Room was spacious, chairs comfortable, as was the bed. Breakfast choice in restaurant was very good. Staff very pleasant. Have stayed here many times through the years and have now put it as my priority place to stay.

My family have stayed at the Mercure many times because of location and easy parking. This stay however being July and very cold we found the room extremely cold throughout the evening and night. We requested more blankets which were delivered as the beds only had very light bedding on them. The split system is too small for the size room I think. The fridge plug wasn’t pushed all the way in and therefore the fridge wasn’t on when we arrived. The fridge makes an annoying power sound when it kicks in all the time. The water pressure in the shower is great but my 9 year old was nearly scolded by the change in the hot water temperature and jumped out into the freezing bathroom. The courtyard rooms really lack that cosy aspect and are very cold. Only 1 face washer for three people and 1 extra fleece blanket in cupboard ( which we used) Overall I’m very dissatisfied with this stay.
