About this space

Accommodating up to 80 people, The Absolut Lounge is our smaller space and is perfect for day delegates, birthdays, hen dos/stag dos, engagement parties, you name it! It was recently refurbished with the addition of effect lights and a mirror ball, meaning this space can transform depending on any event requirement.

Located on our first floor with your own private entrance, toilets, and bar, this area is our most intimate of our private hire spaces and is also perfectly suited for birthdays, engagement parties, work parties, and much more.
