Mercure Paris Montmartre Sacré Coeur Hotel

The hotel is in a nice location close to everything you really need when staying in Nice. Our room had a nice balcony and was large. The front of the hotel is nice, the interior is nice when you get in. That's about where it stops. Once you get into the hallways things start to change and by the time you get into the room, well, things get a little old. This hotel could really use an update to its rooms and halls. Too bad and I wouldn't give this hotel more than a 3 star rating. This hotel is in a great location; minutes from the beach, vieux Nice and main shopping and eating areas. The public areas are large and tastefully decorated but the rooms leave something to be desired. We viewed several rooms before deciding to upgrade to a 5th floor sea view room with a balcony, expensive, but the view was great.We had our teenage daughter in the room with us and it was rather squashed.

The hotel bar was pleasant and the staff were friendly. The beds were small but comfortable. The bathroom was spacious and clean. The best thing was that we were only a few minutes from colorful Montmartre! The breakfast was fantastic quality cold meats, hot bacon and eggs and lots of fresh fruit yogurt and pastries - too much really. his hotel is only a three star but highly recommended, very close to the Moulin Rouge and a wonderful street of local shops and restaurants where you could get fine meals. For the budget conscious and not - a wonderful welcoming hotel, which makes all the difference to your stay.

First impressions of the hotel very good. Has the look and air of a more expensive hotel. Spacious lobby & well decorated throughout the building. Very welcoming check-in. Efficient, everything explained, made to feel a valued guest, especially liked the little extra touches of a gift of local cake and free drink at the bar. Good supply of city maps in the reception area. Rooms modern and clean with good level of facilities. Handy to have a kettle with well stocked tea/coffee etc. Great to have a mini-cooler (which also came with a free bottle of water, another nice pleasing touch). Good and easy to operate safe.

The hotel is located a few hundred feet from the metro, and a 20 minute walk from the Opera area of Paris. There are plenty of markets, bakeries and grocery stores close by. The room itself was very small but nice and clean. Check in was excellent. The lady who checked us in was fantastic. Our room was ready so she let us check in early. She hoped us directions, the metro, and restaurant recommendations. The kettle in our room was not working and it took 2 days to have it replaced. Even still, my daughter was given a key to an empty room and had to get the kettle herself. The man who checked us out was not so helpful and not very friendly at all compared to the other staff we encountered. Aside from that, I really enjoyed this hotel and would definitely recommend it. Location next to an adult shop is not great. Room was clean and bathroom is nice. One of the reception workers was really welcoming and the other a bit grumpy. Very close to Pigalle metro stop which was one of the main reasons we booked here
