Like the line in the old movie about the restaurant with the bad food but big portions, this hotel disappoints in probably every way but room size. (But since its so ugly, do you really need more?) The floor of the room was uncarpeted (I mean tile, not hardwood), with the cold, impersonal texture of a government office building. The unheated pool is ice cold. The front desk staff is even chillier. (Other reviews mentioned nice staff, so perhaps they fired that unhappy shrew who icily checked me in with naked contempt as she rolled her eyes and snorted at me as if she were handing me a welfare check.)

A pleasant stay. Plus points: good location in town, Staff all very helpful and friendly,breakfast fantastic Negative points:a bit run down,generally needs a refurb. Pool area needs new furniture, very few loungers etc and excisting ones rickety. No lunch facility of any nature at hotel. Some rooms being refurbed while we were there, looked nice. Generally doesn,t merit a 4 star rating at the moment

Wir verbrachten eine Woche im Mercure auf die Empfehlung eines Freundes hin, der hier zuvor abgestiegen war. Der Pool war herrlich, es war schwer das Hotel zu verlassen um auf all die Touren zu gehen, die es gibt. Das Frühstück war perfekt, ich hatte das Kontinentale und mein Mann das Warme, das riesig war! Wir hatten ein großartiges Steak im Bistro und die Kellnerin war fantastisch. Versucht das Fish and Chips in der irischen Bar, die Angestellten dort waren viel freundlicher als die meisten anderen Bars in Broome. Wir wohnten in einem zum Pool gewandten Zimmer, das schön und sauber war (etwas abgenutzt), aber man sagte uns, die Zimmer würden später im Jahr renoviert werden. Ich würde es jedem empfehlen

Stayed just one night in this hotel having managed to leave early and go stay somewhere else. The problem with this hotel is that it compares so badly to the other hotels in the area - for the same price we managed to stay somewhere much better with a kitchen and much better facilities (blue seas resort). This place is a glorified motel. We did eat at the restaurant and the food was pretty awful and there were hardly any people in there. Our room had a cockroach problem and is miles away from cable beach where all the major resorts are . If you are having trouble booking somewhere just phone the tourist office and be prepared to mix your stay in a number of different hotels - we did this during peak season and it was fine.

We spent a week at the Mercure on the recommendation of friends who had stayed before. The pool was amazing it was hard to leave the hotel to go all the tours that are around. Breakfast was perfect, I had the continental and my husband had the cooked which was huge!. We had a great steak in the bistro and the waitress was fabulous. Try out the fish and chips in the Irish bar, the staff in there were much friendlier than most of the other bars in Broome. We stayed in a poolside room which was nice and clean (bit tired) but they said the rooms are going to be done up later in the year. I would recommend it to anyone
