Stayed over the Easter long weekend and had a wonderful time. During the Easter period there was kids hour (4-5pm) of free hot chocolate and homemade biscuits. They also had kids activity of colouring which my toddler loved doing every night. It would be good to have colouring table every day during the school holidays not just the Easter period. They also have 2 fish tanks on both sides of the building. One has the larger koi fishes which my toddler has to say hi every time we walk past.
The room was massive and had lots of free space even with a cot in our room. Only downside with a big room, we had to have the heater on full blast to heat up the room. For the buffet breakfast they didn't have the biggest selection but enough to cover the standard (incl eggs to order) and for $26 (if you pay on the spot) it's worth it. The reception staff were lovely every time we asked for assistance.
We will be back on our next trip to Canberra.

The property has old world charm and has very good sized rooms. It’s location is excellent in relation to the airport, main attractions and the city centre. I have stayed at this hotel many times over the years and frankly don’t look at other options. It was handy to the venue of the dinner we attended.

This is more feedback. The decision makers need to better respect the heritage and history of this hotel and actively promote and embrace it. It's a no-brainer that it would be good for business. It feels like Mercure bought it and tried to turn it into another generic motel. While there are glimpses of the hotels charm and heritage aesthetic on display, Mercure doesn't seem to want to be a custodian of this heritage. My feedback is purely from walking around and also eating at the bistro a handful of times. I haven't seen the accomodation. The "MERCURE" sign at the front really isnt great. You walk into a lovely 1920's heritage lobby and there is a neon Streets Icecream fridge right there, the bistro food is lacklustre (pasta night in particular seems to be supermarket ready made) and feels more like a low tier club. The location is stunning, the building is gorgeous and its needs to be better taken care of. Get a designer to help you address these things. Guarantee you'll do better looking after this hotel and its original charms rather than trying to make it into a generic mish mash of old and new.

It was an older place but had lots of charm to it, I ate in the bar and the food was average pub food but nice. It did seem a little expensive but I think thats just Canberra. The room was clean and comfortable and access to most places was easy. Not far from the rail too.

Really appreciate having pet friendly rooms, even if they are a bit tired. But charging for guest parking on top of an expensive room rate is highway robbery. A coffee pod machine or plunger in rooms would be an improvement.

Great location to War Memorial and central shopping district, however we would not recommend Mecure, Limestone ave. We travel regularly and are Accor members. This property was shabby, some aspects were dated and I would say run down, which was really disappointing for this chain of hotels. I called Duty Manager into the dining room on the first morning as Buffet breakfast on the weekend was entirely depleted with an hour til end of service. Benches of servery were messy, some hot food dried, some dishes empty, some bread selection empty. Dining room appeared unattended by staff upon arrival, tables were left messy for our entire visit, chairs pulled out, food on the floor. It is not pleasant to sit amongst other people's mess. Day two was similar, and when we asked for tea bags the dining room staff member was curt and dismissive. The hot drinks area was dirty and messy, again I had to ask for missing buffet items to be refilled. Further to this, we understand that gardening must be done, but it was very frustrating to have the noisy, smelly petrol driven blower going in the courtyard garden for over an hour on our second morning. This disturbed our rest. A very uncomfortable bed in our king room and a dark brown sofa chair that was rock solid. Hearing housekeeping staff dividing up the left over, unopened cans of alcohol from the newly vacated room next to ours as we stood in clear view in the hallway, did not instill a feeling of professional housekeeping. Dinner in Olims Bistro was very average and very overpriced. All together an uncomfortable and unpleasant five day stay. Badly done Accor Hotels.

We liked the breakfast buffet it's just the coffee which is a bit bitter. The rooms are both clean.

I've travelled to over 100 hotels for work. The ambience & atmosphere here is by far the best!

The history of the hotel is wonderful and I hadn’t done any research prior other than the location.
Food in the bistro is very tasty as is the breakfast.
Rooms are very quiet, although the aircon was a bit noisy.
The grounds need some work done and so do the interior garden walls. They just need a bit of love.
We would stay here again as really enjoyed the ambience and historical story.

It's a very old building. The microwave in our room didn't work. The air conditioners looked so old and dirty that we were afraid to use it. The reason we went to Canberra was for my daughters surgery and we wanted a nice place for her recovery. This is why my husband and decided to have breakfast one at a time so that we could let her rest. I went in to have breakfast and I informed a waiter named Bin that my husband and i will be taking turns. He said that was fine. When my husband came down to have breakfast they wouldn't let him in because our room had already been ticked off. The staff there were so rude to my husband and him like he was trying to get breakfast for free. He was very embarrassed and felt degraded. The next day i confronted them and they gave us free coffee as compensation. A cup of coffee does not make up for disgusting behaviour. Terrible experience. It's a beautiful building but very poorly maintained. The main fountain is dirty and full of mold. There is very dirty aquarium in the building which shocked me when I saw fish in that filthy green coloured water. The carpet throughout the entire hotel had stains and desperately needed to be replaced. Only one out of 2 TVs worked in our room. WiFi connection was terrible. Just awful. We will never go back there and will never recommend anyone to go there. Definitely a total waste of my money. I would give it less than 1 star if possible.
