My sister & I visited the hotel today 1st November 2023 to have lunch in the bar area.
I just have to say that IRENE gave us excellent service, she was so attentive & lovely waiting on us & making sure everything was just right for us.
Hey forget all these fancy coffee shops , you honestly get better service at the Mercure hotel & especially if Irene is working , she really does look after you!!
She & the hotel definitely deserve 5*****
Well done & thank you Irene 😀👏👏

I went to the ladies night event on 4 November, what a great night it was!!
The drag queen had us all in stitches and Male entertainers certainly didn't let us down!! A super friendly welcoming place.
Great bar service too, all set in a beautiful setting of this gorgeous hotel.
Can't wait for the next event.

Good points: Central location, parking and good gym facilities.
The rooms are dated it must be said, probably soon due a Holiday Inn makeover, however they were clean and tidy as you'd expect.
I did arrive early and they found me a room with ease which was helpful and appreciated.
The gym facilities have basic equipment but a great view to keep you motivated. It's open until late so there's no excuse to not burn off the days coffee and biscuit intake.
Great to have parking and also a short walk into the centre and St Georges shopping centre.
Breakfast was great, good selection and a nice sized breakfast area.
Staff were helpful, warm and welcoming. Will be staying again when in Preston.

Me and my boyfriend booked this last minute just to get away for a night, when we arrived our room was a twin very dated really in need of a refurb, when approached Hannah on reception she explained that we had just booked a standard room and there wasn't any double rooms available as she was explaining it to us she was very rude, had a really bad attitude, we ordered room service and the guy that brought it for us came with a smile and could not do enough for us his name was Thomas it was nice to see him and for him to smile as our welcome at reception was not good, we made the most of our stay as much as possible,bathroom very small, couldn't of stayed for more than one night here.

Although very close to a number of very busy roads and very much in the center of things we found it quiet. We were part of a coach trip to Scotland and it was just an overnight stay. The staff were very helpful and our room was fine with every thing that you would need for a longer stay. The food was very good having both an evening meal and also breakfast. I would use this hotel again.

Helpful friendly welcoming staff making our stay very pleasant. Situated in very near to Preston town centre with limited parking (though there is ample public parking nearby)
We stayed on 7th floor so a bit of traffic noise from the ring road below but nice views across Preston......
The best feature for us was to have a real choice of TWO, yes, two interesting and very tasty vegetarian main courses in the restaurant. (They were NOT the usual vegetarian lasagne or mushroom risotto)
Only downside was our room on the 7th floor, which was a bit tired with scrubby carpets and with peeling veneer on the surface tops.
Recommended.

Pleasant room on the top floor with great views. Comfortable bed. Just what you'd expect.
All the staff were friendly and efficient and seemed pleased to see us - not really like a "chain" hotel at all!
But the star of the show must be the chef. Overall standard of food was excellent at the 1 breakfast and 2 lunches we had - but within that, three real winners:
fresh, real, hand-cut grapefruit segments and fruit salad at breakfast;
good, proper ham in a ham and cheese panini;
and the special of the day wasn't available for our early lunch because he hadn't cooked it yet - a really good sign! Very impressive for a hotel of this sort.
We were really pleased we stayed there.

Absolutely lovely place to stay the staff were all friendly and very helpful and had a good sense of humour. Breakfast was out of this world well and truly worth the price! Very clean too. A big 👍 from me. Also very near and easy to get to night entertainment, restaurants plenty to go too & all friendly. We also spent a day in Blackpool only a twenty odd minutes drive or catch a bus if you don't want to drive. Defiantly worth a visit plenty to do and see..

Booked here for August Bank Holiday weekend to visit friends who live locally. All staff were a pleasure to meet and the Chef delivered high class food at each request. Yes the view might not be great, but what can be expected from a city centre hotel? Noise levels from traffic were not a problem. The closeness to the amenities more than makes up for that. Rooms a little dated, but clean and tidy.

Central location, nestling close by the 'interesting' architecture of Preston Bus Station and Guildhall.
Interesting room too, with Japanese-style sliding window shutters in place of curtains and comfortable enough, if a little dated.
Very pleasant and helpful staff and good and good-value breakfast, marred only by the dark hot watery and rather unpleasant liquid served as coffee. But that's not particularly unusual in most UK hotels.
All in all, based on our stay, amply deserves a 'very good' rating
