Nice hotel and good service with friendly staff. Despite the reconstruction of the building on the street side, I had a good stay. A second towel in the bathroom would have been nice. I only had one whcih was not the largest in size.

Good 4* hotel, however until March 2014 under heavy construction. Consider that construction starts as early as 7 am. All the rooms are in a separate building for the moment, all services are currently at minimum level. It will again be a great place after the re-opening. For the moment no restaurant, small elevator to get to the lobby. Mini... More

I selected this hotel because I am familiar with the brand. Based on my experience in other Mercure hotels (such as Koblenz, Germany) I expected an acceptable quality and service level for a moderate price. A more simple version would be Ibis (e.g. Amsterdam or Zürich), and a more “upscale” version would be Novotel (e.g. Karlsruhe). Still, my overall experience... More

The hotel is currently being revamped - from what I read from previous guests, it was badly needed. The restaurant is not yet in operation. Breakfast was average. The room was large and well equipped. During the three days of our stay, the air conditionning did not work in that room which had only a small window meant to be... More

I stayed here back in October, and left feeling deeply uninspired... It's boring, it's cold, it's dated! The staff were however really friendly and helpful. Location wise I wasn't disappointed as its a very short walk into the centre of town, although its in a pretty ugly street.. Back in August I stayed at the swissotel which I loved, but... More
