Metropolitan Hotel
(Upstairs Function Room)

263 William Street, Melbourne

About the Venue

Our level one function room is stylish and contemporary. Finished with an open fireplace, elegant lighting, an informal seating area and a fully serviceable bar area, this is an ideal room for all social and corporate gatherings.

The room seats up to 130 guests for board meetings or any small gathering and up to 200 guests for a cocktail party. Lunch, dinner and anything in between.

It is the perfect space for a product launch, uninterrupted meeting or intimate cocktail party. Engagements, 21st's, trivia nights and end of financial year celebrations are just some of the events we cater for here at The Metropolitan.

Weddings are a speciality - sit-down for 110 with dance floor or for something different a stand-up cocktail style with substantial hand-held bowl food.
