Find the Cheap Parkville Hotels

The rooms are small and the roadside sounds are loud during rush hours. The surroundings are very good!

We attended a concert at the Flemington racecourse. The tram stop, a 2-3 minute walk from the front door was very convenient for us to get there and back quickly. The hotel is in an interesting location being part of the Children's Hospital complex and the turn-off can be missed if you are not familiar (and even with instructions). The pre-arrival email was very handy in relation to parking and what to expect. Check-in was quick and once we returned in the evening we found it was quiet, even though it's on a busy main road. The room was cozy and the bed was comfy, we slept well. The bathroom had good amenities though I found it peculiar that the body wash/hand wash was beside the bathroom sink but there was not one in the shower, instead a body lotion was in there. We had a room on the Parkview side (not sure if this was upgraded or not) which was really nice to look at in the morning. The staff were friendly and helpful. If we have any further events out at Flemington we will be staying again!

Let's start with what is good about this business- * New carpets in the rooms/hallways * New furniture in reception * New beds/linen/TVs/lamps in the rooms * The location is unsurpassed- walking distance to the Women's hospital AND numerous parks, Brunswicks nightlife and shopping district * The carpark is generous * The staff are pleasant But then... what's bad? * No bins in the bathroom * Not enough power points in the rooms in convenient locations ( We all have to charge devices these days) * The pool looked lovely until you realise that in mid-Summer... it's not clean * Value is poor- I understand tennis is on in Melbourne so the motels are set at a premium... but really? Mid renovations and unfinished rooms... and they feel they can put the price up??That reflects badly on the management of this location because it's opportunistic in all the wrong ways. * Rooms are not maintained during your staff- beds were not made when we returned from our day out ... and then the ugly! * The water literally wasn't on in the morning... due to the lack of presence of hot water, we had learned to turn the taps on and let it run for a few minutes... but on the second morning here it literally stopped and no water came out for about five minutes. Thinking it was safe once the water returned, I showered, only for it to stop for about 20 seconds mid shower * Water for the shower runs hot and cold... literally mid-shower * Renovations are occurring like other reviewers have noted and there is clutter in the hallways It's not a motel that one would return to in a hurry, but if they manage to make good on their renovations and revitalise the outside areas ... it has potential to be something special.

Staff were lovely and very knowledgeable. Check in was a breeze. The buffet breakfast was lovely also with a great selection. Unfortunately the room was a huge letdown. Didn’t feel clean, and there was a large amount of mould in the bathroom area. Showers were very temperamental. Walls were thin - we were woken by our neighbours making a lot of noise. And could generally hear the conversations from next door. Lifts didn’t appear to be reliable- instead we opted for the stairs. Car parking was ok - and we secured one undercover. The gate to enter the larger outdoor carpark was interesting, sometimes it worked - others it didn’t - and I witnessed the boom gate hitting several cars. They did have a funny system where we needed to deposit a coin to exit the carpark (coin available from hotel reception). Felt very much like an old motel type accommodation. Probably the most least appealing Accor hotel we have stayed in.

We having wonderful experience during our 4 days stay in this apartment. The Apartment provided us almost everything we need from toiletries to comfortable bed and the staff Gorvett who show us around are very friendly and helpful to provided us information we need. The Apartment are well furnished and location are good and away from busy traffic but still nearby a tram stop that help us alot. There are restaurants, cafe and store nearby which is good for us also. We we definitely will come back again.

The Arden is a great value for money motel - being from country Vic having to stay in Melbourne for medical related purposes you are not usually in a position to be spending unnecessary money, the location is awesome & central, good ammenities of all kinds near by, I have stayed multiple times and have found the staff most helpful - don’t book expecting something your not paying the extra hundreds for - I have always found the rooms clean (1980’s styling, but I’m not looking for fancy - just convenience & comfort), you have secure parking and a reasonably quiet location, I’ll continue to book for my future needs!

Highly recommend this place for a couple. The apartment was a perfect size for 2 people and was clean, tidy and comfortable. The reception staff were very friendly and helpful. There are plenty of cafes etc within walking distance and the tram into the cbd is just around the corner. The carpark is very tight, had to be very careful not to scrape the walls. The paint marks on the walls shows how many people have struggled with this. Would definitely stay again.

This apartment is right next to the University of Mexico, and there is a section of Wei Ma, a sub-super, a local supermarket, etc., and shopping is extremely convenient. The main thing is that the room has an induction cooker, a microwave oven, and the apartment is also equipped with a variety of pots, including frying pans, three size cookers, three sets of dishes, cutlery, and stir-fry, etc., which is a few small rice bowls. Complete, I like it very much. If you want to cook for yourself, then the choice is really appropriate. The apartment room is very clean and tidy. Disadvantages, the room is small, only suitable for 1-2 people, remember.
