Golden Rooms: golden rooms and green felt in the heart of Melbourne
Welcome to Golden Rooms — a Melbourne address where the calm of a classic gaming room meets the edge of an evening at the poker table. We've made a place for guests who expect more from their night than the standard program.

347 Collins Street Melbourne VIC 3000
Opening Hours
Mon–Fri: 10:00–22:00 Sat–Sun: 12:00–00:00
Two rooms, one house
Golden Rooms grew from the conviction that a good gaming night and a good conversation share the same foundations: calm, rhythm and attention to detail. In our Collins Street premises we combine an accessible gaming room with relaxed card games by day, and the understated mood of the poker lounge by night.
Every detail of the space is set up for guests who value discretion, craft and quality. We take no half measures — from the felt on the tables to the choice of chips and cards, everything serves one goal: an evening that works from start to finish.

An exclusive space for the thinking game
After an afternoon in the gaming room, we invite you into the lounge, where poker takes centre stage as a game of skill and friendly competition. It's a place for anyone seeking relaxation in classy surroundings, away from the bustle of the CBD.
Professional tables, top-shelf accessories and service that thinks along at every point of the evening make Golden Rooms the obvious choice for Melbourne's player community. Themed nights bring people together, and etiquette and gaming culture always come first.
A modern fit-out with classic warmth
The Golden Rooms spaces on Collins Street are designed to join modern simplicity with the warmth of a classic club. Leather armchairs in the lounge, atmospheric lighting and carefully placed gaming tables give the space a character of its own.
It's a place where you feel at ease — whether you're in for a focused evening at the main table or a quiet chat beside the game. The mood invites focus and relaxation at once, ideal for variants like Texas Hold'em.
We place great value on responsible gaming and on checking our guests' age. Entry to the rooms and taking part in card evenings is for adults only; we check this consistently at the door.
We operate fully within Australian rules, creating a safe environment for everyone in Melbourne who loves strategic games.
Read the rules and etiquetteThe Golden Rooms community
For regulars we offer memberships that give priority booking and access to private evenings in the lounge. Being part of the Golden Rooms community means sharing experiences with people who value the game at the same level.
Members also enjoy favourable terms for private events and invitations to small-circle tables that are never announced publicly.
Plan your visit
We recommend booking ahead, so we can set the room up for your numbers and you're sure of a spot. For the Poker Lounge, a reservation guarantees a place in the scheduled evening and a comfortable seat in the relaxation area.
Golden Rooms is a place where every guest comes first, and every minute counts as part of a well-hosted evening.
Do I need experience to come and play?
No. We have tables for beginners and hosts who explain the rules. If you like, join an intro night first and take a seat at the main table after that.
Does it cost anything to join an evening?
Details of entry and any participation costs for each evening are in our calendar and also available at the front desk.
Can I hire the room for a private group?
Yes, the lounge and part of the room can be hired for private evenings. Get in touch and we'll put a program and time slot together with you.
Classic gaming rooms in the centre of Melbourne
The feel of a room decides how an evening goes, which is why Golden Rooms works with fixed table layouts and considered lighting rather than crowds and noise. Our rooms are set up for a comfortable few hours of play, with space between the tables and acoustics that let conversation happen.
Our hosts guide guests through what's on: from quiet card tables for beginners to the main table for those who take the game seriously. Whether it's your first visit or you've played for years, there's always a table where you belong.
Features of the rooms
Thanks to our partnerships with regular suppliers of gaming tables and accessories, we can refresh what we offer regularly without compromising on quality.
Equipment that carries the game — no compromises
We don't compromise on equipment. Every table at Golden Rooms is maintained as if a tournament were being played on it tomorrow, because it's the equipment that decides whether an evening runs smoothly.
Gaming tables
Flat, felt-covered tables that are regularly checked and refinished. An even surface defines the comfort and tempo of every game.
Chips and cards
Heavy ceramic chips and plastic cards built for intensive use. They're replaced periodically so quality stays at tournament level.
Lighting and acoustics
Focused lighting above every table and soft materials on walls and ceiling. The light stays on the game and the sound stays at conversation level.
A personal fit-out for the room
Fitting out a room at Golden Rooms goes beyond placing tables. We think about walking space, seat height, where the service counter sits and where guests can leave their coats — details you only notice when they're missing.
Every room we open is its own space, put together from what we hear from our guests. Honest advice and attention to how things are actually used are our key to long-term relationships.

A special location, easy to reach
You'll find us in the middle of Melbourne, in a heritage building at 347 Collins Street, a short walk from the station and the Yarra. The location makes us easy to reach from right across greater Melbourne, while the building itself provides calm and privacy during your visit.
Generous opening hours allow anything from a short afternoon visit to a full evening in the lounge.

Intro nights and how the game works
Golden Rooms is more than a room with tables. We run intro nights where we explain the rules, hand rankings and the basics of the odds, so new guests sit down with confidence.
Participants come away with a different view of the game: less luck, more decisions. Our hosts are enthusiasts with years of experience who never present any one game as the only right one — we show you what suits you.
