Metropolitan Hotel
(Downstairs Main Bar)

263 William Street, Melbourne

About the Venue

It's impossible to miss the 10 imposing bronze sculptures that stretch the length of the marble bar and more is the surprise when you realise that aside from being works of art that beer is actually served from them.

Our ground level main bar also comprises an open plan design with polished floorboards, a spacious marble-topped bar and separate stage area for entertainers.

It's the perfect spot for all manner of celebration.
