Pros - Great Location and Accessible to Tram - Hotel contacted me few days before stay to confirm arrival - Early check-in - Appointed larger room on 6th floor with nice furniture and fresh-looking carpet - Staff friendly - Naïma restaurant had good food for breakfast & lunch Cons - Lacking general ALL AccorPlus status recognition (no welcome item in room, drink voucher (had to ask afterwards) or breakfast inclusion - Naïma Restaurant hours limited to 7am - 2:30p (Accor website hours wrong stating 5p - 10p) - Body Wash and Shampoo dispensers empty in bathroom entire stay - Food on floor next to bed - Televisions in room limited functionality This was my second stay at hotel (first being in May 2023). My first stay, service was excellent and had a quick check-in and was given Accor status recognition at front desk verbally, upgraded room, welcome gift of wine in room, a welcome note from manager at time, breakfast and drink vouchers. I rebooked for this stay in December 2023 after such a great experience the 1st time. In short, I walked away disappointed this time and expressed as much on check-out when asked about the stay. The person at check-out stated he would let the manager know the feedback, so hopefully there is attention taken to these issues. I will start by saying staff were pleasant. The room assigned had fresh carpet and furniture. Part of the issue was a couple simple items I wanted addressed which I asked each day of stay never were addressed.

When you do this, you lose access to Internet on phone since television is not connected to Internet to pass through Internet. This made the casting mostly useless unless you have offline content to cast. I did not bother to report this as at this point, I felt like I would be bugging the hotel staff for one thing after the next. When it came to breakfast, I was told it was not included with stay which was a surprise from previous stay where they automatically issued me vouchers for my status. This was a first not having included as platinum (and previously as diamond) member at a Mercure hotel. I later learned this hotel does not participate in the breakfast program inclusion on ALL website which I guess is a change from May stay, as I had same room type booked each stay which d
