Stayed in a family room 29th, 30th December and 1st, 2nd January 2013.
Fantastic hotel, down to earth helpful staff especially Karl and Kristian who are a credit to this hotel.
Credit also due to the chefs we ate in the bar area on the return leg of our journey and on both occasions the food was faultless as was the breakfasts.
Great place to stay if you have a family as the pool area passes time with the kids.
Plenty of parking, overall great value for money and we will definitely be staying here again.
Message to Eric the manager turn the heating down and save yourself a few quid, you run a fantastic hotel and pass on our thanks to your staff.

We stayed in a family room, very spacious, double bed, single bed and a cot. We could see Reebok Stadium from our room and also Pennines. The pool and jacuzzi was very nice. We had breakfast at the hotel which was well worth the price, plenty to choose from. lots of free parking at rear of hotel. Bar prices were a little expensive. Staff very friendly and welcoming. Would definitely stay again.

The hotel is modern and has leisure facilities which was the main reason I chose the Georgian Mercure for a 1 night business trip to Bolton. My room was situated in the main building at the front, on floor 1. The decor is slightly dated with old fashioned, ill fitting wardrobes and drawers - see picture. The bed was very uncomfortable and you could easily feel the springs through the sheets. In conjunction with a dripping shower head (it wasn't possible to stop this), I didn't get a great nights sleep. The very low water pressure of the shower rendered it almost useless....not a great start to the day!!
The leisure facilities (pool area) were OK but had a number of faults. The pool isn't very big, the jacuzzi doesn't function as it should (i.e. the water jets are ineffective / don't work - a member sat next to me said "it's been like this for years,the hotel have done nothing to fix it"), the steam room didn't work (it's just a warm room with no steam!).
In common with most hotels food & drinks prices are set on the high side, which is to be expected. The food I ordered was generally of good quality, with a couple of let downs. The "jalapeño mushy peas" (served with the haddock & chips) turned out to be no more than standard garden peas and the chips were luke warm due to the silly pretentious wire basket they were suspended in! (If you suspend chips off the plate they are bound to go cold quickly!!).
On balance I wouldn't choose this hotel again if I stayed in Bolton. If you want leisure facilities choose the De Vere White (Football stadium). If you want a modern comfortable room and are not interested in leisure facilities, go for a Premier Inn.

Stayed here overnight and was ideal for our needs. Room was a good size, unfortunately bed wasn't! Can't believe hotels still have small double beds! Apart from that there was coffee/tea facilties (no biscuits), basic toiletries, tv and hairdryer.
Hotel is ideally situated for the M61. Gym well equipped and pool looks lovely, didn't have time to try them out.
Breakfast delicious and they made the effort to restock as needed.
Have stayed here before and would be happy to again.

Have stayed here a number of times and given it a good review
First time since change of ownership and was really disappointed with the ROOM
Shower pressure appalling, Beds need new mattresses as they feel they have a board in them
Toilets seat had been replaced and didn't fit
What a shame rest of Hotel and facilities seem the same good standard
For just a room Seems expensive and Premier appears better

A weekend of rest and relaxation brought us to this lovely modern hotel. We checked in at 11 am and were met by a very polite gentleman who explained the facilities in the hotel, answered any questions and gave us local information on places to eat or visit.
We went up 1 flight of steps from the modern airy reception to our executive double, with a massive double bed sitting area and bathroom with a large selection of toiletries
We had a bath and a shower and all the usual aspects a traveller wants.
Free wifi in the room was quick and never failed to load any pages.
There is a leisure club on site but we did not find time to indulge in this experience.
Breakfast was included in our rate, and this again was high quality and plentiful .
We will return and when we are in the area this will be our choice to stay- well done to all the staff for looking after us.
