Hotel Barkly Venue Hire in St Kilda

Partystar Review

There is something for everyone here. The public bar is a classic Aussie pub with sports live and loud on the screens, trivia nights and pub grub.

Underground you will find a unique and decadent nightclub space, a den of debauchery.

Up on the rooftop you get all the trimmings of an elevated indoor/outdoor space including breathtaking cityscape views and alfresco fun.

All the areas are terrific for hanging out and also for functions.

Outdoor Area / Beer Garden

Stunning indoor/outdoor rooftop space.

Amazing view. We had a fantastic night here- We had never been to the venue before and infact hadn't even heard about it till our buddy held her birthady there on a Friday night. She had hired the room as you work out the lift, it was gorgeous! the lighting was perfect dim and moody with little candles scattered about on all the tables, really loungy and funky, it seemed really cosy and intimate even though the space itself was big. The windows are enormous with a totally sweet view of St Kilda, quite surprising actually.

At 11pm they opened up our section so then we were in with the general public as well- by that stage we were rather tiddled and it was great to see (just barely) some new faces. Oh yeah- the cocktails were killer, delicious and lethal, good combo, not to mention the eye candy shaken it up- pretty serious looking but he got the job done in fine form even if I do say so myself-hot!
