SMC Conference & Function Centre Review

Mean spirited with drinks & nibbles considering the event was launch young people's careers.

Although overall facility was good, the food served was not good.

Some pretty good facilities here if a bit dated. The grand hall is a cozy yet kind of funny place to have an 'all hands' type meeting

Very Rude & condescending manager. Not impressed by the manager who was consistently rude when I visited the site. The manager told me to leave the premises simply because I was on the phone. I hope they treat others better than they did me

Nice function centre with easy access via trains to the city.

Great venue very well thought out but hello when your eating at a conference it would be good to bring seats with tables for people to be able to eat without balancing the damn food on your lap in a standing only room.

Easy to acces, close to Sydney's central train station

Good variety of different sized function rooms, but woefully inconsistent air-conditioning temperatures meant we were freezing in a small room and cooking in the large one. For a function centre, this is unfortunately a critical feature.

Easy to find, rooms are good size but could do with a couple less downlights, hard to see the screens, catering was brilliant but maybe too much. Pity staff who had to put all those tea cups away....teachers drink more espresso coffee, juice and water. Close to museum and central stations.

Just another characterless place for a conference or seminar. Nothing special but parking station across the road

Well built place , nice rooms for conferences and lectures.

Good location for functions dinners and social events. Interiot is a bit stilted but gets the job done

The rooms are comfortable and the staff are amazingly friendly and helpful

Wow, what a centre!!! :) AAA+++
Great atmosphere & conference rooms...

One thing to consider when booking this place is that you will hear the trains running under the centre all day

We had a formal event here. Strange venue and space. Hard to mingle as not easy to move around in large crowds. Main function room is odd shaped. If liking to book for event - think about space and crowd size. Fo d and drinks were good and service great. Convenient location.

Great function location, fantastic staff. thank you Loren & Wai!

Amazing conference centre, the staff are attentive and go well and truly above and beyond.

Had an amazing experience at SMC . I booked it for my engagement because it is located in the centre of Sydney, which is easy to find. Their staff is super friendly, honest and work efficiently. The food quality is also quite nice. Their charges are also reasonable. Its interior is also very attractive. Thanx for making my day special!!!

The cafe out the front does a roaring trade for good coffee and brekkie wraps.

I have had service problems here as its noisy and it is hard to hear but the brekkie food and convenience has seen me visit here a few times more than other places around the same area.

Looked in the museum and at some of the portraits. Well worth a look.

Basically a nice place, as long as you do not mind the rumble and sound of trains as they pass velow you

Conference room was fine, catered lunch was nice but salty, toilet cubicles a bit small. Overall, pretty good

Amazing venue for hosting big events and with reasonable rate

Nice place bu5 wish the cafe had more gluten free options.

One of my favourite places in Sydney, I am rather bias though as I am a Mason! It has I believe the most beautiful Lodge rooms in the country and the dinners following our meetings are the best I have ever had. The Museum of Freemasonry is absolutely fascinating and I simply cannot get in there frequently enough.

Great service & fascilitation of conferences and events.

A huge conference center in the middle of the cbd. I've been here for several events and it's always been a pleasant experience. Their catering is good but if there's never enough places to sit down. The staff are very friendly and the signs are accessible.

Had to eat our lunch out in the foyer or in iur confrence room other than that it was good

Beautiful conference rooms. The proximity to train lines results in vibration and noise in some rooms.

Good space. Varied areas to book. Clean, modern function centre. Minutes walk to Museum of Town Hall train stations. Would recommend if looking for a venue that easily fits 300 or so people. The staff are very kind and helpful.

Lots of 80's cement fantastic! Also the symbolism was evident which I did enjoy

This is a well appointed facility in the middle of the City. Easy to access from Museum station and good access to the city.

Only hitch is they have a small toilet for a big conference hall, so at times u have stand in a que

What can I say, fantastic setup and great staff and food. Always a pleasure to visit.

Awesome function & conference center, location in the city.

The venue was quite echoey but the bathrooms were clean. Food and drink were nice but kinda awkward space.

Wonderful lighting setup, space, comfortable chairs, outstanding sound quality and so more good things.

excellent conference space close to world square
tasty food and very friendly staff

Pretty ordinary mission for presenters. The screen was too bright with our stage lighting. This made it very difficult to engage with the audience. Added to this, BT remote clickers didn't work for some reason (interference) forcing presenters to interrupt their talks to get AV to advance their slides.

Nice place for a conference. Sadly lacking in seating in the public areas.

Ceiling lights are annoying spotlights, blinding you when looking at the presentation.

The passing subway sound is magnified by the
positive
feedback of microphone & speaker, causing loud low frequency noises

I would highly recommend this venue. On previous occasions we have utilised their spaces for Conference. The staff are professional & polite. Nothing is a problem. By your side all the way through your planning.

Conference rooms are well designed & catering is superb.

Perfect location, great catering, easy access. Super friendly events team.

Book this venue if you delight in having the rumble of trains beneath every other minute, to add texture to your event.
