The Chapel at The Rawson
About this space
The Chapel offers a truly unique setting with its exquisite stained glass windows, featuring a long high-top table running down the centre (with bar stools for up to 18 guests) and inviting, comfortable lounges. Perfect for stand-up style events, it has the capacity to accommodate up to 50 guests, with banquette seating arranged around the edges, creating an intimate and sophisticated atmosphere.
Conveniently located adjacent to the Grand Bar, The Chapel promises not only a unique but also a memorable event experience. This carefully curated space combines elegance with functionality, offering an ideal backdrop for various occasions.
PLEASE NOTE: There is no Bar in the Chapel so guests are required to go into Grand Bar (about 10 metres from The Chapel) to order.
