    The service was quite slow. Check in was at 3pm but we didn't get our key card until 3:50pm. The wait for drinks at the bar was quite long even though there were no other customers & the tables weren't cleared in reception area for quite a while, leaving it looking and feeling a little cluttered & messy.

    The rooms were exceptionally clean, the bed & pillows were super comfy & it was extremely dog friendly (which suited us as we brought a dog with us). The staff were friendly & the location is perfect.

    No toilet rolls in bathroom and lots of dogs in the dining room which we did not like. Also no room in the car park which was one of the reasons we chose the hotel as we have a very expensive car and do not like leaving it parked on the road.

    Disappointed with breakfast as I like lots of fresh fruit and this was very limited. Also the decaffeinated coffee had completely run out which was very disappointing and very poor for such a big hotel.

    When booking they did not mention that the private parking that they keep on about had to be payed for we didn't find out about that untill after we payed for the stay! It should have been in the price and told to guests on first looking to book, £30 for two nights i was not happy.

    Breakfast was very nice but we went down about 8 to 830 and a lot of things had not been replaced (ie scrambled egg bacon) it was as if we had to have the scraps left by other guests!!

    The only real complaint would be lateness in servicing the room. We came back on the first day at 4.15 and room only then being cleaned. The second day we came back at 5.00 and room wasn’t cleaned at all.

    The welcome by the receptionist was lovely, nice informative and cheerful start to our break, rooms lovely and spacious. Ate in the restaurant on two occasions and was great. Staff in restaurant also very attentive. Well done to the team at Mercury Paington.

    The only comment is communication on line, I messaged via booking.com and to request another night and early check in which they arranged without letting me know but didn’t put a note on system so room wasn’t ready.

    Very nice modern hotel, perfect location, friendly staff and good food

    Nothing thoroughly enjoyed everything

    The Mercure is absolutely gorgeous. Myself/son and baby grandson stayed in a 2 double bedded room, we took our own baby cot although they do provide them on request. The room was huge and spotlessly clean, very modern and new. Safe , fridge, tv, WiFi and huge comfy beds and pillows. Bathroom was gorgeous too with a great shower. All the staff we me were lovely and friendly. And the breakfast was just what we needed for our busy day ahead of us.Cooked and continental choices and a great coffee machine. I will stay here again and my son said he’ll stay again with the rest of his family. Parking onsite is £15 for 24 hrs. Pay at reception and log your car reg.But limited spaces.

    The extar cahrge for parking was secret until the booking had been made. It is a bit naughty to advertise parking on site, then when a booking ahs been made say that a space cannot be gauranteed and that there is a charge of £15.

    Lovely hotel, great location, helpful staff.
