Everything was ok, the expence of the Buffett and having to pay 37 AED for tiny cups of ice cream that was clearly next to the deserts in the Buffett line was a turn off. The place is noisy very noisy and late at night I could not find a quiet place to hold a conference call. The bed hard as a board very uncomfortable. The shower bathtub was so curved no flat bottom you had to stand in it like you are on a skateboard. Checked out 6 am from no sleep.

Exceptional value for money, lots to do

What a fantastic hotel with great facilities throughout. There is no doubt that this is an older hotel, but it’s clean and safe. The food was excellent, portion sizes were large and always enough to share.
The pool, slides, splash pad, cars, trampoline, chess and board games meant there were always lots to do.
Plenty of sun beds and shade and family pool with jacuzzi. The views from the hotel are exceptional and make the trip fully worth while. Only thing to be improved would be the service, often slow getting served at the bar and restaurants, but not a huge inconvenience. Overall exceptional value for money in the UAE.

Hotel was good. We initially booked a deluxe room but gave us a free upgrade to a superior room when we checked in, which was awesome. The room needs some maintenance though, AC control is not working properly, toilet flush is weak, shower is not working properly (we need to put something in the pin to open the shower to keep it going). But these are just minor things, everything was taken over by the great view that we had. Will we come back? Maybe no, once is enough. Just to experience the hotel’s location.

Great Christmas stay in Dec. 2020

We had a great stay. The hotel was one of a kind, located on top of the mountail (Jebel Hafeet) and in fact quite fresh - even chilly at night time, in December. (Can't wait to visit it in summertime for a break from the scorching heat of the \"lowlands\".)

I found the staff very (VERY) professional. Ms Thereza and Mr Ali in particular, but also the excellent chef at Belvedere restaurant, the manager and all the staff at breakfast whose name I cannot recall, made it a great stay over Christmas day 2020. (The Christmas dinner and also a quick lunch we had the following day were excellent, quality- and taste-wise; frankly so, for our often too demanding European palate :-).)

I had read various negative reviews before coming here, and almost cancelled our booking because of those, but quite honestly, I didn't find a glimpse of a negative experience or a point to raise, asides what cannot be helped: anti-Covid19 measures that made breakfast a race at peak hours (nobody's fault) or the night chill that sometimes prevented us from enjoying our drinks till late on the great balcony at Al Khayma café (still, the staff did their best to accommodate any request we had, any given time.) Same goes for the reception staff at the lobby, and for the room catering staff.

We will certainly visit this place again.

I am hotels.com gold member, was told I’d get a free upgrade, I did not. Was told the hotel was full, it was not. Was told the pool bar was open, it was not. The staff at the pool and restaurant were the least attentive staff I’ve ever come across. Breakfast served in cramped room with no ventilation. Had to ask to keep the doors open. Extremely high covid risk. Hotel it’s self is dated by 30 years, needs major investment. Apart from the view it’s a terrible hotel.

This hotel is far from the 4 star it says it is. I would say definitely more like 2.5 stars. It is very much dated. Check in was slow, but I think it's because the hotel is very much understaffed. I was not offered any VIP amenities that is mentioned on Expedia either. Our room was large enough for the rollaway we asked for, but we had to remind check in to put it in our room. Also, we wanted two twin beds and were told someone would come separate them for us. This should be done before guests arrive. In our room, we were left two large towels. We went to call housekeeping, but phones do not include extensions, so we dialed 0. We were given one extra large towel and never given the hand towels we asked for (twice). Old towels are given when you check into the pool (we had to wait for someone at the desk, but again, hotel is understaffed). The grounds had lots of trash strewn about (guests are also to blame for this, but also the lack of staffing--the same lady who brought our rollaway was the same that was seen picking up trash at the pool and at breakfast). We did room service for dinner. Had to call after food was delivered to ask for ice (which comes in a big ice bucket without a top and with a spoon) and other missing items. Steak was definitely overcooked even though we asked for medium. For breakfast, we were allowed to sit 5 to the table though social distancing regulations right now should be 4. Very crowded in the area and uncomfortable for me.

Unhappy visitor

It was disappointed. I really think that the Hotel needs an overall maintenance.
All that was good of our visit was the staff that tried to do everything to help us and was going out of their way to make the stay better.
Food was not good at all. Rice was over cooked. Meat was overdone.
If we order one thing we was served with something else.
But most of all the hotel need to get attention and really the maintenance need attention.
Toilets was not working proper. Ac problem. Noises of the water pipes in the evening.

The Staff made the stay! (And the views, too!)

