About this space

Event Area is a semi-private dining space in Podium's hotel restaurant that uses high-backed booths and screen partitions to create intimate dining bays within the larger dining room.

Design: The interior pairs a linear timber ceiling, patterned carpet and dark leather seating for a contemporary hotel-restaurant look. The palette relies on warm woods and muted tones under recessed lighting for a clean, structured appearance.

Features: The space includes a built-in PA system and speakers, venue Wi‑Fi and air conditioning. The area benefits from large windows that admit natural light and allows own music to be played. The layout is step-free and wheelchair accessible, and tables can be reconfigured for dining or presentation use.

Ideal for: Small groups seeking relaxed, seated dining in a semi-private hotel-restaurant setting.

What guests say: The space is modern and relaxed.
