Incredibly disappointing experience given prior reviews, stars of the hotel, and the competition in the area. I expected much better.
As a warning - do NOT book a standard room unless this is facing the water for the upcoming months. There is extensive building works taking place behind the Mercure, which you are only notified via a notice once you are in your room. The jack hammering started at 6.50am and was unbearable. Fortunately we were able to move rooms but I would have been asking for my money back without this.
Secondly, we arrived at 2pm and were told our room wasn’t yet ready but we would be texted whenever it was. At 3.45pm we still hadn’t been contacted and went back to the hotel and after some confusion our room was then ready and we were able to check in. Again, not a 4* experience.
The rooftop area is okay, but doesn’t live up to the pictures. We were not told at check in that we were entitled to a welcome drink at the pool, and so paid for everything we had. Again - disappointing this wasn’t mentioned.
Overall just a completely average experience. Would absolutely not recommend given the other major hotel chains in the area. Rooms should be throughly discounted given the building works.
