Our experience was excellent with Transcontinental Hotel. Ashley and the team were very accommodating, kept us up to date with changes from both ends and delivered quality service throughout the event. Food was excellent proportion (attendees wished we had ordered more sliders as they were delicious) and bought out at right times. The Trans Hotel team were also very accommodating at the end of our event as we ran well over time. Thank you so much for making our first End of Year Event since 2019 one to remember. I have not had any negative feedback from the 345 staff that attended.
More water dispensers around the bar - only due to the amount of people we had in that area

About The Transcontinental Hotel

Trading for 130 years, The Transcontinental Hotel is one of Queensland's longest-standing pubs. In January 2014, The Transcontinental Hotel underwent a contemporary redesign to emphasise its heritage and elegance as well as restoring warmth and atmosphere.

We boast multiple entertainment areas including our Public and Craft Bars, the Dining Hall, Beer Garden and Platform Bar.

Our state of the art audio and visual equipment has made 'The Trans' the perfect venue for great food, after work or pre-game drinks, functions or just good times with friends.

We're the beautiful old Queensland pub located opposite the Roma St train station.
