The venue was easy to get to, and it was actually really great! The function coordinators were very helpful and responsive and their staff on the day were amazing! The food was plentiful and quite delicious! Great service!!! We would look at using The Oxford on Scholar again in the future.

Established in 1857 during the heady Victorian gold rush era, The Oxford Scholar Hotel served the area for more than 160 years.

Now situated in the heart of the RMIT City campus, the 'Scholar' has been given a modern new lease of life.

With the creation of a series of bar, dining and event spaces, The Scholar offers a relaxed yet sophisticated function experience.

The in-house menu selections are built upon locally sourced and fresh produce, offering delicious seasonal choices.
