Be the first to host an event in our beautiful new rooftop – packages now available for 2027.
Garden State Hotel is Victoria’s pub: a multi-level wonderland named after Victoria’s century-hold title ‘The Garden State’. Standing proudly on Flinders Lane, experience a vibrant community watering hole for all occasions. Made up of many nooks and lush green corners, each space offers a different mood – gather in the public bar & beer garden for after-work drinks and late-night sessions, wander down to Rose Garden for a basement cocktail, or visit Tippy Tay for a lively Italian dining experience.
Fancy a post-dinner drink? Discover the new-look Observatory, a moody after-dark lounge experience serving bespoke cocktails, small plates, and vinyl tunes. Arriving soon, the all-season Rooftop Garden sits perched above all the action.
