We were booked in to stay in a family room, The first thing we noticed, was the glass dining table was filthy, not wiped down at all. The beds had been made and had fresh folded towels on them, but what we found next was absolutely disgusting. We turned the pillows over to find make-up smeared on them and other stains. The quilt covers were also dirty, and pulling back the covers, we discovered dirty sheets.
We then headed back to reception to get the manager and show him the room. He apologised profusely and then offered us a different room, which seemed to be clean.
We headed out for the evening, and arrived back at the hotel around 9pm.
Being winter, we turned the air conditioning on, only to find it was not working. We called the supervisor to the room. He could not get it working, so offered to try and find us another room ( which there weren't many because of a sports event in the area) or a refund so that we could find a different hotel. It was almost 10pm at that stage and we had 2 young children with us, so we decided to stay and change to a third room.
Once we gathered our things and located the room, we found the the swipe key would not open the door. The supervisor also could not open the door. We were left in the hallway for around half an hour while he made phone calls to resolve the issue.
Eventually we got into the room which seemed OK. The next morning we found the balcony filthy, shower head dusty and outside was almost invisible due to filthy glass.

Nice hotel, comfortable room, good service, heaps of parking available. Only drawback was that the reception was locked up and unmanned when I was checking out (6am) and no note on how to check out/where to leave key (no box outside) so had to traipse around from the back of the property to the front in the dark where I was parked and leave my key under the front door. A sign on the internal locked reception door would’ve been helpful.

Hotel was fairly clean and well maintained, lighting in the bathroom was lacking and the room had just been finished being painted and the smell was very strong. There weren't enough blankets supplied for how cold it was either.

Block out blinds didn't completely fit windows, so light streamed in at each end. Toothpaste on sink, no shower gel or shampoo in containers. Terrible smell coming from bathroom, the sink was blocked. Did not report at the time due to having to be at the hospital until very late, but reported at check out, was told that a note will be left for housekeeping. We would not stay again

Lovely rooms however the palm trees need trimming due to hitting our hire car on the sides.
And the cobblestone pathway does not feel secure to walk on for an elderly person .
These could all be rectified easily making me leave a 5 star rating .
We will definitely return .

The entrance looks glamorous and service was great how ever the rooms were smaller than the photos. Also didn’t realise there was no view from the room only a car park. We didn’t like the door leading out to car park as it felt unsafe - couldn’t open window due to car park noise and smokers the air con appeared to be faulty -

Cockroach in the room. Pictures don’t reflect the condition of the room very old facilities and bathroom found long hairs on the floor carpet was old and appeared stained and dirty. Shower in the bathtub was slippery my daughter slipped over not easy access for kids or older people. Got room service and the prawns and squid were not cooked properly and the prawns tasted off the staff did give me a refund on it though as it was inedible. For the price they charge I expected better quality/newer room but was more like cheaper roadside motel unfortunately.

Quiet but within 5 minutes of Charlestown shopping.

Fairly neat and tight hotel and it looks like our room was recently refurbished.

We had 2 rooms, a deluxe king and a family room.
Both were excellent. Beautiful views from the balcony of the king room.
The pool looked very inviting. Sadly we didnt have long enough to use it.
Had a meal in the restaurant downstairs which was excellent.
Highly recommended

Very friendly staff, clean room and bathroom, clean facilities….BUT

The carpark (the one behind where you are supposed to park) is PITCH BLACK. You can hardly see the palm of your hands. This is a massive safety issue.


The air conditioner in the room had to be operated at max fan and lowest temp just to produce something, had some musky smell in the air coming out of it, and was whirring and whining all the time, made it difficult to fall asleep.

The bathroom is spacious, clean and well equipped and water pressure is surprisingly very strong I had to lower it (most hotels have average if not weak water pressures, so that was good), there were some cracked tiles in the bathroom, and the ventilation fan didn’t work with no switch to turn it on (and not connected to the bathroom light), so doing your “business” in the bathroom meant having a smelly room for a while.


And, who puts a bible in hotel rooms anymore? This is not 1965.


Good budget hotel for a short stay but definitely would not go back, and I have stayed in other Mercure branches in Australia (which made me go ahead with this booking) but the difference is chalk and cheese honestly, despite the rates being very close/similar.

It was disappointing that there was no accessible areas for a disabled person. No toilets were accessible, for such a renowned hotel this was disgraceful and behind the times. There were areas that need painting, just lot of upkeep and care is needed. Staff were wonderful , meals excellent.

The hotel was OK, and the female staff member in the bar was lovely. However, when I noticed a half-drunk bottle of wine in the fridge, I called reception to tell them so a) I would not get charged for it and b) they were aware that no one had cleaned the fridge out after the last guest, which made me wonder about what else was not cleaned properly. On check out, I again mentioned the bottle in the fridge and my concern about cleanliness. I have no idea if it was taken on board.

Stayed 3 nights as had a funeral to attend in Belmont.
Was a great location and easy to find.
The room was perfectly adequate, and clean and comfortable, however getting close to needing some refurbishment.
Staff were very friendly, and the coffee was great. As a solo traveler was also very safe, virtually parked outside your door.
Only negative was you could hear the TV's in the adjoining rooms, must have thin walls.

The staff were fantastic and the food was lovely. The water in the shower took 5 minutes to warm up and there was mould in the bathroom. The walls were paper thin and you could hear your neighbours. My neighbours played loud music until 1am and because the front desk was closed at 9pm I couldn’t call a noise complaint.
