Room was quaint as it's a heritage listing. Was not impressed with buffet breakfast on our 1st morning. The hash browns, tomatoes, bacon were cold & the scrambled eggs were just warm. Not much choice of fruits or yoghurts. 2nd morning breakfast things were a fraction warmer but chose poached eggs which had eggshell in it. Also the diinners served in the bar area were also average

We really enjoyed our short family holiday at the Mercure Canberra. The location was great (and in easy walking distance of the AWM), very good parking, the staff were very friendly, the building had old world 1930s ambience, and the buffet breakfast was a great hit with my daughter. An easy to recommend place to stay.

After three years of going to the Mercure 3-5 times a year I finally met a grouchy desk person. Who didnt understand I couldnt get your new onlne site to work so I used expedia. This ruffled her feathers. So they gave me the kingbed Rm 410 with the heate system kicking on every hour. I lost my card for 2024 or never got it and I was promoted to Gold when booking into Accor's Surfers Hotel 4 weeks before. After 18 years (with a short divorce break) of staying in ACCOR Hotels across NSW ACT and Qld I had a person question my Gold membership. Yet when I stayed at the Fairmont in Katoomba, Serena at the desk downloaded the APP for ACCor on My phone. Showing my Gold Status. I was humbly perplexed by the receptionist at Mercure Canberra. Oh well bad day, I guess. Walter
