Function Venue
•In 1936, The Prince was the city’s grandest splash of art deco decadence. In the 40’s the US military set up camp, establishing an officer’s club and pretending not to notice the area relaxing into Melbourne’s red light district – despite a red light topping our rooftop flagpole. In the 70’s it was Pokey’s Drag Show & Pennie’s Nightclub, early institutions of the city’s LGBTQIA scene. Sex appeal and progressive politics. That ringing in your ears is from when The Prince was ground zero of Melbourne’s punk scene in the 80’s. Blood, sweat and beers. Architect Alan Powell was in charge of the clean-up in the late 90’s, with a sharp refurbishment that honoured our art deco heritage. By then, Australians were beginning to suspect our food scene was world-class; restaurant Circa opened its doors at The Prince and proved us right.
And as for right here and now? Prince Bandroom soundcheck is live. Little Prince Wine bar is flowing. Prince Deck is buzzing, Prince Dining Room kitchen is hot, The Atrium is cool and in our 39 boutique Hotel rooms, the beds are ready to be unmade. The event space is vibrant and versatile, making The Prince Hotel a favoured destination for private intimate gatherings, private dinner parties, stylish cocktail parties and corporate functions. With its historical charm, warm hospitality and modern amenities, it offers a unique setting for your private events

We went to The Prince to watch the Chiefs vs. Bills NFL Conference Championship, as advertised on their website. The promotion promised an "unbeatable atmosphere" for game day, but it was completely misleading. When we asked the staff to turn on the volume for the game, they refused, stating they never turn the sound on for any sporting events. How can you promote a major sports event without providing sound? It was impossible to enjoy the game properly, and we ended up having to leave and relocate to another venue just to get the experience we were looking for. Unfortunately, we missed part of the game because of this and were very disappointed. If you're looking for a true sports-watching experience, this is NOT the place to go. The advertising is deceptive, and the experience was underwhelming.
I love this hotel. It’s just different. Not stiff or ostentatious. The rooms are so beautifully done. Gorgeous bathroom and soft furnishings. The best position, central to everything. Complimentary glass of wine. Cheap, secure parking. It just has a good vibe about it . I’ve stayed a few times now and will again.
We had our Christmas party on the deck for the LongView team and it was amazing. Beautiful venue and the food was amazing. The team were all terrific too. Thank you for helping us celebrate the end of a terrific year :)
Our stay at The Prince Hotel was great! The room (Premier Suite) was lovely with two bathrooms, a separate living area and a balcony. Patryk and the whole team were so friendly and accommodating. The location is very handy as well.
I feel very disappointed with the restaurant. Food was not bad, and the prices are very reasonable. But service was terrible. The waiter was very rude and sarcastic all time. I felt very uncomfortable. I am leaving in the area and I will be never back !!!! There are much better places, with polite and profesional service!!!
