About the function space

The Metropolitan Hotel in Melbourne has been a firm favourite for over 160 years.

Our level one function room is stylish and contemporary. Finished with elegant lighting, an informal seating area, a fully serviceable bar area and a crackling fireplace in winter, this is an ideal room for all social and corporate gatherings.

The private entrance provide a VIP experience for any kind of party.

Weddings and birthdays are a speciality - sit-down for 110 with dance floor or for something different a stand-up cocktail style with substantial hand-held bowl food.
