Rivergum Restaurant.
The 100-room hotel has five bars, six function rooms, an infinity pool, and offers a luxe dining experience with the Rivergum Restaurant. The restaurant’s menu features local produce and beverages, and is open daily for breakfast, lunch and dinner. After officially opening its doors on 8 June 2021, the Bridgeport was awarded Best Overall Hotel and Best Redevelopment Hotel – Country at the 2021 AHA|SA awards. Add the national AHA’s recent award to the collection, and it seems the future is
bright for the Bridgeport. The Bridgeport has also been instrumental in boosting local employment rates in Murray Bridge. Students at Murray Bridge High School who were taking Certificate ll or lll in hospitality or cookery were offered jobs as juniors, and jobs forums were held for locals. As far as what’s ahead, Ian said the team are working on encouraging businesses to hold corporate functions at the Bridgeport. The plan is also to feed off the new
attractions in Murray Bridge, including the $35 million racetrack, The Bend motorsport complex at Tailem Bend, and Monarto Safari Park. Upcoming projects include a $50 million, 350-home development, and a water park, set to further the appeal of the area. “We’re one of the vital pieces in the puzzle… we provide 4.5-star accommodation in a country town, a mere one hour’s drive from Adelaide on the freeway,” said Ian.
