I’ve stayed in many hotels, including the Mercure in Newcastle city centre at roughly half the price, which was far superior in almost every way — particularly room comfort and breakfast quality. The room itself was extremely hot. Despite raising this with staff, the only intervention was cleaning a dusty air-conditioning filter, after which I was essentially told to accept that the system turns off once the room reaches 20°C. In reality, the room remained baking hot overnight, resulting in heavy sweating and a completely sleepless night. Breakfast, which we paid extra for, was equally disappointing. Staff were noticeably unpleasant and unengaged — their facial expressions and body language made it clear they were not accommodating or attentive. One staff member was openly picking his teeth in front of guests, which was unhygienic and unacceptable. Baby high chairs were dirty and had to be cleaned by us, whereas at other hotels (including Mercure), staff proactively clean these for guests. The breakfast offering itself was very limited and poor in quality. Fruit was clearly out of date — the melon and watermelon had an off taste. Bakery options were minimal, portions were very small, and overall choice was extremely limited. There were no mugs available at the coffee machine until we pointed this out. No one introduce ##### Hemamm Stayed 1 night in Jan 2026 ### 8/10 Good #### Andrew Aug 4, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Great friendly staff. Really comfy bed. Conveniently located. ##### Andrew Stayed 2 nights in Jul 2023 ### 6/10 Okay #### Richard Jan 5, 2025 Liked: Staff & service, amenities Great staff and awesome location. Our room however was pretty ordinary. Smelt of vomit and some large red wine stains on carpet. ##### Richard Stayed 1 night in Jan 2025 ### 6/10 Okay #### Chelsea Apr 15, 2025 Room smelt damp. Shower had mould, needs a good bleach. Front reception at checkin maybe spoke 2 words. Wasn’t very welcoming. On check out, the staff member was great. Breakfast was really nice. Restaurant staff were all lovely ##### Chelsea Stayed 1 night in Mar 2025 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Holiday Inn Sydney Potts Point by IHG](https://www.expedia.ca/Sydney-Hotels-Holiday-Inn-Potts-Point-Sydney.h26479.Hotel-Information) > > [Four Points By Sheraton Sydney, Central Park](https://www.expedia.ca/Sydney-Hotels-Four-Points-By-Sheraton-Sydney.h24101534.Hotel-Information) > > [Hamilton on Everton](https://www.expedia.ca/Newcastle-Hotels-Hamilton-On-Everton.h8639019.Hotel-Information) > > [Coastal Elegance Awaits at Safety Beach.
