    “Had late night emergency booking, meant to be for 1 night, staff were amazing and very accomodating the whole time even after extending our stay twice and having to rearrange things. This is not my first stay here and definitely won’t be my last! Even learnt they had laundry facility that came in very handy considering our 1 night turned to 3 nights unplanned. The standard queen is a small room but was not less clean and certainly still comfortable. The king rooms is definitely a preferred room for comfort/room, still love the little balconettes and ability to let air into room and more accessible if you need to avoid stairs.”

    “Deluxe loft is our favourite. Plenty of space to move around. Dining table is big enough for a family of 4. Beds are comfy. Toilet/bathroom always clean. This is the nth time we are staying. Location is excellent, too.”

  • Will be back as long as I get same room.

    “The hotel is a lovely old place. We were unfortunate and ended up with a leaking shower screen. The water on the floor was dangerous and a lovely staff member got us another towel and some bath mats to put on the floor. The Mercure is in a perfect spot close to the War Memorial and all the tourist spots.”

  • Good clean and very handy if visiting the AWM
