I arrived at the hotel after late evening to find out that they had overbooked the rooms and there was no room available for me, I then had to find another hotel in the area at night and as a woman on my own this made me feel unsafe as I was not familiar with the area. A full refund should be made as I had to pay for the other hotel on my credit card. Not even a phone call was received to tell me this or risk of this, very poor customer service. This is the reason I cannot rate the above as I didn't even stay there

Dear Mrs Smith,Thankyou for your review and feedback. Overbooking hotel rooms is a common practice that is designed to protect the business (as is also seen in restaurants and on airlines, for example), however I can see this would have been incredibly frustrating for yourself and I apologize for this. We have issued a refund to Expedia for your booking with us, and I'm glad our staff were able to find you another room at a nearby hotel. I do apologize though if you were not contacted in advance as this is part of our policy. I believe our Reception Manager contacted you by phone and email the day after to apologize and offer a complimentary upgrade should you wish to book with us again, this offer is still available.Apologies again for the inconvenience caused.Kind regardsMercure Newport

The property was hard to access by car as we were not made aware that you had to park in the shopping centre car park nearby. However, parking is not free and costs £1.50 from 6pm-6am and an additional £1.50 for each hour. The room itself was good, an amazing bed and television and a great view of the town. However, there were lumps of dirt/stones on the carpet outside of the bathroom and the shower would not drain properly and ended up flooding the bathroom. Apart from that it was worth the price.

Had a great time, property is well maintained. Bathroom needs more shelving/storage as nowhere to put anything. Complimentary shower gel etc. was just on the floor in the shower. Dispenser holders would be better. Bar shuts at 21:00 which is very early for a hotel! I would have expected at least until midnight, other than that all good!

Dear Clare, Thankyou for your kind review and feedback we are glad you had a great stay. There seems to be some confusing about the opening times in NP20, last orders in the restaurant is 9pm but the bar is open later. We hope to welcome you back again in the future.Kind reportsMercure Newport

The Hotel was really good, no complaints whatsoever. The room was spotless with coffee/tea kettle facilities, good quality hand wash soap, shower and champu. New furniture, comfortable bed, large Tv, all in all everything needed. The bathroom as new. Good breakfast with a lot to choose from, very clean breakfast restaurant and friendly staff. The area in the evening was full of drunk people coming out of the two pubs across from the hotel.

This is one of those hotels with bedding and towels that smell like a greasy kitchen unfortunately. And one of our bath towels had an old plaster stuck to it. Shower tray was dirty. Otherwise great location.

The 2nd year of staying here whilst visiting family over Christmas and the standards have remained exceptionally high. This hotel is right in the centre of the city next to Friars walk yet felt quiet and peaceful throughout the stay. All of the staff are exceptionally welcoming, and the room was spotless. If you’re visiting Newport and need quick, walkable access to the city centre, Rodney Parade or train station I’d highly recommend.
