About this space

The Hide is a Lounge in Big Chill Kings Cross and a semi-private area that provides a separated corner of the venue for a low-ceiling, club-style lounge experience.

Design: The space has a low ceiling draped in fabric and a central mirrored disco ball over a compact floorplate. Coloured club lighting and exposed beams produce an intimate, basement-lounge appearance.

Features: The space includes Wi‑Fi, air conditioning and natural light. The space also contains an open area functioning as a dance floor for standing socialising and dancing.

Ideal for: Small social groups wanting a relaxed, social lounge that can shift between seated and standing, danceable layouts.

What guests say: The Hide has a relaxed, chill atmosphere downstairs. The Hide contrasts with the venue's rooftop, which reviewers describe as livelier and more party-focused.

Birthday Party · 30 guests · November 2022

The space was NOT large enough for 25-30 people like I had booked for. The security staff were extremely rude to our party. They refused entry to a 19 year old guest despite them being accompanied by their parents. I was told it was my fault for not reading my booking terms and conditions. I showed how the booking terms and conditions, it said nothing about an age policy. The security staff then got the manager who was very kind and accommodating and allowed the 19 year old to enter. However, the event was a surprise party, and due to the security situation ruined the surprise.
