Funerals & Celebrations of Life

The George Hotel offers a warm and welcoming setting to celebrate the life of a loved one, with free on-site parking, nearby city car parks,
ground-floor function space and flexible options for every occasion. Our spaces include Darwin’s Brasserie, a comfortable and inviting restaurant ideal for gathering with family and friends.

We can accommodate intimate gatherings or larger receptions of up to 110 guests, with the option of private bar facilities. Whether you prefer a relaxed finger buffet, a traditional afternoon tea, or a sit-down three-course meal in our restaurant, our experienced team will ensure the occasion is tailored with care and respect to meet your needs.

From the moment you arrive, one of our dedicated team will personally welcome you and your guests and will provide refreshments and support throughout.
