Parkville Place Serviced Apartments

We drove from WA to Melbourne for 8 days and we've stayed at several hotel and accommodations. Parkville was the last accommodation we stayed in before we found a permanent place to stay here in Melbourne. Parkville was the most affordable one and the closest to my husband's workplace. I must say this has become home to me for 7days. I have read some not good reviews but we still chose to stay there because it is good value for money and I never regret it. This has become my favourite place. The room, Yes it is clean and we have all that we need. Complete with stove and cookware. The room, the sheets and pillows are clean and smell clean. And the most important, the staff is very very friendly and nice! If you ring them, they answer straight away. They give you all that you need. I love them all. They are very nice people. There is nothing to complain about. It is not a five-star hote but a serviced apartment so do not expect a five-star hotel facility but it is a nice place to stay away from home close to CBD, walking distance to shops and restaurants. Has coin-operated laundry, has flatiron and toiletries. They offer cleaning daily on weekdays but you would not need cleaning daily.The two guys at the reception, they are very nice and helpful. They do reception work and they are the ones doing the cleaning too so be patient when you arrive and they are not at the reception but with just one ring, they will answer and come. And a big bonus is free parking! THE BEST FOR US!

Not overly flash, you get what you pay for, but the room was clean and stsff were friendly. Its in a convenient location

This was the perfectly located place to stay. I would re-book when I next come to Melbourne. Royal Park and Melbourne Zoo are within walking distance. It’s a seven minute walk to two tram routes that take you into the CBD, one of which will take you to the beach at St Kilda. There are lots of restaurants and bars close by too - we ate lovely meals on Lygon and Sydney Streets. We received a wonderful welcome to Parkville Place. T was absolutely the best: he was very friendly, helpful and informative. The owner was equally friendly and helpful. As for the room it had all one needed for a short to medium term stay. The bed was very comfortable, a recently renovated bathroom, kitchen facilities: kettle, toaster, microwave, fridge. We also had a small shaded courtyard. Although the corridor to our room looked a bit tired, improvements are in hand.

Cheap but the bed smelt really bad and there wasn’t any housekeeping like thought.

Staff were terrific and very helpful. Room could be a bit cleaner. Ground floor room was very noisy.
