The Mercure Canberra was a wonderful place to stay. Its location is super convenient, providing easy to access all places of note. The rooms are well presented and extremely clean. The facilities are very good and the dining options were great.

The area I stayed in was quite old. Carpet shabby but the room was clean. Not all toiletries were filled eg: body wash empty. But all good as I always carry my own.

We stayed in a loft room with a king size bed with a full bathroom. Absolutely loved our room, so cozy. We will be back again.

We thought that the bistro would be of a higher standard. Had to go to the city to eat which meant two taxi fares.

Should not charge $15 a day for parking
We are already paying enough for the room and we where patronising the establishment through drinks and dining in restaurant bar area
Above is only saying it the way it is
The line has to be drawn on on being fair to those who choose to stay there $15 a day ain’t going to make a big difference to the establishment’s profit margins but obviously by my comments and another couple that spent the 3 nights there with us all agreed that it shouldn’t be an extra charge
