Today I called the hotel with an enquiry, and was helped by Kitty (I think). She was very lovely, so professional and very knowledgeable about restaurants in the area. Looking forward to my stay at AC Marriott!

Very disappointed with my stay. The room service team was extremely difficult to reach, as my calls went unanswered multiple times. When I finally got through, I was told they were very busy and only one person was at reception, which does not justify the lack of response. Additionally, the room did not meet expectations. I had booked a premium room, but it looked nothing like the photos or description provided. Overall, the service and room quality were below standard, and the experience was disappointing.

This has been my fourth stay at AC Hotel by Marriott Melbourne, and every visit has been nothing short of amazing. From the exceptional customer service and beautifully presented rooms to the stunning city views and fantastic food, every aspect of my stay has been outstanding. It's the consistently high standard that keeps me coming back. One person who truly stood out during my most recent stay was Harry at check-in. His customer service was phenomenal. Even though the hotel was very busy at the time, he remained calm, patient, and professional throughout the entire process. I am quite particular and tend to ask a lot of questions and request changes, but Harry handled everything with genuine kindness and never made me feel like I was being a bother. He made the entire check-in process smooth and stress-free, and I am very grateful for the excellent service he provided. Thank you to the entire team for another wonderful stay. I look forward to returning again soon!

I had an amazing stay at the AC hotel in southbank. I urgently needed a hotel that accepted dogs after my apartment building was evacuated due to power problems, and AC Hotel were the only dog friendly hotel with availability. The staff went above and beyond to help out. I received a free upgrade to my room type, they provided a pet bed for the room, a late check out and everytime I saw a staff member they asked if there was anything I needed. The room was good quality for a 4* hotel, with an ample amount of storage, and a comfortable bed
