Liked: Cleanliness
Disliked: Amenities
The room was very large with a large window overlooking a small park.
It was very clean and the bed, bedding and towels were of high quality.
The hair dryer was missing and the television was not working.
The shower is over the bath which may be difficult for some.

Great position reasonable rates.
Building showing its age which is understandable
But very good experience
Dated, tired, run down accommodation. Dull and lifeless. Tap fell off in the shower, dirty, broken spa, bedside lamp not working and capped off (in built in wall). Squeaky bed and a good gap under the door allowing light and noise from the hallway.

Disliked: Property conditions & facilities
Reasonably priced, staff are very friendly - property is tired and basic. My only comment and disappointment was my room was not serviced.
My son had to attend the RMH for day surgery.
The Mercure North Melbourne was in convenient walking distance and was within our budget.
The property our room and the staff were excellent.
Thank You Mercure North Melbourne !
All the staff were friendly and professional, always happy to help with any little thing. Very convenient location for access to lots of stuff around Melbourne, Vic Market, Lygon St eateries, Museum. Facilities a touch dated but all clean and functional. Would definitely return

Comfortable stay at Mercure North Melbourne
I enjoyed my recent 3-night stay at Mercure North Melbourne. The hotel is very conveniently located across the road from the major hospitals and within easy walking distance to the 58/59 tramline.
The staff were all friendly and helpful and the room, although a bit worn, was cleaned to a high standard with all the usual amenities available. The in-room wifi worked well.
A comfortable stay and I would look at staying here again if needing to return to North melbourne for work.
Very helpful staff and convenient location.
What I did not like was the low level of lighting in the room but the staff did bring in another lamp at my request.
