The property is located in a residential area; so, it's very quiet, but not exactly walking distance to town center. That said, it's a short walk to bus stop, or simply get a taxi, which will be a short ride. Very attentive staff will make you feel at home.

Room was nice and clean but due to being put in the older building down the back the room was smaller than expected given we paid for a privilege room. The room did still have the other perks but I found the pictures on Expedia to be a little misleading if they consider this room to be part of the tier.

Lovely hotel. We paid a little extra for a larger room with king size bed and were delighted with it. Staff friendly and location excellent for getting in and out of the city centre.

Our two day stay for our daughter’s wedding has been as close to perfection as we could possibly get… the staff at this lovely hotel are beyond excellent, two members of staff in particular shone… John on reception as well as many other duties and JASMINE who truly helped to make our weekend so memorable, Jasmine is a star, in my humble opinion, the heart of this hotel. I would be proud to have her as my daughter. The food was of Michelin standard presented by high quality staff with dignity and professionalism of the highest order. Our wedding experience was amazing and we would recommend this hotel to anyone who may be looking for a venue for their own wedding. Thank you for looking after my daughter and new son in law. Grandpa Chris.

Complicated heating system which didn't seem to be working. Cold in the lounge and bar areas. Working fire was not working. Lack of disabled parking.

Our stay at the Mercure was overall very positive. We travelled from north devon to visit a family member at the Churchill hospital. We arrived at 1pm on Sunday and didnt expect to check in, but asked in the bar if we could have a quick sandwich before driving to the hospital. we were told that we could only have a roast dinner or chips. When asked, staff were told by chef that this was not possible. This was not a good first impression. Apart from this everything was excellent and all staff were polite, helpful and went out of their way to make our stay enjoyable.
