About this space

Middle Bar is a cocktail bar in Kinselas Hotel defined by its long marble service counter and abundant natural light from large windows.

Design: The interior pairs dark hardwood floors and exposed brick arches with a simple palette of painted walls and timber fittings. The ceiling features recessed circular coffers and a red-carpeted staircase rises to an upper level.

Features: A built-in PA system and fixed speakers support in-house audio, and external DJs and guest playlists are permitted subject to the venue's noise restrictions. Air conditioning and venue Wi‑Fi maintain comfort and connectivity, and a cleared area provides a dancefloor. Accessible toilets are provided.

Ideal for: Groups that want a lively, social standing reception with music and dancing in a compact, private-bar setting.
