Looking for a memorable space to host your next small event in Hobart? Some of the city's best spaces are hidden in plain sight, with the RACV Hobart Hotel possessing all the crucial elements needed for a successful event under one roof, right in the middle of the city.

Whether you're planning an end-of-year get-together for your footy club, a landmark product launch for your business or a once-in-a-decade extended family reunion, here's what makes the RACV Hobart Hotel the perfect place for your next event.

Multitasking spaces

In-the-know corporate event organisers know that the RACV Hobart Hotel is one of the city's best spots to host a small event. Perfect for groups of 50 - 80 people, the venue has a long history of hosting corporate events for local businesses and organisations. What many people don't know is that anyone can book a space at the RACV Hobart Hotel. From sports presentation nights to 50th birthday bashes, intimate weddings and beyond, the centrally-located property has everything you need to pull off the perfect event. Filled with natural light, the hotel's pre-function space is a top spot for guests to mingle before the event, with the character of The Stables providing that classic Tasmanian heritage backdrop that you won't find in most other venues.

Heritage touches

Many modern event spaces lack character, but when it comes to heritage charm, the RACV Hobart Hotel has an ace up its sleeve with its onsite bar, Cascade on Collins. Once the head office of the legendary Cascade Brewing Company, this refurbished building that dates back to the 1800s is an event space guests will be captivated by. Whether you host a private event in the bar or use it as a meeting place to get everyone together before your event, the bar's striking exterior, sandstone walls and framed images of Cascade HQ's heyday give this proudly Tasmanian bar a distinct local flavour that sets it apart from the rest.

Essential ingredients

Transporting guests to and from multiple venues can be costly and time-consuming. Hosting an event at a space that also has accommodation and an onsite restaurant and bar is a clever trick event organisers use to minimise stress and travel time. Charcoal Restaurant champions Tasmanian ingredients, with freshly-caught seafood and farm-fresh produce appearing on the sophisticated menu. Beyond the menu, the restaurant's floor-to-ceiling windows offer streams of natural light and charming streetscape views, a real bonus when considering many restaurants are dark, cavernous spaces not suited to events. With a refined menu, well-drilled staff and clever room design, Charcoal has all the key ingredients that make up a memorable event space.

Room to move

Choosing the right venue for a special get-together with friends is essential. The RACV Hobart Hotel's range of room options are well-suited to small group events like hen's days, milestone birthdays and other celebrations. Deluxe apartments are ideal for group trips, with the Penthouse a step-up for guests who want to splash out and celebrate in style without breaking the bank.

In the thick of it

Nothing beats being in the heart of the city. Choosing an accommodation option out of the city or on the fringes of Hobart means everyone will be away from the action and relying on taxis to get around. Located in central Hobart, the RACV Hobart Hotel is only a stone's throw from restaurants, bars and well-known drawcards such as Salamanca Wharf and the MONA ferry. Being so close to all that Hobart offers means you'll spend less time in taxis and more time having fun with your friends. It's a win-win.
