About this space

The Actress and Bishop Bar is a private bar space in The Alliance Hotel defined by neon-accented signage and a compact lounge layout.

Design: The room shows exposed brick, deep-painted walls and low-level lighting that keeps the space dim and focused. A curved velvet sofa, framed prints and ceiling string lights sit under visible beams, creating a small, contained interior.

Features: The space includes a PA system and built-in speakers and permits guest music or a hired DJ. The room has Wi‑Fi, air conditioning, step-free guest access and wheelchair-accessible circulation. A cleared centre area serves as a dancefloor and the layout supports flexible standing or seated arrangements under venue noise restrictions.

Ideal for: Small social groups seeking a relaxed, music-led evening in an intimate, informal bar setting.

What guests say: The Actress and Bishop Bar creates a celebratory, intimate vibe that suits private gatherings. The space is supported by attentive, professional staff who keep planning and onsite coordination straightforward.

FAQ

Yes, external musicians are welcome, but they will have to bring their own equipment.

Yes, the space can be wheelchair accessible via the other function space, the Mirror Room. Both spaces are located on the basement level; there is a small step at the door frame, no designated accessible toilet, and bathrooms in Actress & Bishop are slightly larger than typical cubicles. Viewing the space is recommended.
