I've been going to North Hill Mall for over 27 years - way back when the bowling alley was there and the worst Zellers in the city. I was there the other day, parking where I always park whether I'm going to Telus or Safeway. I was there for not even a half hour and came out to find a parking ticket! What?? Imagine my surprise when after all these years, I now have to pay to shop at Safeway. ... more
I love North Hill Mall as a local. It's a mall designed for one stop shopping for the family. It has Safeway, Shoppers, Winners, Pet Valu, EB Games, Source, World Health and my favourite Angles Hair and Aethetics. It took me three years to find a stylist I just felt good with and Saad at Angles has the years of experience to cut, colour and style in an awesome time frame while making sure... more
i am 64 years old and disabled .. seucurity banned me for 2 years cause one of them is dating an old girl friend i kicked out 3 years ago where does this power come from ?
If I could give it zero star I would. I went there two days before Christmas and parked in the northeast end of the parking lot, facing 16 Ave. I came out after shopping only to find a $65-parking notice, left by WestPark for parking in their lot. It's a freaking shopping centre, they wanted shoppers to pay to park there? There was no signs on that side of the parking lot that indicated it... more
I was there for a half an hour. Spent ~$ 200 and got a $ 65 parking ticket. It seems that this is their main source of income. I have never seen such a thing in Calgary. Is there any out of downtown shopping mall in Calgary that they charge for Parking?

I do so hope that their higher ups acknowledge how great these people are........North Hill Shoppers have such a Great Professional... more
Beware of getting ticketed on the Sears side if you miss the signs that tell you to pay for parking. $65 rip-off. Who thought of making customers pay for parking at a mall?
I have never been a mall in Calgary you need to register your parking before you enter. The Indigo parking company is justing robbing people. Many people like me are not familiar with the parking rule in this place and got a $65 ticket. Even you just shopped there and only stop by for half hour. The parking staff was very rude and will use coarse language towards people. I was watching him when... more
A BIG HEADS UP shoppers will now have to pay for the pleasure of shopping at this mall. It's bad enough that they have c@!%!y stores, now they want you to pay for those c@!%!y stores. If you don't pay, it is a $65 ticket. Take my advise, go to a different mall.
The new register your car parking system on the Sears side is almost designed to be a scam. If you enter the at the sears/mall joint entry there are no parking terminals. I spent 10min looking for one inside and returned to my car. There was already an $85 ticket. Ridiculous. Avoid Sears at all costs. For the record if you call the mall will tell you the parking area is owned by Sears and Sears... more
Just finished a nasty call with Indigo parking thugs about the extortionist parking ticket given to me on a busy Christmas week-end. I was parked in front of Chili went to Marks to pick up ice tread boots. I am temporarily handicap, due to a recent medial collateral ligament tear in my knee from slipping on the ice, it make it very terrible to walk in best conditions. I was in the mall 10... more
My mother and her sister went to Sears and were rewarded with a $60 ticket. Aside from the fact that they were parked in a handicapped parking spot, legitimately, they have been going to Sears since the early 60s and never noticed any signage. Last time they, or we, will ever go to North Hill Mall again.
If you're looking for the trendiest shops and tons of variety, this really isn't the place for you. However, if you have some extra time, or you live close by, this might be the place for you.
Some of the better stores are the vehicle registry, Shopper's Drug Mart, Purdy's, Safeway, Jugo Juice and Coles. There are also some eclectic finds like a store devoted to knives and a Canadian souvenir...

In the 1980s, North Hill Mall had ads on the radio that stated that while they weren't much, they were close. That was the tag line and in 30 years the sentiment remains true.
How is this mall still open?
The parking isn't ideal and after a few attempts found a spot. During the week, mid afternoon there should be plenty of parking. Had to kill a bit of time since I had an appointment near by so thought I would spend an hour here shopping.
The stores were a bit of a disappointment. Not allot of variety at all. Allot of stores are ones that I wouldn't normally even...

I bet you forgot this place even existed! Well look out Calgary, because it's here and it's... well... it's doing what it's always been doing, I guess. It's here, anyway.
Cool local businesses in here include Games People Play, I really quite like this place, (yelp.ca/biz/games-people…), there's a pretty fierce lookin' knife shop with a dude who has a sick mohawk. I think it helps counteract...

This mall is set up a bit weird, there are stores like Petcetera and Mark's Work Warehouse that you can't get to from within the main mall (you have to go outside).
Previously I've only gone into the Safeway and Petcetera, but I had to meet someone here and was surprised to see a huge food court (Koryo, Opa, Edo, etc) and scattered along the mall are some independent clothing stores along with...

For a mall that is right on the C Train line, I would have expected this mall to be more user friendly. This is partially because it isn't designed well. It's a big, long hallway essentially. Some stores cannot be accessed from the inside and the signage is confusing at best. Even maps of the mall are scarce.
The stores that inhabit the mall are nothing to write home about, with HMV, Shoppers...

I come here when I visit my dentist (Avenue 14 Dental Studio). The food court is okay, it even has a Korean BBQ place (Koryo). There's an EB Games, so not everything is just for seniors (unless they're gamers). I haven't been in the Sears in ages. As others noted, it's conveniently located along the C-train line and a lot of buses go through 14th Ave. If you live in the condo towers attached to... more
North Hill Centre is definitely one of those malls that gets little love, and there are reasons for it. Like others have pointed out, parking is terrible, and the retail businesses are really only notable for supplying the basics. The selection runs to geriatric in a lot of stores (it's not just the Sears, Moez!), and the whole thing is kind of shabby looking. This is not a mall to visit if... more
North Hill Mall has been around FOREVER and I hate to say it, but I'm pretty surprised.
I mean the location is definitely prime - SAIT and 16th Ave are right next door, and the train even stops right in front of the mall - but for a lot of the reasons that Moez T. mentioned, it's just not a popular mall.
It's one of the only malls in the city that has yet to be renovated. Plus the stores...

I lived a few minutes from this mall for over 3 years. And to be honest, I didn't know it existed until about a year after moving here. It's small, the stores are nothing fantastic, and the parking is a mess. Of course, the parking isn't really their fault. Despite attempts to stop it, many people park at the mall and catch the train across the street.
North Hill Centre has a lot of...

The parking situation at this mall is crazy. You can't even find a spot on a weekday afternoon. I know that's not their busy time, but they have to start cracking down on the people who park there to hop the train across the street downtown.
This mall isn't the finest in the city, but it does have everything you need from Safeway to an old out-dated Sears to a few other shops that are of...
