Overall, a great stay. The hotel isn’t pretty from the outside, but it makes up for it inside. I found the rooms to be more modern than other Mercure Hotels that I have stayed in. The breakfast was excellent. Plenty to choose from and fresh too. Great value for money and would definitely stay there again.

Good hotel. No issues during our stay. Hotel is a bit dated and tired from outside but lobby and rooms are quite nice. Car parks a little tricky to get into with narrow high entrance kerbs so watch your alloys! Nice area with good view of the river
