Mercure Hotels in Hannover

We wanted to stay just out of the hustle of the city and this hotel fitted that bill. It’s located in a good area with plenty of eating options nearby and is really close to the tram, u bahn and bus stop for getting around. Everywhere in the hotel is exceptionally clean with good size rooms. We were there 3 nights and were given the opportunity to decline the maid service which we did and were given two vouchers for a free soft drink. The breakfast was excellent with a huge choice and this set us up for the day. Really pleasant staff in the restaurant as well as throughout the hotel. The only disappointment was the bar was closed when we wanted a drink on a Sunday evening at 9.30pm.

The location of this hotel is excellent for getting out and about. We stayed here for the Christmas markets and they where only a 10 minute walk away. We didn't eat in the hotel but we used the bar every night and it was great!! The check in was easy and painless and we were welcomed by polite and friendly staff who took time to explain everything. Room was okay as rooms go it had it all, was well equipped and clean, towels were changed for the whole five nights that we were there. To get to the train station from the airport is easy just a train ride away, then a taxi costing just 8 euro's. Our intention is to return to Hannover again for the Christmas markets next year and we will stay here again. All in all we had a great short city break made easier by the great staff and the hotel it's self.

Because of the EMO we were allowed to check in Mercure business. The hotel is a little remote on the outskirts of the city, near a industrial neighborhood, but in the green. Reception was warm, check-in took only a short time. Provided with all the necessary information, I was allowed to acquire the huge room. It was extremely generous with a lot of space. Also the bathroom with corner bathtub and large shower convinced. Only the toilet was a little close. Everything was very clean and everything was available that the business traveler needs. Because it is on the outskirts of the city, it was also very quiet. Only the aircraft in the wet cells disturbed because they went after very long. The breakfast buffet offers all sorts of choice. The quality of the offer is OK. Only the size of the room for the buffet is a little small, sometimes you almost don't pass over to the other guests. On request, various coffees are also brought. The staff is very friendly, set and helpful. The price is absolutely correct. For us the only route from the fair to the hotel was a little far. Otherwise, nothing is in the way of getting back there.

It's nice to plunge in this again just after a car trip to a outside pool. Rooms: nice, up to date. Bad room: shower in bath always find it difficult. A water cooker is always nice. The hotel is outside the busy center at medical hospital. Dearly calm you would think. However, often sirens and often rising helicopter near the hotel. Breakfast is good but the evening is very summary. No vegetables with a frite cut. A simple glass of merlot is 10 euros.

FORA HOTEL HANNOVER by MERCURE 19 July – 20 July 2024 My husband and I stayed at this hotel before our flight to Cape Verde, so I can write only about its location, room/bathroom and breakfast plus parking lot. It’s about 10-minute drive from the hotel to the airport. The taxi fare for this 10-minute drive is EURO 30. The room is basic, but sufficient. There was no mineral water nor slippers in the room, which is a shame. Mercure, really? The breakfast is VERY basic. Not much choice – you eat what you get and you’re on your way. Has no-one considered that travellers would like to have a hearty breakfast before they’re off to the airport, especially when they have a long flight ahead? Definitely something to improve, Mercure! The parking lot is underground, which is very convenient. We left our car there for the length of our holiday (14 days) and collected it “safe and sound”. So this is a big plus. But you cannot book the park-sleep-fly service directly with hotel – it’s only possible by some website. Also, the transfer to the airport is only one-way (before you fly, not after you land so be prepared to take a taxi from the airport). Moreover, they tell you that parking your car there is free – no extra charge to the room charge (which is EURO 100+). We wanted to grab some sleep after we returned from our holiday, but the price for “a room only” would be the same as for the “park-sleep-fly service”, so it made little sense. We decided to pick up our car, and hit the road even though we arrived at 03:50 am. Tough for us, but tough for the Mercure too as they could make some extra money. Oh, and by the way, the location of the hotel is not that nice. We went for a short walk in the evening, and it turned out that it’s a bit hued district if you know what I mean. Just a long street with geshefts – nothing to see in the whereabouts, no walking grounds or parks either. Would I recommend? Not really. If we fly from Hannover again, we’ll stay at the airport hotel next time.

It is certainly not the best located hotel for those willing to discover Hanover, though aware that the city doesn't have a handful of attractions for tourists. Famous for its fairs and congresses, Hanover has a number of hotels spread all over the city. This Mercure is closer to the highway A2 than to downtown, yet one gets there within half an hour with the tram line 3. There are no facilities near the hotel, like shops, banks, restaurants, anything; one need at least three tram stations to get something. No wonder it is often chosen for seminars and meetings, one reason why it is often full up and with a high fare. The check-in process was a bit clumsy but eventually everything went well. Rooms on the 6th floor are spacious enough and quite appealing, really functional in all senses. Noise isolation is perfect, once can see and not hear the planes landing nor the construction nearby. Breakfast has everything one needs but presentation doesn't make it so attractive. Staff there doesn't make any effort to be nice or friendly to guests, only within themselves. Again, it wouldn't be the best option for tourists but it serves congresspeople very well with what it offers.
