Since 1936, The Prince has been part of St Kilda’s story. Now, the icon returns with a pub, boutique hotel, live music and a rooftop terrace, all under one unmistakable roof.
The Prince has always been a place for long lunches, late nights, live music and the people who make the city feel alive. Nearly 90 years on, the story continues across six distinct spaces – each with its own rhythm, character and reason to stay awhile.
