It is easy to get in and out of the city from the hotel’s location. I was expecting a Brussels style nightmare but was totally relieved. We would certainly stay here again.

펑소와 타월교체가 잘 이뤄졌음. 조식 종류가 많은 것은 아니나 깔끔하고 괜찮음. 다만 객실이 좁아서 트렁크를 열기가 힘들었음. 근처에 슈퍼가 많이 있어 편리함.

I always stay at Mercure. Great staff. Great breakfast. TV did not work but they offered to change rooms. Too much work to repack so went without it. The head waitress is a gem! We love her!

Overboeking, er werd pas in de avond een bed bijgeplaatst op de kamer. Niet genoeg handdoeken op de kamer. Gaan bijvragen, douchematjes meegekregen ipv handdoeken. Tijdens ontbijt twee keer mijn boekingsmail moeten laten zien ivm betaling ontbijt. Dit was reeds betaald. Maar ze vonden de info niet direct terug. Onprofessionele, jeugdige medewerkers voor zo een hotel. Geen propere accommodatie. Ontbijt en ontbijtruimte waren wel goed. Geen relaxed verblijf door het hele overboeking gegeven en niet bekwame medewerkers.

I wanted to use the fitness room and I wasn't told it was closed for repair - which was annoying

Very nice
One night stay. The hotel was nice and the reception staff were very helpful (allowing us early check-in). The room was nice. The only complaint is that the lock/catch on the toilet door was broken (it had been removed), so the door didn't stay closed.

Add Some More Room Lighting
I like the Mercure Antwerp City Centre hotel and this was my second time this year to visit. It's in a central location close to the train station and one can enjoy a lovely park across the street from the hotel. The breakfast is always good and the bar is nice. But I have one complaint: my room came this time with inadequate lighting. See photo of the only light for the bedroom space other than the pinpoint bed lighting. While this light is ok for the table beside it, it certainly does not help illuminate the room. As a result my room was gloomy, which is no help in winter.