The great staff is the highlight of the Mercure. From check in to check out the staff was wonderful. We stayed one night on a Friday night and really enjoyed the break from the heat of Abu Dhabi. It’s at least 10 degrees cooler. The pool was refreshing and we really enjoyed the wind and the view at the mountaintop restaurant. All details were taken care of for us; as soon as we walked out to the pool the staff was arranging disinfected sun loungers for us. The food at the pool restaurant was great and we had both dinner and lunch the next day there. I had the chicken breast with grilled vegetables and for lunch I had the turkey club sandwich with fried shrimp. The prices are very, very reasonable.
The Deluxe room (pool view) was perfect and spacious enough. Very clean, and the bed was very comfortable. The shower had a curtain and could use a redo but otherwise it was fine for us. The balconies are quite tiny, but we managed to pull the chairs out, sit and enjoy the sunrise with our favorite cocktails.
The gym needs some attention though. The rower was not functional, and there are no disinfection hand wipes or towels to wipe down the machines and weights. I was able to get a quick workout in but would probably not return. There were quite a few other fun activities available like ping pong, mini golf and pool I noticed other guests playing and they looked like they were having lots of fun.
We were able to walk up to the top of the mountain from the hotel and

Excellent hotel but a few more staff needed.

I have always loved this hotel and took my friends for a weekend staycation. There was a bit if difference from previous times which you must except during Covid. There was a lack of staff especially in the restaurant at breakfast time. It took 3 request and then a manager to get drinks which came well after we had finished our food. We were not able to get water at the pool as no one was around. We had to go inside to the hotel restaurant ourself to buy some. The staff are fantastic and kind and helpful, they are just too few. The pool was awesome but at times above the limit of 40 and many people were wearing normal clothes in the pool. There are a lot of hornets around the pool but they never stung anyone and it was great to see nature around us. Food was very cheap and really yummy. The rooms are huge and very clean. The weather was unbelievable; so cool and breezy. You would not think at all that you were still in the UAE. I will go back again as I really love this hotel. When checking out I received 2 phone calls within 10 minutes to check I was leave at 12. The second call was while I was standing at reception at 12:01 pm. This showed me they were really pressed for staff for room cleaning and I was a little put off by this. Overall. A good stay. Fantastic staff and a great location.

Pool area not as vast as appears from picture angle. Not sure how they can advertise it as having three swimming pools - we only saw one main pool. It was also smelly around the pool and there were lots of flying hornet type creatures didn't allow for any relaxing. Plus side is the room, although dated, was clean and spacious and the bed was comfy. And nicely located for access to the top of Jebel Hafeet. However I'd stay elsewhere in Al Ain and drive up one evening - we went as far as cancelling our second night and rebooked at Aloft - so glad we did!

Sometimes upheaval helps 2 find clarity of purpose

We have stayed at the Mercure 3 times and the first 2 times were amazing but this last visit disappointed us quite a bit. The food service was slow and disjointed... Understandably the hotel is grappling with reopening during a covid pandemic but I told the receptionist that at this time they have 3 things that they have control over 1. Location 2. Service and 3. Food. On location they win all day everyday. On service, they were disappointing... Did not seem to know what to do. Slow service with certain ordered items forgotten. On Food, it was less satisfactory. The menu is not that extensive and for a well trained kitchen staff they should easily execute it..but no, the food was lacklustre and cold by the time it reached us. The room service seemed inundated and slow with some of the order missing. Overall, we were disappointed this time around but we will definitely go back there because we understand that this pandemic has thrown everything and everybody out of sync. We love Mercure and we are sure they will bounce back to be as amazing as they were pre COVID-19.

Amazing place however the reception was rude, maybe because we are asian guest. i never received our shaving kit even i called for 2 times until finally we decided to check out early. the management should give more trainning to the staff.

not recommended

we went to this hotel to relax in the weekend ; i expected un upgrade since i have the gold expedia membership ; but they didn;t do any upgrade . Although the room is good but the curtains are very old and the balcony was not clean with some cigarettes butts!! And when i asked for water bottles to the room they said we have to pay !! Even for a tea bag for a morning tea they said it should be paid !

In the last few years i tried many lower stars hotels in many countries and in UAE ; i can say that i didn't feel we were welcome in this hotel ..... Most of the hotels in UAE specifically they focus on cutomer satisfaction and they try their best to provide a welcoming atmosphere ........

It is not a matter of money ; but this is the first time for me to pay for water or tea bag in ahotel!!

Panoramic view

My second time there and definitely great. We would appreciate if the pool could open early than 9 am as it's too hot and under the sun. Nice in the evening until 9 pm. We tried their pizzas, was good.

Great place to relax.

Fantastic stay. Great place to get away from the city to. Beautiful views (although a little hazy in summer) and an awesome pool. Mini golf is fun and staff were all very friendly. Shout-out to Ahmed Abbas Shokry who is the restaurant and bar manager. He made the trip fantastic by being very friendly, personalised service and attentive. Food in the restaurant was great. Negative is the food and adult beverages pool side. Best to stick to pre-mixed drinks and eat elsewhere. Will defiantly go back again.
