Our stay at the hotel was fantastic! We were in Melbourne for a special event and stayed at Clarion for three nights. The one-bedroom room was amazing, with a spacious layout, various pillow options, and a breathtaking view of the Yarra River. The friendly front desk staff made us feel welcome and accommodated all our needs. The hotel's location was ideal, with tram access right outside, and the indoor pool was perfect for families with kids. The kitchen in our room was a handy feature, and the daily room service was a nice touch.
Would be happy to recommend this hotel.

The river view from my room was absolutely stunning, especially at night. It was a treat to watch the New Year fireworks over the Yarra River from the comfort of my veranda. The indoor pool was perfect for families with kids, offering a fun and safe space to relax and play. The kitchen in my room was quite handy, allowing me to prepare meals whenever I wanted. Additionally, I appreciated the regular room service that kept everything clean and tidy.
While my stay at Clarion Suites Gateway was overall excellent, there were a few minor drawbacks. The sofa bed in my room wasn't very comfortable, so I had to add extra layers to make it softer and less "springy.

I had a fantastic stay at this hotel. The location was superb, overlooking the river, and it was easy to get to transport and everything around the city. The hotel facilities were great, with a heated indoor swimming pool and a small kitchenette in the room. The staff were friendly and welcoming, and the room was very clean with plenty of tea and coffee. The parking on site was a bonus, making it convenient for me to explore the city.
It was all superb.

Great location, close to Flinders Lane restaurants and Crown Casino. Spacious room with a beautiful view of Southgate. Pool heated for winter use. Helpful staff and personal greetings for repeat guests. Good amenities including outlets for electronics, big bathroom with hot water, and roomy fridge and microwave. Convenient tram stops nearby.
Felt well-taken care of, staff went above and beyond to accommodate.

The location of this hotel is incredible. It is right across the river from South Bank, so you have easy access to all the main shops and cafes. Plus, it is within walking distance to many attractions and the train lines, which is amazing considering the cost per night. On top of that, the rooms are spacious and clean, with comfortable beds and stunning views of the Yarra River.
The bathroom shower doesn't have proper doors, causing water to pool on the floor.

We had a fantastic stay at this place! The location was perfect, right on the river bank in a great area and just near the station. The staff provided on point service, from check-in to check-out, despite 24 hour service.

I had a great stay at this venue! The location is perfect, as it is within the free tram grid and just near the station. Also, this hotel's strong customer service is on point with the service, from check-in to check-out. Plus, the rooms are well-equipped with excellent amenities like the mini-bar, ironing facilities, and free Wi-Fi.
I recommend this hotel to families as it provides perfect accommodation for them.

The location of the hotel was fantastic, with easy access to public transport and attractions along the Yarra River. If you were lucky enough to get a room with a window facing the Crown, the view would be spectacular. Additionally, it was just a short walk across to Southbank, offering plenty of dining and entertainment options. The staff were extremely helpful and welcoming, providing little extras and upgrading rooms to enhance the overall experience.
One downside was the proximity to a noisy train line, which could potentially disturb guests throughout the day and night.

During my recent stay at the hotel, I was delighted to experience the most amazing views from my room. The floor to ceiling windows overlooked the river and Southgate, allowing me to enjoy the beautiful scenery. The location of the hotel was also superb, with easy access to train stations, trams, and various attractions in the city. The bed and pillows were incredibly comfortable, ensuring a restful night's sleep. Additionally, the hotel provided excellent heating, keeping me warm and cozy throughout my stay. The staff at the front desk were helpful and professional, providing swift service whenever I needed something. The cleanliness of the room was also up to standard, making me feel comfortable and at ease. I had a great experience at the hotel and would definitely recommend it to others.
Although there were many positive aspects of my stay, there were a couple of minor drawbacks. The sofa bed in my room was not very comfortable, and the overall condition of the room felt a bit "tired.

The staff at this hotel were very friendly and helpful, always willing to assist with any requests. The room itself was quite spacious and comfortable, providing a relaxing environment after a long day of business meetings. Additionally, the location of the hotel was extremely convenient, with easy access to the city center and a variety of dining options nearby.
the room service offered by the hotel was quite expensive, making it less desirable to order meals or snacks. Secondly, the sliding door to the balcony was very stiff and came off its rails multiple times during my stay, causing inconvenience and frustration.

Great location! Just a short walk to shops, restaurants, and tram stops. Also, close to the Yarra River and other attractions. The staff were very friendly and helpful. They made us feel welcome and assisted us with any requests we had. The rooms were spacious and clean, with comfortable beds. We also appreciated the modern design of the apartments. Another advantage was the availability of kitchenware and toiletries in the room.
There were a few maintenance issues throughout the hotel that could be improved. The sofa bed mattress was lumpy and in need of replacing.
