Hi Kirsty, Thank you for your note. I had a wonderful birthday celebration yesterday…the room was the perfect size, the service was great and the food was delicious. Thank you for all your help in arranging our function and please pass on our thanks to everyone else involved on the day. We would particularly like to thank Hugh for looking after us so well… he was outstanding. We’ll happily recommend The Botanical as a function venue to our friends and will quite possibly be return clients at a future date! With thanks, Chris and Ray

Hi Kirsty, Thank you so much for assisting us with organising my husband’s 50th celebration. Right from the start we knew we were in good hands, from responding to our initial enquiry, general communication and the information provided to answering our questions along the way. The night was brilliant and we all had a fabulous time. We didn’t leave til 1am!!! Nina was our host for the night and was excellent in helping to set up the space to ensure it was reserved for our guests. The service and food was excellent throughout the night with great attention to detail. It was clear to us that all staff genuinely made an effort to make the night a success and it certainly was. Many of our guests asked us throughout the night ‘how did you find this place?- it’s great’ We are so appreciative of everything you have all done that made the night so special and will highly recommend Botanical Hotel to friends looking for a fabulous venue. Thanks again, Yvette and David Jaksa.

Hi Laura Everything went really well and everyone had a great time. So much so that your staff pretty much had to prise everyone out of the Archer room. The Botanical gateaux also had rave reviews. We forgot to see if there was any left to take home!! Thank you and all the staff for making it a memorable 21st for Callum. Kind regards Mary

FAQs about Botanical Hotel Party Venues in Melbourne

Can I bring my own birthday cake?

Of course! You’re welcome to bring a cake that suits your taste and occasion. A small service fee applies, but we also offer a delicious in-house selection of celebration cakes if you’d rather leave it to us. Just ask your event coordinator for the options.

Absolutely. When your event winds down, the celebrations don’t have to. Head over to our Main Bar, open late every night. Enjoy Happy Hour specials daily, and on Fridays and Saturdays, a live DJ keeps the good vibes going well into the evening.

Not at all! There’s plenty of parking around the Botanical Gardens, and much of it is free after hours. We’re also easily accessible by public transport, making it easy for guests to leave the car at home and enjoy a drink or two.

Yes! Our event manager works closely with the head chef to tailor packages that suit your style and impress your guests. Just give us a call on (03) 8644 4041 or email events@botanicalhotel.com.au to start planning.
