Went to the Wharf Hotel for their igloo experience. For the price it’s definitely worth it! You’re right on the water, the igloos are so cozy- heaters, blankets and cushions. They were decorated beautifully and made the experience. We had a view of the Ferris wheel from our igloo which was insane. The food options were great- we had an entree to share, then got to select from a list of mains. I loved my lamb it was cooked perfectly. We also tried some of their winter special drinks and some classic cocktails.

Had such a lovely time with my husband, in the winter igloo to celebrate his birthday. The whole experience was so beautiful, and food was just simply divine. Service was amazing, in particular from Nikita and Chris who were really warm and attentive. To top it off, they had happy hours from 4-7pm! Highly recommended and we would definitely be back!

This was a really fun and interesting dinning experience.. the location was easy to find. The view of the river is fantastic if you're on the front igloo. The food and atmosphere was really pleasant, (recommend Lamb Shank/ Brisket Pie), great range of food and drinks for all. The service we recieved from Kylie 🍀 was the amazing. She always has a smile and gave us the time to explain or decide.

Came from interstate for work, and We booked an igloo for something different after work. . We had the absolute best time. Food was great. Good selection and yummy. One cocktail wasn’t great( tastes ick) but the AMAZING Rod fixed that straight away. His service was impeccable and he absolutely made our night. Would highly recommend here for any food but the igloo experience was just wonderful.

Ideas fantastic. But the group I went with all felt the share platter could have done with a little more bread/crackers.everyone enjoyed there mains. Have to say would have liked to be given clean cutlery for main course. Staff were nice. Shame the river is so dirty an full of rubbish right outside.but that's melbourne council not the hotel.great spot. Enjoyed.
