The place is SO attractive and inviting, Marcantonio provided a warm and professional welcome, and even came up with champagne glasses for my birthday weekend. My companion, only just moved from the South, loved the proximity to things together with much privacy. My only disappointment was that our towels were not replaced with new ones our second day. Next time I have my eye on that stunning room with its fireplace...

nice central location, comfortable furnishings; being an older traveler had to get used to the idea of no 24 hour on-site staff but things electronically (i.e. phone door key) worked out well.

First Trip to Ptown

Everything about the Mercury Hotel was great! Rooms were very accommodating and the location is perfect. Only issue was the front door would get very stuck and would lock you out occasionally.

Love Provincetown.

I had a great time at this place. Very friendly, having wine& cheese at the afternoon. There's a patio and rooftop. The room was very clean and amazing shower temperature. Great located. Only thing I tried to reach for them before arrival and it was impossible. No answer at the email/ phone.

Two Thumbs Up

A comfortable, quiet hotel in an ideal location with kind, welcoming staff ready to help you while also respecting your privacy. I stayed two different times in different rooms. Both had comfortable beds, lovely bathrooms with robes, small refrigerators, complimentary water bottles and logo totes. Check out the uppermost roof deck with its views of nearby rooftops and the sparkling waters of the harbor beyond, and in another direction, the Pilgrim Monument. It is a great spot to sit or lounge under the stars, at sunset, and in the morning. The back patios are lovely too.

David and Todd were absolutely fantastic, personable, communicative, responsive and so kind. This guest house is gorgeous, the bedroom was amazing and my bougie self needed a fan to be able to slee and they hooked us up lickety splits Being able to view the stars and the surrounding area from the roof deck was the cherry on the Sundae. In addition to thr fabulous accommodations the location of The Mercury is also perfection, close to thr Boatslip for Tea dance, less than a block from Joe’s coffee and so walkable to all the shopping, entertainment and food, yet still somehow quiet and peaceful at night. We love this place, you will too and we will be back asap. Thank you Mercury for such a wonderful stay. Shawn Madore

Such a wonderful property, it has a great roof top with beautiful view of the harbor. The rooms are very well decorated, clean and organized. David is such a sweetheart and very helpful. Also the $4 coffee coupons per day were great bonus.
