CitiClub Hotel is a boutique hotel in Melbourne’s central business district offering modern rooms and suites, on-site restaurant and bars, conference facilities, and a nightclub.
CitiClub Hotel is a boutique hotel located in Melbourne’s central business district, close to offices, shopping, and major attractions. The property offers modern rooms and suites aimed at both business and leisure travellers, along with on-site dining, bars, conference and event spaces, and an attached or associated nightclub venue. Guests commonly book directly via citiclubhotel.com.au, as well as through third‑party platforms such as online travel agencies and corporate travel portals.
A CitiClub Hotel charge may appear on your bank or card statement for a variety of reasons: a room booking (including advance purchase rates), incidentals such as minibar, parking, late check‑out or room service, bar or nightclub tabs, or conference/event bookings. You may also see temporary pre‑authorization holds taken at check‑in or when you open a room charge account at the bar; these holds are used to verify your card and are usually released after your final bill is settled. If you booked through an external site, the charge may still show as “CitiClub Hotel” or a similar descriptor even if you paid in advance, and dates on the charge may differ slightly from your actual stay dates due to processing times.
If you’re unsure about a CitiClub Hotel charge, start by checking your email for booking confirmations, bar or event receipts, and any invoices from the hotel or your travel agent. Compare the amount and date with any recent or past stays in Melbourne, as well as any nightlife or events you attended at the venue. To resolve questions, contact the hotel using the details on citiclubhotel.com.au (usually via phone or a contact form) and have your full name, stay dates, and the last four digits of the card ready; the front desk or accounts team can look up your folio, explain room and incidental charges, adjust errors, and advise on refunds or the release of any pending holds.

Why do I see a CitiClub Hotel charge when I don’t remember staying there?
CitiClub Hotel operates in Melbourne’s CBD and also has bars, a nightclub and function spaces, so you may see a charge even if you didn’t stay overnight. The charge could relate to a bar or nightclub tab, entry or event ticket, a conference or function payment, or a room booked on your behalf by an employer or travel organiser. Review your recent social events, work functions, or corporate travel to see if CitiClub Hotel was the venue, and check with colleagues or friends who may have used your card with your permission (for example, to secure a tab or booking).
What typical amounts might I see from CitiClub Hotel on my statement?
Typical CitiClub Hotel charges can include room rates (commonly in the range of approximately AUD $150–$350 per night depending on room type and dates), bar or nightclub spends (often smaller, variable amounts for food and drinks), and conference or event charges that may be higher lump sums. You may also see round figures such as $50, $100, or $200 as a pre‑authorization hold or security bond at check‑in, which is separate from the final amount actually billed. Exact amounts will depend on your booking type, number of nights, and any extras or incidentals during your stay or visit.
Why is there a pending or temporary CitiClub Hotel charge on my card?
Hotels commonly place a temporary pre‑authorization hold on your card at check‑in or when you open a room‑charge account at the bar to cover incidentals and security. CitiClub Hotel may hold an amount higher than your room rate to allow for minibar, room service, or bar charges during your stay. This pending amount is usually released by the hotel at or shortly after check‑out, but your bank can take several business days to remove it; you will only be finally charged for the actual total of your bill. If a hold hasn’t dropped off after a week, contact both your bank and the hotel for an update.
Why was I charged by CitiClub Hotel after I checked out?
Additional charges after check‑out usually relate to items posted to your account late, such as minibar usage, room damage, late check‑out fees, or bar and restaurant transactions that were closed after your departure. Occasionally, adjustments are made if an earlier pre‑authorization didn’t fully cover your final bill, prompting a separate charge for the balance. Check your final folio or invoice (often emailed on or after check‑out) and then contact the hotel’s reception or accounts department via citiclubhotel.com.au if you need a detailed breakdown or dispute an item.
How can I get a copy of my CitiClub Hotel invoice or receipt?
If you booked directly, CitiClub Hotel typically emails an invoice or folio to the address provided at check‑in or during booking. For stays or events booked via an online travel agency or corporate travel service, your receipt may be available in that platform’s booking details. If you can’t find your documents, use the contact details on citiclubhotel.com.au and provide your full name, stay or event dates, and booking reference (if available); the hotel can usually resend your invoice or provide a detailed statement of charges.
How do I dispute a CitiClub Hotel charge or request a refund?
Contact CitiClub Hotel directly before initiating a chargeback with your bank, as many billing issues can be resolved quickly by their front desk or accounts team. Provide a screenshot or description of the charge, the last four digits of your card, and any booking or event references so they can locate the transaction. If they determine an error (for example, a duplicated charge or incorrect posting), they can process a refund or adjustment; keep in mind that refunds may take several business days to appear, depending on your card issuer. If you booked via a third‑party site, some cancellations and refunds must be handled through that provider’s policies.
Why was I charged by CitiClub Hotel when I booked through another website?
Even when you book through an online travel agency or deal site, the payment may be processed directly by CitiClub Hotel depending on the rate type and agreement with the third party. In other cases, the site may store your card and instruct the hotel to charge it at check‑in or at the specified prepayment date, so the descriptor on your statement still appears as CitiClub Hotel. Check your booking confirmation to see who is listed as the merchant of record and which cancellation and payment terms apply. If it’s unclear, you can contact both the booking site and the hotel with your confirmation number for clarification.
How can I contact CitiClub Hotel about a charge on my statement?
Visit citiclubhotel.com.au and go to the Contact or Hotel Information section to find the current phone number and online enquiry options for reception or reservations. When you call or write, have your full name, approximate date and amount of the charge, and any booking or event details ready so they can quickly locate your record. For corporate or group bookings, you may also need to speak with their events or accounts team, whose details are typically listed on the same contact page.
