I booked a room and booked the 3 course meal for £127.50, I had problems with the booking upon arrival which took just under an hour to resolve, then I was told the 3 course meal I couldn't have anymore dispute prebooking and that I would get a £22 discount off my meal for me and my son instead which I didn't receive I then ended up with a £99 food bill which from what I originally booked should of only been a bill for drinks which were included. What should of been a £127.50 stay plus drinks became nearly £250 needless to say I won't be staying here again

I had booked a suite, advertised on your site as the “best room” available in the hotel, 6-7 weeks before our stay. On arrival I was only to be given a less equipped room but still charged at the higher rate.
At this point I have to say there was nothing wrong with the room given in that it was clean and warm. It just wasn’t the room I’d booked and paid for.
I returned to reception to query my room only to be told that management had given the room I had booked to someone else.
Not happy and will now consider cancelling my next stay next month and book in to the Marriott instead.
Thank you for taking the time to share your experience. We are sincerely sorry that we failed to provide the suite you had booked and that you were still charged the higher rate.
We completely understand your frustration, particularly as you had made your reservation 6–7 weeks in advance and had specifically chosen the suite based on it being advertised as our best available room. While we’re pleased to hear that the alternative room was clean and warm, this does not make up for not receiving the room you had reserved.
We are also sorry that you were informed that the room had been given to another guest. This is not the level of service or booking experience we aim to provide, and we will be reviewing what happened with our management and reservations teams.
We appreciate that this experience has affected your confidence in staying with us again, and we are genuinely sorry to hear that you are considering cancelling your upcoming stay. Thank you for bringing this matter to our attention and giving us the opportunity to review where we went wrong.

First off the bat, the staff are great and a credit to the organisation. The hotel however needs a little help. I found it odd that the person on reception asked me if I wanted the heating on, and if I did he would switch it on at reception for me. The room had a damp smell when I walked in, that only went after I opened the window, and ran hot water through the sink and bath. The room itself looked tired and was very sparsely furnished, but the worst part of the room was the bed. I can honestly say, it is the most uncomfortable hotel bed I have ever attempted to sleep on. Absolutely rock hard, with no give, or support, and very hard, lumpy pillows. The whole thing was covered with a thin duvet that made me think that it was a good job I asked for the heating to be switched on.
I'm bound to say that the food in the restaurant was below average, five king prawns with chorizo that was so thin it must have been sliced with a laser, followed by a burger that was very bland, and chips that were as thick as a Mars bar, but not cooked well at all with a slightly odd taste, possibly new oil needed in the fryer?
The noisy floor boards were a pain that creaked whenever anyone walked along the first floor corridor, and the guest in the room below must have thought a circus troupe were practising an acrobatic display with amount of creaking every time I moved across the room.
Breakfast was great, except that there was no milk in the one working of the two coffee machines.
Thank you for taking the time to share such detailed feedback. We’re particularly pleased to hear your kind comments about our staff. We agree that our team are a real credit to the hotel, and we’ll be sure to pass your compliments on to them.
That said, we’re very sorry that so many aspects of your stay fell below the standard we aim to provide. Your comments regarding the heating, damp smell, tired condition of the room, uncomfortable bed and pillows, and the noise from the floorboards are all disappointing to hear. We understand how important a comfortable and peaceful night’s sleep is, and we apologise that this was not your experience.
We’re also sorry that your restaurant experience did not meet expectations. Your comments regarding the food quality and preparation have been noted and will be shared with our food and beverage team. It’s good to hear that you enjoyed breakfast, although we apologise for the inconvenience with the coffee machine and lack of milk.
We genuinely appreciate you bringing these issues to our attention. Your feedback gives us valuable areas to focus on, and we hope to have the opportunity to welcome you back and provide a much-improved experience.

The staff were the strongest part of the stay. Everyone we dealt with was friendly and helpful, and the receptionist remained professional despite a slow check-in system and a queue forming.
Unfortunately the hotel itself feels badly in need of refurbishment. The room was tired and poorly maintained, with worn carpet, rough repairs in the bathroom and a generally dated feel. The bed was comfortable and the shower worked well, but the room became very stuffy as there was no air conditioning. Opening the window helped, although noise from the creaky corridor made sleeping more difficult.
There were other smaller issues too, including stained mugs, residue around the room and a TV that barely worked. The corridors and public areas also felt tired, while the gym felt more improvised than something I would expect from a Mercure.
We had originally booked for three nights but chose to leave after the first night and were refunded the remaining two. The staff handled that well, but the condition of the hotel simply did not match what I expect from the Mercure brand.
Thank you for taking the time to share detailed feedback regarding your recent stay with us, and for your continued loyalty as an ALL Accor Platinum member.
We are truly sorry that your experience fell far short of the standards you expect from the Mercure brand. While we are pleased to hear that Meg and our team handled your early departure professionally and provided friendly service despite the busy check-in, it is deeply disappointing to learn that the condition of your room, the maintenance, and our facilities were so unsatisfactory.
Please rest assured that your comments regarding room maintenance, cleanliness, and the check-in key system have been passed along to our management and maintenance teams to address immediately.
We appreciate you bringing these issues to our attention, as your feedback is vital in helping us prioritise improvements.

Used this hotel many times as a stopover on the way to Pembrokeshire. The rooms are OK, but even the Privilege rooms don't have a walk-in shower. Getting in and out of the bath to shower without a suitable handle on the wall is difficult.
