We recently stayed at H. Claremont and had a v-pleasant stay. Great location and good reception desk. The bathrooms were cleaned regularly and were always readily available. Continental breakfast isn't anything more than some standard cereals, coffee, toast and tinned peaches/pears. Room size was a little smaller than the impression we got from the pics. Bed was comfy tho and... More

We stayed at the Hotel Claremont in March, and were so pleasantly surprised with the hotel. As the F1 race was on, all hotels and hostels were completely booked up, but the hotel Claremont had a double bunk room left for a great price. The staff were super friendly and polite, and told us about the free wifi access which... More

My wife and I stayed here both at the beginning and end of our recent Australian holiday. In our opinion this an excellent budget hotel with friendly staff and good quality service. The room was clean, included a continental breakfast and was within walking distance of the local metro station. Sleep quality left a little to be desired as our... More

We stayed in a double room at Hotel Claremont for 6 nights towards the end of January 2012. The building itself is an old Victorian house situated in South Yarra. It's a brilliant location as South Yarra is a great area to stay in and the hostel really is as close to the train station as they say it is... More

In a great old building. Not in the centre but within one of the nicest areas, with a lot of cafes and restaurant (Chapel street!). Just next to the metro (South Yarra), so it was easy to go to the centre. Free breakfast. Free wifi. Rooms are okay. Not big but clean. But unfortunately no air con... More

Stayed here on vacation in Melbourne for 2.5 weeks and had an excellent time. Great location (adjacent to trams/trains) although be warned, the neighborhood (South Yarra) is very upscale. The crowd here is mostly business, I was the only single vacationing American there but I got to meet many great Irish, British and German folks who were using the Claremont... More

Sweet location althought the area was a little bit flash and poncy for a traveler like myself. Overall the building is old (like 200 years old maybe) but pretty well maintained. My friend felt like it was haunted though... Anyway we get to our room and it's tiny. For $40 aus I expected better, but I guess it was fairly... More

We stayed just one night at Claremont, in a small twin (bunk beds) with shared bathrooms. The place is clean and with clean sheets and towels provided. Staff was very friendly. Breakfast was a buffet with different types of cereal and breads. Nice! Location perfect.. You can walk it to the city center or take the metro or tram. There... More

Location was a 5 minute walk to South Yarra Train Station, tram stop. Apartment was clean. Laundry facilities available. Short walk to Chapel Street, restaurants, food stores, etc. Staff was very helpful at check in/out. Would definitely recommend to anyone visiting Melbourne if you don't want to stay in the heart of the city. With Melbourne's public transportation system (trams,... More

What a place! Very noice! Two minutes from South Yarra station but we didn't hear a train all night!?! And then a few minutes the other way to Chapel st! Great location. The rooms were small as expected but very comfortable and stylish and almost elegant! With high ceilings, polished floorboards and gracefully painted throughout. The beds were comfortable, the...
