Set on Princes Wharf within the New Zealand Maritime Museum, The Maritime Room offers elegant private dining rooms in the Auckland CBD. From intimate dinners & breakfasts to premium hosting, our secluded spaces deliver the privacy, style, and service that discerning guests expect from New Zealand’s finest private dinner venues.
Exceptional spaces, systems and service
Choose from configurable private function rooms in Auckland designed for conversation and comfort. Our pillarless rooms scale from small gatherings to larger dining formats, with attentive staff, reliable AV, and discreet entry. If you need private venue hire for client hosting, milestone celebrations, or leadership dinners, we tailor private dining in Auckland to your brief.
Breakfasts that start the day right
Host private room breakfasts with The Maritime Rooms daytime brunch services instead: barista coffee, fresh-pressed juices and chef-led menus that keep things light, seasonal and energising. Perfect for leadership briefings, client catch-ups and early project kick-offs in our private dining rooms. Choose plated or shared breakfast formats, add a short presentation, and still have everyone at their desks by mid-morning. Trust us for premium private room hire for morning hosting in the Auckland CBD.
Dining that defines the occasion
Our kitchen creates refined menus for shared plates or formal courses, matched with curated wines and premium beverages. With polished service and timing that suits your run sheet, we’re among the best private dinner venues Auckland CBD has to offer when food and presentation matter.

Welcome guests to a calm, well-appointed room where conversation flows. Whether it’s a tasting-led evening or a private room dinner with short speeches, lighting, music, and service are tuned to your preferred mood. For a truly discreet dinner private room in Auckland, we keep the focus on your guests.

“Our event went well, I would say we would have had close to 200+ people.”
Thanks to Lea and your staff. The food was great, and the evening was enjoyed by all. We would look to use the Maritime Function Centre again for future functions.
