About this space

The Harem is a semi-private Event Space in Ovolo The Valley defined by an eclectic, vintage lounge setting centred on mixed low sofas and armchairs.

Design: The Harem mixes mid-century and vintage pieces, with velvet armchairs, rattan seating and patterned rugs laid over timber and tiled floors. Tall shuttered windows provide soft natural light and ceiling chandeliers add classic detail.

Features: The Harem provides flexible lounge seating of sofas, armchairs and small cocktail tables that can be rearranged for informal set-ups. The space includes Wi‑Fi, air conditioning and an installed PA and speaker system for announcements or background music. The area has step-free access, is wheelchair accessible and is served by accessible toilets.

Ideal for: Small groups seeking a relaxed, conversational layout for seated drinks, informal networking and casual socialising.

What sets it apart: A full-height curtain partition that can be drawn to create a fully enclosed, private lounge within the hotel.

What guests say: The space reflects the hotel's quirky, eclectic design and benefits from friendly, attentive service.

The perfect space, a great location, excellent food, and a very professional and helpful team. I would highly recommend Ovolo The Valley for any events and look forward to using them again in the future.

Wedding · 15 guests · November 2023
We held our wedding ceremony in the Harem room at The Ovolo Fortitude Valley. Everything about the event surpassed our expectations - the room was wonderful, the catering was great (and we had more food than we needed), but the service was particularly exceptional. The staff were attentive, considerate and ensured that our guests were comfortable at all times. We were absolutely thrilled with how it went. Thank you!
