Positionedd in one of Prahran’s most iconic pubs, L’Hotel Gitan offers a casual dining experience that will satisfy all preferences. Reinterpreting the idea of a neighbourhood pub, the hotel has been extensively remodelled by award-winning SJB Architects and Leeda Projects, and now offers flavoursome, well-prepared food complemented with a well-equipped wine list. Inspired by its art deco roots, the interiors are elegant and comfortable. Exuding a warm aesthetic with a sense of nostalgia, L’Hotel Gitan has a casual bar area with high tables and a fireplace, a warm bistro with banquette seating, an outside terrace with awnings, and an upstairs event space. At the heart of the hotel is an open kitchen where whole pigs rotate on a rotisserie, crepes are flipped and charcuterie is sliced to order. Pop in for a drink, try a freshly sliced plate of chacuterie, or tuck into a full French cuisine – it’s that simple. The specials menu changes regularly, based on seasonal ingredients and the chef’s inspiration, so you can always expect something different at L’Hotel Gitan.
