All rooms come equipped with Smart TVs, whiteboards, and free WiFi, ensuring a seamless and productive experience for your team or guests.

Our experienced functions team is on hand to tailor your event to your needs. Whether you're planning a board meeting, workshop, team-building session or client lunch, we can assist with everything from room set-up to catering. Options include:

• Morning and afternoon tea with barista coffee, pastries, and snacks
• Working lunches, buffets, or sit-down meals
• Gourmet barbecues served on the lawn overlooking the marina
• Elegant banquets for end-of-year or milestone celebrations

And for something truly memorable, why not add an afternoon sail on the River Derwent? It’s a popular choice for team-building and a great way to cap off a productive day.

Whether you're looking for a professional environment, a relaxed setting, or a mix of both, the Squadron offers the perfect balance of business and hospitality in one of Hobart’s most picturesque locations.
