Mercure Grenoble Centre Président hotel 4 stars

Friendly staff, clean rooms, good beds. Worn out facilities, like elevators, gym... Housekeeping was not able to replace batteries of remote control in three days. Waiter in the bar was absent more than half an hour.

I can confirm that restaurant has improved after new Director took over the hotel. Dinner was much more tasty and served warm and on time (past years it was always always nearly cold, you could wait for ages and still taste was random). Now food is much better. It allows me to stay and actually eat dinner at the hotel. There are still some issues like lack of text massage sent with parking code (but this could be Accor system issue), cleaning service and cosmetics (some items you get only once per stay - ridiculous), non functional elevator (sometimes you can wait 5-10min for elevator, while the second one stays on the ground floor - really annoying). Still the neighborhood is quite dangerous, you always need to use taxi or car. Especially at the evening do not walk alone.

We decided to stop for the night in Grenoble while heading to Marseille for the"le Defi de Monte Cristo" open water swim. The weather was somewhat stormy with reports of flooding. Traffic heavy in the city but quiet when we got to the hotel. The property was being remodeled but the interior was clean and well kept. Our room had plastic over the windows so it was hard to get cool air. We woke early and around 8am could hear the workmen starting their projects. Breakfast was fabulous with a variety of fine French cheese and meats as well as fresh fruit that tasted like it just came off of the trees. We didn't have time to utilize the gym or swimming pool but checked them out-appeared great. Definitely a "do again"!

Taking a Friday afternoon flight to Lyon and drive to the Grenoble President followed by a Saturday morning drive to our ski resort worked very well. No adverse comments about the hotel. Finding it needed the sat-nav as it was soon clear that our original plan of trying to follow a map around the city was not good. Thanks Mercure.

Beautiful hotel on the inside. Staff were so helpful, they didn't have room service at the weekend but the chef couldn't be more helpful and said we could order anything from the menu delivered to the room. The jacuzzi and steam room was lovely. Room facilities were fantastic, lovely room, very clean. Only stopped over on journey home from the alps but really impressed with the hotel.

The best thing about this hotel is that it provides free secure parking in a city where parking is at a premium. It is on the outskirts of Grenoble but the centre is within walking distance or you can take the tram. There is a stop two minutes from the hotel. Very clean, comfortable accommodation at reasonable prices if you book in advance. There is even a small pool and sauna, free for guests. If you have a car, it is easy to get out of the city to any of the wonderful walking areas within 45 minutes to an hour from the hotel.

Staff are excellent, I've stayed in this hotel a dozen times now and it's my hotel of choice when I stay in Grenoble. Check in very quick, with very pleasant and helpful staff. The restaurant again have very good staff with a good choice of quality food. Rooms are clean with great rain forest showers.

Really nice hotel, very clean, good breakfast, and nice pool with sauna. You have to walk about 5 min to get to the bus. Room was very clean. I dont know what to write more about it....its a good hotel, no need to say more!

I used to stay this hotel. This is new visit after 3 years absent. Room is renovated as accor standard. Quiet and good location if you have a car. Supermarket is 3min on foot. A pity breakfast quality is not as good as before.

nothing outstanding, nothing wrong. somewhat close to center (some minutes to walk), but worth it, good rooms, great breakfast, what you expect... they have a spa and pool area, but I haven't used it. Had a 'business' package, that had breakfast and internet included - worth it if available

I regularly stay in this hotel for business and the personnel is absolutely outstanding. At reception desk, at the restaurant or at breakfast; everybody is helpuf, courteous . They all seem very happy to work in this hotel and they are real professional caring about their customer. Quality of personnel stands out and is more comparable to a 4 or 5 star hotel.
