Glasshouse Section - Transport Hotel
Federation Square, 2 Swanston Street, Melbourne
About the function space
Terrifically situated in the heart of town, this venue is just across from Flinders Street Station, trams and taxis. Sporting arenas and local attractions are also a stone's throw away.
The Glasshouse is a brilliant exclusive area next to the main bar, and you can have a fabulous portion of it for your party, including your own bar and bar staff.
You and your guests will be toasting the good life with a view of Flinders Street Station and the city lights.
The main bar is also visible, which means you can enjoy the Transport vibe from your private space.
After the venue removes the ropes and open your space up to the public, you may continue your revelry, or kick off with the Melbourne CBD on your doorstep.
