Booked an overnight spa package with bed, breakfast, evening meal and one spa treatment included.
Our room was large with 2 double beds and was spotless. The beds were really comfy. The food was really good, we had lunch, evening meal and breakfast and all meals were lovely. The waiting on staff were very polite and friendly. The spa treatments we had were luxurious and very relaxing. All the staff are so friendly, really welcoming and helpful.
The only one issue we had was as there was only one bar open, it was very busy in the evening and no tables left to sit at after our evening meal. There was another bar area but this was closed (maybe due to COVID?). Would definitely recommend and would love to come back sometime for another spa break as we really enjoyed our stay. Thank you.

We were on a coach tour and stayed here for four nights. We were allocated room 8 which overlooked the front of the hotel.
The room was very clean, bed was comfortable with a Ute TV on the wall. The walk in shower was also very good.
A special mention of the resident magician Resh, he was brilliant!

I enjoyed my stay and would stay again. It wasn't perfect but any problems were quickly sorted. All the people working at the hotel were nice and very helpful. We had two evening meal in the hotel restaurant. The first night was very busy but service was good. The steaks we ordered were undercooked. My wife sent hers back and it was still undercooked! The price of our meal was reduced to compensate us and we were happy with this. Breakfast was very nicely cooked using good quality ingredients.
The room had recently been refurbished and had some issues. Cupboard doors were badly fitted and fridge had been put in a cupboard, so did not work. I took the fridge out of the cupboard and it worked great. Very quiet and cool. We used the swimming pool twice and had a good experience. Some work was being carried out and because of this, there was some issues with dust.

We stayed here for one night to attend a wedding in the area, the room was gorgeous! Large room, comfy bed, large TV. Bathroom let it down a tad as it didn't fit in with the refurbished room but all clean and served its purpose. The staff at the hotel were really helpful and polite. However there are four security staff milling around in the driveway who stop your car and ask for a pass before allowing you into the carpark. We wasn't told about this so we explained we didn't have one. The security just kept saying pass at us instead of explaining we could show a key card or booking confirmation. One became quite abrupt and rude as we tried to get signal to show our booking online. He eventually told us to drive in-without the proof of booking because he basically got sick of waiting. It's quite intimidating driving up to have security stand round your car and tell you the hotel needs security but not explain why, without warning when booking ect. As we waiting for a cab to take us to the wedding they also had an altercation with another cab driver dropping a guest off who got out and calmly told them how rude and obnoxious they were to him and his passenger. I'd love to know why they're there in the first place. Not even in a uniform, just their own clothes. Very odd. Breakfast was lovely and plentyful, and the restaurant is beautiful. On a side note if you need a cab, Google your own as the hotel rang one that was 40mins late and charged double what our cab back charged. Obviously not the hotel's fault but may be a helpful tip to someone else in our position. Didn't use the spa so can't comment on that.

The hotel was really nice. Hotel staff were splendid and professional. The downside though I wasn't told to register my car so expecting a parking fine anytime soon. Though I was assured it would be cancelled

A Charming character filled residence!!
We certainly felt privileged in a privilege room, and experience customer service but I’m afraid to say it’s quite rare these days in the United Kingdom, but it felt quite normal in this hotel.

We held a work function here on 17/9.
The room was lovely, the drinks, food and service were all excellent.
It’s a great location and we were all really well looked after. We would recommend and we definitely will return later this year. Thank You

A little tired in places but good value for money when bought as part of a dinner B&B package. The evening meal was pleasant and filling, breakfast was a little underwhelming but for the price would definitely recommend a stay here if you are in the area. Rooms comfortable albeit simple and empty of any extras (may be due to covid)
Overall a cheap, cheerful and comfortable Hotel

I booked our 4 night break through Groupon on a 4 night Dinner Bed & Breakfast offer & it was good value for the money, however I would not recommend if you are wheelchair dependent as my wife is, if I had not been with my wife she would not have managed to get through the doors to her room even though we were on the ground floor ( Room 515 ) pull & push doors. However I must say that our room was wonderful & the view out was beautiful. We must say a special thankyou to Sara restaurant supervisor on our first 2 nights absolutely FANTASTIC & her team were just as good. The menu on our first 2 nights was though a little limited in choice it was first class in quality, presentation, flavours & the service was excellent . Our next 2 nights dinner had a change of menu & more fast food chain selection than HOTEL restaurant standard however the staff members serving did a great job with a limited menu. Only complaint was my wife did say her gammon was served cold, the floor manager did offer to cancel the charge for our sweet. It is said your day starts at breakfast while take my word for it that is not the case at The Mercure Blackburn. I had 23 years of buffet type breakfast in Her Majesty's Armed Forces British Army & it did not get any better at The Mercure. I would not recommend paying for breakfast if a local Café is close by use it. One appreciates that we are blaming truck drivers for the supply chain but to be 4 nights without Draught Stella Artois our stay Monday To Friday is a little bit of blame shaming. The best part of our stay was made by the efforts 3 suburb members of staff. SARA Restaurant. Ben Bar, Employee Of The Month well worth the award just Superb & Alison Housekeeping well done & thankyou to everyone, however we will not be back. Ken & Marie Room 515

Spacious comfortable room. Very friendly staff: Krishna, Sara, Christopher and Olivia in the restaurant were particularly attentive; the ladies at reception were very helpful and charming; and Callum at the bar was also very friendly. Dinner was excellent both nights, in fact better than we expected. I am not giving the best rating for only one reason: there was a party going on with very loud music late into our second night, in one of the reception rooms near us, which is not exactly conducive to a restful sleep. Other than that we had a lovely weekend and felt really welcome and looked after!
