Disliked: Cleanliness
Room was disappointing. Radiator was really dirty in between the fins which visible and should be easy to clean. Carpet is cream which showed up a lot of stains and back of bathroom door had stains down it near the bottom which was rather unpleasant. Bed was comfy and room had enough facilities. Hotel looks a little tired with carpets and decorating on stairway and corridors. Staff all pleasant and service was good. Think it is overpriced based on the above but overall not too bad.

Uncomfortable

Ok the hotel is in a nice location on the water. Plenty of restaurants around. A lengthy walk to the pier and a shorter walk to Eye 360. However, mid August still fairly warm and No AC. Yes, no AC. Seems to be acceptable in England to have no AC in hotels but just a small fan you place on the desk to attempt to cool off your room. What else can I say, I’ve stayed at a Mercure in Nice and thought it was top notch so I selected this on based on the name.
