Family-Friendly Convenience and Comfort at Mercure
We have stayed at the Mercure Hotel a couple of times, and it never disappoints. Its location, right next to Central Station and Railway Square, makes commuting with kids incredibly convenient. Whenever possible, they’ve accommodated our requests for early check-in, which helps us relax and feel well taken care of. The extra-comfy beds and the breakfast buffet with its wide variety of options ensure that everyone in our family is happy and satisfied.

It's all about the location
It's all about the location, proximity to central station, bus stop etc. Not a great area to stay and not a great hotel to stay in. Pillow was flat as a pancake and only one each. One face washer in room. I would only stay there again if I needed to be near the station.

It was nice
good location, clean room, comfortable beds. We opted to include breakfast, which ended up paying a little extra but it was worth it. We also used the laundry room downstairs, A$4 to wash and another A$4 to dry, had to get changes from the front desk. All is good. One complaint is the elevators are very slow during rush hours. I wish there're more stairs, at least for the first few floors.

Comfortable room in good location
A very convenient location with comfortable beds and a room in good condition. The only downside was the noise in room from various pumps and big air conditioning systems turning on and off . The front reception staff were helpful with check in.

Good electricals
Usually, I travel with a small powerboard. I did not need it at this hotel as there were plenty of power points in sensible places, and there were usb ports near the beds for the charging of phones. The beside lights were bright enough to read by easily and could be directed so that one person could read while the other slept. Water did escape from the shower (no door on shower).
