My daughter and I stayed at the Mercure Welcome weekend of 19 July. It was the third time for both of us staying there. I think its a great hotel for the price, location is excellent. We stayed in a standard room which was on the top floor facing the street. The room was very clean and the beds extremely... more

The Mercure Hotel Welcome is truly a central location. It is a large hotel with basic functionality. However, what a shocker! The room we stayed in was conveniently located right next to the lifts. The noise from these alone were enough to send you crazy! Banging, crashing noises filled our room all night for two nights as people came and... more

Unbelievable noise levels in room & corridors all night and early in the mornings. Moved to this room after drunken party next door and asked to be moved. Avoid Room 1228 & any rooms around it like the plague. Trolley noise at night and in the morning, turns out room also next to janitors room!! Noise at night screaming a... more
