About the function space

This stunning VIP Room is small and intimate yet highly functional. It can be closed off for the ultimate exclusive experience, or fully engaged with the main bar (synched music, fox sports, lighting etc). Located behind the main bar it is cosy and comfortable, yet super stylish and versatile.

The decor is sexy and modern, with moody lighting, plush seating and lots of mingling space.

All parties come with a host/waiter and bar table service or a portable bar so either way the beverages are sorted.

Food-wise, Tessie Pearl Hotel is home to rotating food trucks, kitchen pop-ups, beer tap takeovers and roaming dessert bars, so no matter what you choose it will be fresh and delicious.

Remain in the venue after your party and enjoy the vibe. It's lights down and music up as the night progresses.
