Charles RAHIM loved the Clarion Apartments in South Yarra. I think the management was Chinese and the level of service was efficient, prompt, easy going and professional all at the sane time. Check in took me less than two minutes and it was done with a smile from the owners or manager im not sure but I was impressed. Its great to see great custoner service from a serviced apartment that is managed by well choosen staff. This will be where I will be staying from now on. The price was less than other places too.

The fridge didn't work so a bar fridge was provided. But no communication that it wasn't working and there was a random bar fridge in the living room. There was no initial dishwashing tablet provided to get you started. The room was really nice but just attention to detail would have been better. But it was clean.

Reception staff were lovely and had to work with challenging circumstances. Maintenance very much needed on the rooms - everything from no hot water for a night, lights not working, hair dryer not working, door not closing properly, unable to find clean blankets, terrible smell in reception ….. list goes on…..the place itself could be fine- just needs maintenance to keep it working help the staff to have the tools they need.

We stayed there for 3 nights and everyone was super nice. It is right next to Albert Park and close enough to the city to go with the trams. Room was clean, and the shower has been the best one I’ve had in years!

Great customer service but poor cleanliness

We had to ask a room change before we even put our bags done. Our room had a terrible smell(could’ve been a bad air freshener or someone had just relieved themselves before our arrival) There seems to be a bad smell/stench present in the hallway and lobby.probably poor ventilation or air conditioning. The staff were great.

This property is well located to transport and all the city offers. There are some great restaurants within walking distance along with south melb market a short trip. The hotel was clean, lovely balconies and were able to provide for a group booking of 5 rooms. We only stayed one night but I wouldn't hesitate to stay for an extended period. Service was great too. Not one issue. Thank you for a lovely stay 4 stars..

Room was fine, clean and quiet but all areas of the accommodation smelt bad, like old damp rubbish and there were some dodgy sorts hanging around the front entrance most times I came and went. Good location. Good Price

My visit was for work training purposes, and my apartment was a delight to come back to of an evening, as I could sit and look out my window towards the city and sunset, reflecting on my day. The Staff Manni, and Ryan were very welcoming and always helpful. I only had one opportunity to meet with Kayla on the last day of my stay (as Kayla was my first phone contact) and found her extremely accommodating. Thank you to all the staff at Clarion Apartments South Melbourne for making my first trip to Melbourne a memorable and pleasant stay.
