Room was clean and comfortable. Unfortunately there was a problem with the shower taps, they screeched while water was turned on but I could still shower. The staff at the front desk were kind and helpful. I wasn't too impressed by the buffet breakfast service. On one morning, the scrambled eggs were overcooked. On a busy Saturday morning, dishes and food were running out more quickly than they were being replenished because 3 staff members were standing behind what looked like a bar area having a chat while one staff member was trying to manage on their own. When I went to get myself a bowl for my cereal, the few bowls left there had food particles on them. The cutlery available also hadn't been quickly dried after coming out the dishwasher so it had that muggy look to it which isn't presentable. Speaking of presentation, tables that needed to be cleared and wiped were building up during service. I didn't appreciate having to have my breakfast among this mess while the staff who were supposed to be looking after the dining room walked past having a conversation in their own language. It's not cheap to stay here and it's supposed to be a 4-star hotel so I certainly feel entitled to this gripe about the buffet breakfast service. Squealing shower noise + bad breakfast experience, I think 3 stars is a fair rating for my experience overall.

*Disappointing Experience at Mercure* I recently booked a package tour through Expedia, including return flights from Brisbane. Unfortunately, I wouldn't recommend this package as it didn't include breakfast, despite being similarly priced to regular bookings. We paid extra for breakfast, but were underwhelmed by the experience. The breakfast room was overcrowded, with limited options and unclean tables. It seemed like Mercure had compromised on breakfast quality for package deals. On the other hand, dinner at the in-house restaurant was reasonably good and affordably priced. The hotel room itself needed upgrading, particularly the electrical outlets, which were inadequate for charging phones or CPAP machines near the bedside. However, we liked the room layout and large windows offering a view of the surrounding trees. Additional parking costs $24 per night, although the hotel offers a deal for $15 daily. There are also off-road parking options and limited spaces near the front door. One highlight was walking to the war memorial at night, which was a pleasant experience. While the staff were friendly during check-in, they seemed overwhelmed in explaining essential information about room location, parking, and dining areas. The upgraded bathroom was a plus, but the electrical outlet was still inaccessible, and the sliding door was tricky to operate. The small closet space was a redeeming feature, perfect for storing luggage.
