Our guest reviews

Lovely people, tired facility

Carl Business - 5/19/2022 Confirmed reviews ALL

As usual, a great people experience, but the facility desperately needs money spent on it. The carpet in the hallways and staircases are stained, and look like they should be in a pub somewhere. The rooms have outdated fixtures and fittings, the lampshade in my room was cracked and broken and needed replacement. I booked a large king size room, but the room was furnished with one tub chair - no lounge. where would a couple sit? Its not like there’s no room for more fit out! This facility degrades the Mercure brand, and needs money spent on it.

Exceptional service. Hotel needs some care

Anonymous Business - 5/18/2022 Confirmed reviews ALL

The staff were great. The building needs a little love. There's a bit of a smell throughout and carpet/walls/bathrooms looking tired.

Very comfy!

Kevin W. Couples - 5/14/2022 Confirmed reviews ALL

Every aspect of our stay was great, check in was very friendly and professional, access to our room was great (carpark straight into Room 103), Room itself was as you would expect from Mercure, Room service selection just wonderful and we recommend the Meat Lovers Pizza to all travellers,.....BUT Someone decided to put a small (Kids maybe) toilet seat on the normal size toilet bowl ..... .general maintenance has dropped the ball here and taken the shine off our otherwise delightful stay.

Out dated

Anonymous Business - 5/9/2022 Confirmed reviews ALL

Staff were amazing however the room is quite outdated and the bathroom experience was horrible. Having a spa is "cool" for about 2 secs but trying to have a shower and not filling up the surrounding bath was a mission. Also, the room had a funky smell in it which wasn't pleasent at all. Lastly, there was a recliner that looked like it was placed there in the early 90s.....

Overnight accommodation

Robyn C 4/20/2022 TripAdvisor review

Location of Mercure was convenient and close to Charlestown allowing me to be near family. Sleep quality unfortunately on this particular night not so good as some inconsiderate guests were talking quite loudly in the very early hours of the morning with no consideration for other guests, but otherwise stay was enjoyable

Good Hotel When in Newcastle.

agavenlock Business - 2/27/2022 TripAdvisor review

As always there isn't to much to complain about when staying here. Rooms are Fresh and Tidy. If there are any issues the staff take care of it immediately. In saying that rooms are ready for a bit of a refresh or a new bed. Overall this is just my opinion but the rooms fit the Hotel Rate. Restaurant has a good selection on offering for Dinner. Food is fresh and plenty of it. Good to see the Breakfast Buffet is back.Overall a good place to stay for business or leisure when in Newcastle.

short stay in Charlestown

J5883SNmikew 1/17/2022 TripAdvisor review

Nicely situated hotel for visiting the area of Newcastle and other parts of this coastline. Only a short road trip fom Sydney and easy to find. Parking right outside our room is a big bonus when travelling with large suitcases etc. and its free. The rooms are nicely sized , comfortable and air conned . The breakfast and dinner were top quality and the staff very welcoming and made our stay really enjoyable ...
