Hotel Mercure went the extra mile to accommodate our need for a ground floor room for our disabled dog. All communications were prompt and courteous, and when we checked on the staff couldn’t have been more friendly and helpful. This all helped ease the issues of travelling with a beloved disabled pet and we really appreciated all they did for us. Would definitely recommend them, and definitely stay there again should we return to Chester.

Overall we enjoyed our stay and staff were on the whole polite and welcoming but I felt there was a bit of a lack of consistency in what the staff informed us about. It was also a bit hit and miss if you got room refreshments restocked each day. Cleanliness was good and pool area was lovely.

The staff where lovely and helpful. The hotel was a bit grotty, the back of the toilet seat was dirty, hair on the shower curtain, that sort of thing. Our room had an adjoining door to the next room, it sounded like they where in the room with us, no soundproofing. The food was ok, but the order was wrong. I didn't use the pool because I was put off by the overall state of the place. It needs a really good deep clean. It was not worth the cost.

Worst bed ever!

First the positives - nice easy check, pleasant gentleman at reception, birthday package was purchased in advance and was lovely. Now the not so positives - The room was tired looking and in need of updating. No a/c and it was really hot. Windows open but as it’s on a main road it’s very noisy to sleep with them open. Absolutely no soundproofing in the room and we could hear the conversations and movement of people upstairs and outside the room. The most uncomfortable, rock hard bed I’ve ever been on! We couldn’t sleep due to noise and temperature and the rock hard bed made it impossible to even try. Really disappointed and absolutely shattered from no sleep. Thankfully we only booked 1 night and have just checked into a much nicer hotel. I wish I read the reviews before I booked!!

Pas convaincu

La chambre était étroite et je n'ai pas trouvé qu'elle était propre mis à part le lit. Les murs sont fins comme du papier et j'ai entendu les personnes de la chambre à côté rentrer dans leur chambre et s'installer tout ça vers 11PM. La salle de bain est vraiment petite et idem question propreté ce n'était pas ça. Je n'y retournerai pas
