"Conveniently located in the center of Jena, right next to tram and bus stops, a supermarket, restaurants, pharmacy, etc. Beautiful views of buildings built in 1800s and the modern Jena Tower. Within 10 min walking distance to many destinations, such as the Zeiss Planetarium, Observatory, cathedrals, etc.
Very clean rooms, spacious bathroom, fast internet."
"The Mercure Hotel in Gera was good business and comuter hotel. The surroundings were a bit eerie because a lot the buildings gave off a cold and industrial feel that were remnants from the Soviet Era. The bathtub in my room was a bit high and slipped and hurt myself get out of the high bathtub. The parking was also tricky because the door to the faciity was very quick. The consierges were frendlier and provided me with an iron an ironing board to get prepared for two business meeting in the Gera and Thurigen area later that day."
"The staff was extremely helpful and the rooms were very clean. The TV however was broken but we are American and TV was not necessary. Overall the place was a lovely experience."
"It’s a very decent place. Almost everything I needed during my trip. Peaceful surroundings, good beer and breakfast. I wish rooms were equipped with AC, especially during the recent heatwave but I understand for this price."
"Rooms need either air conditioning or better ceiling fans. When it gets hot, there is no way to get proper airflow. If you open the windows, the insects will come inside your room. Please also add a microwave to the rooms. Shower was clogged with hair and the water could not evacuate. I had to unclog the shower otherwise the water level would have risen and gone into the bedroom area."
"This is a beautiful old hotel property. It has great bones and the rooms have been updated and modernized nicely.
That said, there are some very quirky aspects to the property. Firstly, there is no reception - just an automated machine that provides a key card. This means that there is no one to ask about parking, amenities etc. The second thing is that no one speaks English at all. The cleaning staff was very sweet but could not speak a word. We had to use Google Translate for all interactions including ordering breakfast, asking for towels, etc. Finally, the public spaces are very austere. This seems out of place with the historic hotel. For example, there are just IKEA tables and chairs in the eating area but then there is a large open foyer on the second floor with a grand piano. But there are no chairs or couches in that room. It seems with a bit of TLC this could be a great boutique hotel and cool place to hang out. This is especially true when you consider the location right across the street from the historical theatre where we attended the International Ballet Festival."
