Martin, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

We stayed in one of the new River Creek Villas and they were beautiful. Clean, comfortable and spacious. Lots of little well thought out touches. The bed and pillows were super comfy. The night supervisor when we arrived was so friendly and lovely. Thank you for a great stay.

Parking easy once you’re told where it is and how to get there. Driving from the road very confusing.

4/10 Fair

Breakfast included was great but the property is tired and really not worth the price we paid. Would stay elsewhere next time and probably wouldn’t stay at a Mercure again after this experience

Cannot recommend high enough. Our check in staff member Baites Gerrard was the best customer service ever. Loved our pool villa. Will definitely stay many times more as we want to personally see Baites again.
Vicki, 1-night trip

Restaurant staff super friendly and helpful. Checking staff simply overwhelmed when a crowd checks in. More staff needed.
Peter, 2-night trip

6/10 Good

Expensive

Took a long time at check in. Love checking out at 11. Very friendly staff but not value for money
Emily, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

Overpriced, basic room. Bathroom in poor condition
Amy, 1-night trip

2/10 Poor

Understaffed and overpriced

The site us having renovations done, but that was not an issue. The service from the shuttle bus which is dirty, to check in which is tardy, to the standard of the room booked, the place is a mess. The walkway to my original room had overflowing rubbish bin and laundry bins on the walkway, the room was truly awful; door with chipped paint and dirty, carpet dirty, walls with marks on them. I complained and was given an upgrade, but from arrival to the other room took 1.5 hours. Next morning, couldn't even get a coffee as there are not enough staff; I was the only person who had to leave without breakfast.- Mercure - never again.
Robyn, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

Rooms a bit tired and could do with renovation. Area all around is a noisy building site. Restaurant very limited. Cannot summon shuttle bus from airport, On the plus side housekeeping was good, rooms were clean and staf friendly.
William, 3-night trip

8/10 Very good

Stayed at a FIFO camp

The compact room was nice enough but reminded me of a worker camp. Shuttle to the airport was prompt as I got it just as some FIFO workers were heading over for a early morning flight. The restaurant was busy and had table service but the staff didn't seem to have sections as I had different servers asking if I needed to order.
1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Unfortunately for us room staff was a bit lacking and very lukewarm water in shower. Hot water was terrible
Janice, 7-night trip

4/10 Fair

The cost outweighs the services provided.
Israel, 1-night trip

4/10 Fair

We frequently stay at this hotel but were disappointed this time when our $399 room (for one night) had a broken shower. We found this out in the morning when we went to use it! Very disappointing that this had not been picked up by the cleaner or reported by the previous guest. Waste of money!
Jeff, 1-night trip

2/10 Poor

Airconditioner not working probably .There was no hot water in the bathroom .We did report this and they were to send maintenance man to fix but still a cold shower in the morning.The room was $230 for the night and would not recommend it to anyone.The room was very old and dated and a 1 star rating .Was not a great experience.
