Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

What travellers are saying
- ChizzamericaSouth Island, New Zealand769 contributionsWorth a look/visit, just for the views - especially at sunset. Stunning. Although we did find it a little too busy & hectic given the space, no really somewhere you can chillax etc. Perhaps that’s the point…Written 3 December 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Flyer42040471994Gurugram (Gurgaon), India5 contributionsWatching cricket at MCG was one of the most thrilling experiences ever! I went with my partner, and we were both in awe of the stadium and the game. The energy from the crowd made it all the more exciting. Thanks to FanToPark, everything was taken care of – from tickets to transport. All we had to do was enjoy the match!Written 24 November 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
- Rae103 contributionsBeautiful way to remember the sacrifices of so many men and women, and animals who went to war. Mules to carry the wounded, and dogs to carry messages, and people who gave so much. Pretty grounds. Took the bus so easy to get there and back. Worth the trip.Written 12 October 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.

- TheLeongOhanaUnited States7,575 contributionsThis was one of two cathedrals we visited in Melbourne. The Albert St tram stop was right in front.

- smiler1956Birmingham, UK613 contributionsToured the street with my wife, as part of a side street tour from my guide book. This street is part of a U-shaped walk depicting modern street art on the walls of the buildings and backs of restaurants. The huge murals are very impressive, although it is a shame that some vandals have defaced the art with simple "tags".Written 15 March 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

Boasting a large mall and the iconic block arcade with its beautiful tiled floor offers an eclectic array of shopping.

- Jeffry bEssendon, Australia13,682 contributionsIn the middle of the middle of the 18th century, a small town in Australia became the richest city in the world. The Great Australian Gold Rush brough enormous wealth and ambition. Marvelous Melbourne. The Gold Rush inspired the construction of St Paul's Anglican Cathedral. Today, St Paul's is both recognized as one of Australia's iconic buildings. The stunning interior has been created over centuries by a combination of worship and Christian philanthropy.Written 6 March 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Garry PMelbourne, Australia17 contributionsStunning 1880's architecture. The Royal Exhibition building held Australia's first federal parliament.
There are beautiful gardens in the surrounds, and it's a short walk to Melbourne Museum and the CBD.
