place inside looks plain and simple, not clean in my opinion. The best part about the night was delicious pizza
Would not go back here

Michael hardy i am a big fan of ministry of sound nightclub London i have got lots of CDs of ministry of sound with best wishes regards Michael hardy

The best club I've ever seen!! Sounds system is
absolutely amazing!!
I'd like to see Carl Cox in there some day ;-)

LOVE this club so much, staff are always nice and the music and laser light shows are out of this world, highly recommend Ministry, once you've been to Ministry you will understand clubbing in a completely different way, its sooooo GOOD

A wonderful place, where tasteful music and inexpensive spirits are combined in a delicious way. For those who still doubt it, youth happens there.

I found my love of House Music in this club & spent most weekends in here from early 92-96. Was always the place to be. The best DJ's from around the world, my faves, Frankie Knuckles, David Morales, Master P some amazing live PA's and the atmosphere was always electric. My Boyfriend worked on the door so we got to skip the massive queue's that used to snake round the side of the building and get in free. It didnt even have a drinks licence in those days but we didnt care, we just came to dance. Glad it's still going strong but i reckon our days were the best as the music was better :)

I had this place hyped up cos I wanted to go for so long.. I was really disappointed. Drinks were expensive, it just lacked atmosphere, punters are really pushy and I just had drinks spilled downy back and my front. Actually couldn't wait to leave... Such a shame

Been there on a new years evening...incredible place to be at!

Denied entry just coz one of the bouncers had a mood.
Ministry of sound is no cheap venue, expected better service but couldn't even get in. Please screen people you are hiring. Received no response to any emails reporting my experience as well.
