Hyatt Place Event Centre

We would like to extend our sincere appreciation to the entire team at the Hyatt Events Centre for delivering such a smooth and well‑executed event last night. From start to finish, the experience was seamless, professional, and handled with exceptional attention to detail. Our guests were impressed by the organisation, the ambience, and the overall flow of the evening, which is a testament to the high standards upheld by the venue. A special acknowledgement goes to Martin D’Gama, Director of Events at Hyatt Place Essendon Fields. Martin’s professionalism, calm leadership, and proactive communication played a significant role in the success of the event. His ability to anticipate needs, offer thoughtful solutions, and ensure every element was perfectly coordinated made the entire process effortless on our end. It is rare to encounter someone who combines operational excellence with genuine hospitality, and Martin consistently demonstrates both. We are grateful for the partnership, the care shown to our team and guests, and the commitment to delivering an exceptional experience. We look forward to working together again in the future.

fantastic food, staff were fantastic if too efficient and took plate away while husband was in the restroom (but replaced it without any fuss).

Great facilities for a large gathering. Graduation ceremony or corporate event. Wouldn't have a reception here though.

We attended a party at this place, and it was good sized room, bar, and all facilities are available.nice location .

Very good hall and plenty of car parks. Need more washroom facilities when hosting a big crowd.

Great place to stay. Very clean modern rooms and excellent service. The breakfast is notch.

Last Sunday we had the sad misfortune of attending the annual Christmas Party of my brother’s care organisation at this miserable, poorly run venue. Firstly, our bread rolls were stale in the extreme. Dry, cold offerings which would be more familiar in the 19th century prison system. The main course was lukewarm, and shocking. I have not seen such appalling food in many a long day. To add insult to injury, my plate was devoid of peas and the confused waiters had a tussle over the other plate that the first waiter was holding, upon which were peas. It brought to mind the Peter Sellar’s movie, "The Party". One carer on our table was of the Muslim faith and her halal meal arrived some 45 minutes AFTER we had been served. The plum pudding and paltry teaspoon of custard with disgusting. And cold. We felt so badly for the carers and their residents who look forward to this event each year. My husband commented that he would hate to think that such sub standard fare was served (and service was incredibly poor and unprofessional) up because the customers were disabled. Shame shame shame. I trust that serious kitchen and wait staff re-training be instigated forthwith. I certainly hope that next year’s Christmas Party is back at Dorset Gardens Hotel.
