About this space

The Library is a semi-private lounge within the Berwick Inn Hotel defined by a relaxed, pub-style interior that prioritises conversational seating and informal gathering.

Design: The interior pairs timber-boarded, vaulted ceiling and exposed beams with deep-green banquettes, leather armchairs and a patterned carpet for a contemporary pub look. The lighting is warm and evenly distributed from recessed downlights.

Features: The space contains a modular lounge layout of banquettes, armchairs and low tables that can be rearranged for seated dining or standing mingles. The area sits adjacent to an in-room bar and includes complimentary Wi‑Fi, natural light and air conditioning.

Ideal for: Small-to-medium, relaxed social groups seeking seated meals or standing drinks in an informal lounge setting.

What guests say: The space is warm and inviting. The staff are friendly and attentive when hosting semi-private events.
