Cleo's Cocktail Lounge at Spice Market Melbourne


Why you'll love this venue

  • Features antique decors, ceiling with 25,000 sparkling Swarovski crystals, 20 premium versatile lounges and multiple bars.
  • Offers premium beverages, including the signature Turkish Delight Martini and a menu of Mezze style dishes of authentic Middle Eastern and Oriental flavours.
  • Melbourne's iconic bar, lounge, and nightlife venue with ladies night, the best DJs, private lounges for hire, and live music.
This intimate, seductive space oozes all the Saharan glamour you'd expect from anything with the name 'Cleo' in the title. The carpet, with its infusions mahogany and khaki is sexy. The dazzling light fixtures that hang from the ceiling are sexy. The way you get in, via private elevator, is very sexy. By hiring Cleo's Cocktail Lounge, you're not only hiring Cleo's Bar, but also the Isis Room and Rosetta Room. It's a great way to have an exclusive night of partying, in a manageable space (as in, without hiring the entire venue).

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ I recently visited Spice Market with my colleagues for an after-party, and it turned out to be an incredible experience! From the moment we walked in, the atmosphere was absolutely electric. The décor and theme are unlike anything I've seen in Melbourne, with a perfect mix of luxury and exotic vibes that instantly make you feel like you're in for a special night. We tried a variety of drinks, and they were all top-notch. The standout for us was definitely the 1L vodka, which comes in a flying Swan 🦢 – a fun and unique presentation that really added to the experience! It’s a must-order if you're planning a night out here. The bartenders really know their craft, and the drinks were served quickly despite how busy it was. The staff were also super friendly and helpful, adding to the overall great vibe of the place. You can tell they take pride in keeping the venue clean and well-maintained, which made us feel comfortable the entire time. The music was on point – not too loud, but enough to keep the energy high. All in all, Spice Market is an awesome spot for anyone looking to have a memorable night out. I’ll definitely be back!

Mystic ambient! And above average bar with nice food (would not say a full star restaurant). We had a pleasant night however we missed the dance and party! The setup at the back is surprisingly culture rich with all the bells and whistles. If you are looking for a bar, but need more than a bar! Less noise, som coziness!, and enhanced experience, Spice Market is definitely the go to.

It is rare to find a venue where everything runs smoothly from start to finish. The Spice Market shows exceptional professionalism from beginning to end. I arranged to meet with their events manager who took the time to show me the different areas available, I was provided with all the information required to be able to make a well informed decision on what I wanted for the event. During the whole time leading up to the evening there was excellent, clear communication. When the evening finally arrived, it was an outstanding night, the Spice Market Team ensured a smooth evening with drinks and food. Their teamwork really ensured the success of the night. My guests continue to talk about it being the best night they have ever been to and such an excellent venue. The venue is a wonderful experience in itself, a well thought of design and ambience. The Spice Market provides what a lot of places lack these days, excellent customer service.

We had our company staff party there and we had such a big night! Remy the Spice Market Bar Manager was absolutely amazing! Spoilt us with some very yummy special lychee cocktails to finish our Grey Goose bottles. The food was great and service was very quick. But the best thing was how helpful the security team was. By the end of the night some of our guys got a tad drunk. But they helped me manage my staff get into Ubers, helped me look after one while I helped another. They were so nice and gentle. We will definitely be back for another company get together!
