Sasha was such a fantastic function coordinator. From the start of planning until our wedding day, no hassle at all. All our guests enjoyed our very intimate wedding. Plus the food! It was superb! I can't thank Sasha and The National Hotel enough for making our wedding memorable. Sasha and her team are highly recommended.
The ambiance was great, perfect venue for a little party, highly recommended
It was a bit hot and stuffy - no ventilation unless u keep the privacy door open. Other than that awesome venue for a little party
Hosted a birthday celebration at The National Hotel and could not recommend it enough. Great venue, delicious food, reasonable prices and friendly staff!
Seamless from the team at The National Hotel, from an organisational standpoint all the way through to management on the night.
