Prime location. Enjoyed my stay. Price was good. Will stay again.

Christopher Australia

This is a funky old world guest house with a perfect location. All shared bathrooms but they are individual en-suites so you lock yourself in and it’s all yours. Comfy beds and crisp clean linens. Parking can be a little tricky but it’s very close to South Yarra train station so access to the city, the footy, the tennis, the gallery and everything else is super easy. Loved our short stay!

Debbie Australia

Close to the train station, clean, nice common area, close to the restaurants and mall. Friendly and helpful staff. Clean wash rooms and shower facilities. All in all, I liked the place and I would stay there again.

Eldon Canada

I love everything about the Hotel Claremont. The location and neighborhood is amazing - very close to South Yarra train station and 58 tram station, and lots of restaurants, cafes, 7-11 and malls nearby. The room is quite small but it's enough for a person to open their luggage. It's also equipped with TV and extra fan. The hotel is well-kept and generally clean. There's luggage storage and they allow you to stay at a lounge after your check-out

Kidjie Singapore

The hotel is beautiful. The stairs, the artwork on the walls. The dining area is congenial, relaxed and has many little touches that helps to feel relaxed. The staff are very helpful and friendly.

Katrina Australia

Nice place. Very clean and fair priced with a classic look.

Jelle Netherlands

The breakfast was just like home I needed yog and a bit of extra fruit. The location could not have been bettered. It was very handy to the South Yarra Train/tram. Many restaurants. For a solo 65plus female a very safe area and lodgings

Ann New Zealand

Location was great. Close to the train and tram stations, and South Yarra is a cool neighborhood. The bathrooms were also very clean.

Ellen United States of America

Breakfast attention from Julia was flawless, very receptive to my girlfriends gluten and lactose issues, and in general also as she is always active taking care of the breakfast supplies.
