Melbourne is quite a big city, and you can expect to find some cool locations in all of its corners. However, after checking out the most busy locations, we’ve come to a conclusion that areas from East to North Melbourne are the most popular to rent. You can also check out South Yarra for some cool beer gardens and courtyards.
You can hire open and airy outdoor spaces that are perfect for the warmer months. Check out gardens, terraces and patios if you feel like staying outside. On that note you can also look into the city’s nicest rooftops, and feel the breeze in your hair while you grab a snack and an afterwork drink. But if you prefer to stay indoors, then make sure not to miss Melbourne’s cellars and fantastic lounges. We hope you’ll have an amazing time!
Manager was friendly, thorough and prompt. Staff on the night were friendly and helpful and went the extra mile to make it a great night. Guests commented on the great cocktails and vibe. The space is cosy, chill and convenient. We liked being able to sit or stand and being close to the bar 🥂
The entire process of booking my small wedding reception at The Grace Darling Hotel was incredible! All the staff I spoke to were incredibly helpful, they even helped my mum and mother in law with organising flowers and cake set up! Once we arrived it got even better, the staff were so friendly and helpful to my family and friends! I cannot even begin to describe how impressed all our guests and myself were! Thank you for making our wedding so memorable and special
Jes was brilliant in helping us organise our event at Concrete Boots even though we are based in Europe. The options of food and drink suited our needs perfectly. The venue offered plenty of space for our 80+ guests with pool table and plenty of seating as well. Staff were fantastic on the day. Overall a wonderful experience from start to finish.
The Purple Emerald lounge was the perfect venue to host my 21st bday party at. The staff were lovely and so accomodating, ensuring I had the best time. The atmosphere and vibe was awesome!
the team were excellent - thank you for helping me plan this event with such short notice, and for being so thorough from start to finish.
Had the best time at our function at La Di Da. Great venue and a great team that took great care of us. Easy to deal with from start to finish.
The staff were incredibly helpful to a mate and I planning a low-key birthday party for him. They made everything very clear, were organised and timely, and maintained a good vibe when the guests arrived.
Our corporate networking event was fantastic - thank you to Leela for making the whole process easy. Food was great, all feedback was extremely positive. We'll definitely use your facilities again!
