I stayed at Princes Park Motor Inn from 18th to 24th April 6 nights. Check in was easy, quick, and the apartment I booked was a superior studio apartment of which I was advised had been fully renovated about 8 months ago. The rate was $165 AUD a night. Princes Park is at the far end of town, on the... More

This hotel was great. The room was much bigger than I expected and even had a little balcony overlooking the park. It is not far from the city centre, has a tram stop right out the front, train station walking distance nearby and a 7/11 down the street. Plenty of parking beneath the building. The only issue was the AC... More

Planning our trip to Australia we decided to spend the last two nights in Melbourne but stupidly decided leaving the hotel booking til we were already over there, not realising it was the Easter break and all the city centre family rooms were then fully booked up. We managed to book exactly what we wanted in Princes Park. Arriving it... More

Previous visits to Melbourne always see me staying in the city centre hotels. This time round, however, coming with a big group of 10 people, I decided to stay in a more economical place. Princes park was chosen as it fitted my budget bill and has the added advantage of being near to the city centre. Coming to Melbourne in... More

Had this review been written on the first night of our stay it would have had a series of black marks against it. The room we were given (229) was tired and in need of refurbishment. It had a background smell of cigarettes. We were so tired after our flight that we could not find the energy to complain. Next... More

With regards to directions, if our staff don't know where a destination is, we google it for our guests without fail. Perhaps there was some mis-communication between your relative and the staff member. We strive to give our guests excellent customer service and aim to please. Unfortunately we do not have rooms that cater to special needs guests. We do... More

Conveniently placed with easy access to the motorway and a tram stop outside which takes you directly to the centre of Melbourne. Rooms spacious and newly renovated. A respectable breakfast at standard rate. Though it is on the corner of an intersection, noise was no bother. Free "do it yourself" laundry and ample free car parking spaces. A Seven Eleven... More

We've now stayed in one of their apartment rooms on many visits to Melbourne. These apartment rooms are spacious and have all you need to be self-sufficient.
