The external property is gorgeous. The restaurant was fabulous for dinner. The light from the carpark keeps you awake at night. The house keeping was as expected which would only get noticed if you stayed longer than a day or two. Highly recommend a visit to the Sanctuary Day Spa.

Really disappointing stay at the Mercure. I have stayed there three times in the past six months, this was by far the worst and I will choose another option in the future. The room was smelly, it was musty when we arrived, there was no option to open the only window to get any fresh air. The skirting boards were damaged and coming off from the wall near the bathroom, making me question if there was a mould issue. The bathroom had a very bad odour coming from I assume the drains. We closed the bathroom door overnight but it was extremely unpleasant to shower in. The shower grout had mould. We arrived late at night and were checking out before 7am so it was not worth raising these issues to swap room at that point of the night. The grounds are beautiful but the rooms leave a lot to be desired.

Not happy.

We had a room for 3 adults. Room was not clean. TV only hade 3 Chanel’s, unable to chrome cast due to no internet connection. Spoke to reception who came to the room to say they only have Chanel 7, ABC and SBS. Blamed it in the renovations, which were not mentioned when we booked. The Breakfast was sub standard, soggy hash browns, cold bacon and eggs. Not happy with this place as we paid a lot for only 1 night.
