The Mercure is in a convenient location with fairly easy access to the main areas of the CBD and outer Geelong. Being on top of a hill, you get a great view over the city and the bay (dependent on room type). Check-in was easy and efficient. The rooms are large offering plenty of space, and being an older hotel... More

Yes, this hotel is definitely looking tired. Our room was quite spacious with a great view over the city and bay but overall, everything in it seemed a bit grotty and old. A major renovation of this hotel would not go astray as the location is very, very good. It's easy walking to everything Geelong has on offer! The breakfast... More

My mother and I stayed at the Mercure for a graduation weekend. On arrival the staff very kindly checked us in early, and also upgraded us. They also accommodated our request to have rooms near each other, giving us adjoining rooms. Once we got to the rooms another hotel employee noticed that we were walking between the rooms via the...

Hotel is looking tired, our room was dirty, esp batrhroom, it smelt like vomit behind bed, carpet stained in spots, cups and glasses for two people - we booked for four, thought parking and wifi was included in price - it wasn't..... we were overall a bit disappointed

Dear Kath. Sincere apologies again that your stay was not a positive one. As we discussed the standard you experienced is certainly not the norm at the Mercure and will be addressed accordingly. I look forward to welcoming you back and the opportunity to restore your faith in the hotel. Yours sincerely, Phil O’Brien General Manager More

This is my third visit to the Mercure Geelong. It is a really good place to stay. Staff are very friendly and helpful. Rooms are spacious. Would be great if you could have some connecting rooms for families though. Plenty of car parking. Gourmet breakfast . Will definitely stay again.

The Mercure Geelong was a nice quiet hotel. The location is fantastic , the waterfront and Westfields are only a 10 minute walk away. The only bad thing was the service at the front desk was very slow and they charge you $18.00 per night to park your car. Otherwise fantastic

Dear Ken, Thanks for the review and it’s great to note you enjoyed most aspects of you stay. Most certainly all “Check-ins” should be both friendly and efficient and sincere apologies that we let you down there. We also have some great packages that include parking that are definitely worth considering should you be staying in Geelong again. We hope... More

I have stayed at the Mecure a number of times over the years when visiting friends at Geelong. It's in a great location and offers large rooms. It has an outdoor swimming pool and jacuzzi which I'm not brave enough to use over the winter but is nice when traveling over the warmer months. Their buffet breakfast is average, it... More

We did have issues with the room being too hot and the front desk staff were very helpful. Some suggestions - knowing there are two guests - could you try and prvoide at least 2 drinking glasses. Also a bedside lamp on both sides of the bed would also have helped. Reduce parking rates for weekend when parking outside on... More

Stayed for 3 days. Excellent customer service from all staff. On one night had noisy neighbours in next room - they were enjoying themselves (loud music and singing) whilst we were trying to get to sleep. I rang reception and within 5 mins (and no fuss) all was quiet. Bathroom had a bit of a 'wet towel' smell to it.... More
