Guest Ratings & Reviews
The hotel room was spacious and air-conditioned, providing a comfortable stay despite lacking special arrangements for a birthday guest at first. However, the price could be seen as a bit high given the absence of air conditioning in one room.
The hotel's location is convenient for accessing the metro and offers plenty of stores and restaurants nearby. The rooms, although a bit cramped and noisy in the morning, provide a decent stay. The service was welcoming and helpful, making arrangements easy. The dining options were complete, with a variety of fresh choices. Overall, a good value for money stay in a well-located hotel for exploring Paris.
My stay at Mercure Hotel was a mix of highs and lows. The rooms were really smelly but had a balcony facing the vibrant streets of Porte d'Orleans, plus a handy mini-fridge. The service was very helpful with transport suggestions but a bit inconvenient for basic supplies like toilet roll and towels. The location was perfect with excellent transport connections but not in the city center. The dining experience was good value at €12 per person but excluded from the price. Overall, a decent choice with some room for improvement.
