The broken elevator made my stay difficult. I had to climb five flights of stairs with my groceries and wasn’t offered assistance until the issue was fixed. Parking was also a problem: although I paid for a week, there was no space available, so reception advised me to use the accessible parking area. On the positive side, the restaurant was excellent and breakfast was outstanding.

Great reception and staff, shower not good, hardly any hot water, lifts broke down - looks a little run down but good location for conference, bed was good and it was clean and tidy with nice staff.

The staff we excellent and friendly. Good breakfast. The rooms are very dated and shabby, peeling paint in bathroom. Lift was broken phones for room service nor working.

Richard F. Couples - Confirmed reviews ALL

Arrived to find one lift working, the other out of action for a fortnight, at least, according to one account. The other, through over-use, broke down during our stay, meant that the only access was walking up and down five levels of stairs, which was unacceptable. Customers treated with disdain.

A good size room, clean and the ability to open the window is a definite bonus. The bathroom was a bit tired but maintenance were prompt and efficient when I identified an leaky shower.

We stayed on a Saturday night and the noise from outside the building was horrendous. There was a woman screaming (sounded terrified) repetitively and I'm sure there was a drag race right out front. We thought surely the police will be called soon. Do you have a night manager as we thought they would have dealt with the disturbance much quicker. The price we paid was elevated for a hotel that is quite old.

The bed was comfortable and the room was fine, the bathroom was very tired though and the whole place smelled a little damp. The pool area was a bit disappointing as well. Breakfast was good though!

Originally booked for 3 nights. When asked to extend for an extra night the price of the room was hiked by an extra $100. Went elsewhere.

It was a basic hotel. No meals on a Sunday evening, no water in the room. On the third night no replacement hand towels or face cloths. No reception for bag pickup on leaving. Only one lift available. For the price it wasn't great.

Jason C. Business - Confirmed reviews ALL

Only one elevator was annoying and the shower was very cold when it due it not being closed off. No clear rear exit was annoying when parked at the back

Shabnam E. Business - Confirmed reviews ALL

I couldn’t sleep all night because of the constant noise from cars and trucks on the street. The street-facing windows should be soundproofed to prevent traffic noise from disturbing guests’ sleep.

Room servicing not 100%. Needing dusting on arrival. Table, tissue box most telling. Staff obliging when asked. Lift delays dreadful. Seemed to be scrimping on setvice

Customer review rating 1.0/5

Jai N. Families - Confirmed reviews ALL

Extremely disappointing stay. Unacceptable cleanliness and poor follow-up from housekeeping. As an Accor Gold and ALL Accor+ Explorer member, I regularly stay at Accor properties and have generally had excellent experiences. Unfortunately, my recent stay at Mercure Newcastle from 23–25 October was by far one of the most disappointing. Despite housekeeping confirming my room had been cleaned, I arrived to find hair throughout the bathroom, including what appeared to be pubic hair from previous guests, and significant dust throughout the room. I immediately raised this with the Assistant Manager, who assured me housekeeping would attend to it. We left the hotel to give them time, only to return and find the bathroom still dirty. I ended up cleaning it myself, during which I discovered a small shard of broken glass. Even the towel I used showed dirt residue from the bath. The following day, I left a written request asking housekeeping to dust the room. They left a note confirming it had been done, yet the dust remained visibly untouched. This was particularly frustrating given that management had already been made aware of the problem. To make matters worse, the fire alarm directly above the bed flashed approximately every 20 seconds throughout the night, and the air conditioner was excessively loud, making a decent night’s sleep almost impossible. There was no conveniently accessible drinking water in the room, and given the bathroom’s condition, I was uncomfortable using the tap. The extremely long elevator wait times throughout the busy weekend made travelling to reception unnecessarily inconvenient. Which from reviews, elevator has been broken for months. I was also disappointed by the unclear inclusions of the $331 a night Drive and Stay package. I booked this specifically for the advertised parking and breakfast, only to discover on Sunday morning that breakfast was not included for the second day because I had redeemed my Accor+ complimentary night. This was not made clear during booking. Had I known, I would have chosen the cheaper room option and used public transport instead. This room isn’t even worth $200 a night. The ibis would have been just as good, and a lot cheaper. I will acknowledge that the welcome card, wine and snacks from the General Manager were a thoughtful gesture. Unfortunately, they were completely overshadowed by the poor condition of the room and the failure to address my concerns. The most disappointing aspect wasn’t simply that the room was dirty. It was that I reported the problems, gave housekeeping the opportunity to rectify them, and still ended up cleaning the bathroom myself. Basic hygiene, a safe room and a comfortable night’s sleep should be the minimum standard at any hotel, regardless of membership status. I have formally raised these concerns with Accor Guest Relations and received a generic acknowledgement advising that my complaint has been forwarded to the hotel. I am still awaiting a substantive response. My Explorer membership is due for renewal, and this experience has genuinely made me question whether I wish to continue. I hope Accor takes these concerns seriously, particularly the broken glass and repeated housekeeping failures, and demonstrates the level of customer service I have previously associated with the brand.

Great location. On-site parking was full by the time we arrived Saturday afternoon (from those checking in Friday) but street parking out the front was free by that time. Walls are not well insulated so we could hear our neighbouring rooms talking clearly so if you are a light sleeper I wouldn’t suggest staying here.

Customer review rating 2.5/5

Russell T. Business - Confirmed reviews ALL

Low water pressure in shower - no power point on my side of the bed for a cpap Machine and the staff were unable to find an extension cord anywhere in the hotel to assist - they suggested I go over to Woolworths and buy one. One lift out of order for 4 days which meant a long wait every time. Very slow service for food and drink as they were severely short staffed all the time. Although Ellie tried really hard, having to man the restaurant desk, make the coffee, run to the chef to place orders, she handled the pressure well under stress. As pleasant as she was, you could see she needed assistance but none was ever forthcoming. As a gold member and having stayed at many Accor hotels, this was probably the most frustrating experience I have had ever. Sorry about this review, which is hard for me to write as some of the staff were excellent. Unfortunately they obviously have very little support.
