CANBERRA’S BEST EVENT VENUE HIRE
Planning a business event? Whether it’s a corporate lunch, team strategy session, or a networking night with clients, the right venue makes all the difference. You need a space that’s professional, stylish, and practical.
When it comes to function venues in Canberra, The Statesman Hotel takes the hassle out of hosting and makes it a little more enjoyable. Here are five reasons our fully revamped venue is one of Canberra’s best choices for corporate events and functions.
1. A Location That Works for Everyone
Tucked in Curtin, just minutes from Parliament House and major business precincts, The Statesman is perfectly positioned for corporate events. There’s no battling the city or struggling to find a park—just easy access for locals, out-of-towners, and everyone in between.
With plenty of on-site parking and nearby public transport, your guests can arrive relaxed and ready to go.
2. A Space for Every Kind of Event
Not all events are created equal, and that’s why we offer a range of flexible function rooms. From small, private meetings to larger-scale networking nights, we’ve got you covered.
Boardroom: A polished, private space for smaller meetings or presentations
Conference Room: Ideal for seminars, corporate workshops and group sessions
Nancy B Cocktail Bar: Stylish, adults-only venue for launch parties or after-work gatherings
Policy Dining: A more elevated space for formal business lunches and dinners
We’ll help you choose the space that best suits your event and ensure it looks and runs exactly as you imagined.
3. On-Site Accommodation for Out-of-Towners
Hosting interstate guests or planning a multi-day event? The Statesman makes it easy to keep everything under one roof. Our modern accommodation is just upstairs—no taxi needed.
With a range of comfortable rooms and the same high standard of service throughout the venue, it’s the convenient choice for clients, teams, and organisers alike.
4. Food & Drink That Means Business
No stale sandwich platters here. Our in-house Policy Dining team serves a seasonal menu packed with fresh, flavourful options.
From casual working lunches to set menu dinners or post-event drinks at the bar, we’ll tailor the food and drink to suit the style of your event. You’ll also find Canberra’s best coffee just downstairs at Ballot Box, for that essential pre-meeting caffeine hit.
5. A Team That’s Got Your Back
We get it—planning an event can be a lot. That’s why our events team is here to help you every step of the way. From room setup to AV support, menu planning to last-minute tweaks, we’re all about making your job easier.
Our venue manager works behind the scenes, so everything feels seamless during the day, and your guests will be impressed.
