Mercure Welcome Melbourne

4.0 star property
7.8 out of 10, Good, (1139)
"This is our usual go-to choice when staying in Melbourne (2x Adults with 1x Child). But their recent change of only servicing your room every three days means that a weekend away will not allow you to experience a 'new room' feeling when arriving back from your daily travels. This is making me feel like we stayed in a Motel rather than a CBD Hotel."
