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.

Love Rosehill Gardens. Went to see my horse race for the first time. Parking at the front entrance, owners tickets right at the entrance. Viewing was easy. Had a great day.

The entrance fee was $35 per person which was not cheap. You walked from the other side of the track to enter. It was kind of strange.
When you appeared on the stand finally, you couldn't reach the outside ground near the finishing line. I thought that was another ticket to purchase......
I would never know what happened.
There weren't that many people on the first day of carnival.
The race card were quite good on that Sat.
But after I have been to Qld, Vic, SA and WA metropolitan racetracks, I don't think Rosehill was in my top 3 choices....

As a member, the facilities are great. However, on a carnival day like the Golden Slipper the bar service was dreadful. They were understaffed. The average wait for a beer was well over 15 minutes. The lines for food in the members were also ridiculous.

I had my university graduation here yesterday and had to arrange a wheelchair for my grandmother. The staff were amazing and incredibly organized. Everything ran smoothly without any issues, which made it very convenient and stress-free for my grandmother. The lovely staff made the day so much easier.

We loved the gardens and the presentation of the place. Were not there for races but for an event. Staff very good. Security could be a bit friendly though

Went to the Hive for a Christmas party. We could get drinks for a few people to start. Then only two per person, then one per person making long queues. When the event was drawing to an end the stairwells were locked and we were forced to wait for elevators. Because we were on the top floor the elevators were full until the lower floors were cleared making it a long wait to leave. Mentioned it wasn’t legal to lock the pedestrian exits and they wouldn’t budge.
Great food with great friends. Wouldn’t go back though.

We attended the caravan camping Supershow which was well organised with many exhibitions. A fantastic place to see them all in one place
