Very clean guesthouse. Toilets and shower are located at the end of the hallway and the rooms are quite small but there is free wifi, tv and the guesthouse is located close to a long shopping street and close to trams/train. Breakfast was very simple but adequate. Stayed 2 nights and will go back again next time we are in... More

My Backpacking days have passed, but am still budget conscious and also looking for a safe and comfortable place to stay. Claremont was a good place to stay in South Yarra. The location is excellent - tram stop outside and also the train station minutes away . Train into the city run every 5 minutes or so and take around... More

I stayed there for about ten nights as my friend and I just moved to Melbourne and needed to stay here until we each find somewhere to live in. If you're looking for somewhere cheap to stay, then this will be the right hostel for you. However if you're not traveling alone, and if you are in need to go... More

Toilets and bathroom disgusting not cleaned regularly, some so bad you can not possibly use. Wi-Fi terrible!! not free in room.. Noisy.. Impossible to park vehicle with out paying ridiculous amounts of money.. kitchen very very basic... and to top it all off we were sitting down to eat in the "GUEST" area and were asked to vacate the area...

There was free tea/coffee and water available 24/7, free wifi - however a little difficult to access during peak times, breakfast was included - a... More

Positive things: Good location, friendly staff, clean floor, clean toilets, free wifi, breakfast, 24 hours tea, coffee and filtred water. Negative things: No lift, small room. Ask for a quiet room, not on Toorak road!

I stayed here during the Grand Prix, for which it was ideally located (10 minutes walk from Albert park). The rooms are as basic as you can get and very small but perfectly suitable for the price. Bathrooms were nice and clean. Staff were very friendly and we got 500mb of free wifi during our stay. Didn't make it to... More

As this was my first 2 nights in Australia I've chosen private room to fight with jet lag alone - so this might affect my rating. This and the fact that it was about 30 degrees Celsius during those nights. And as the room is pretty small with a fan constantly going (better a fan, than nothing) - it was... More

For the price, and being used to hostel living, the Claremont guest house was an OK place to stay. The rooms are basic but fairly clean and you get a tv in the private rooms (you may in the dorms too but we only stayed in a private). Try and get a room at the back of the building as... More
