Mercure Kings Darlington, Cocktail Bar

Been using this hotel on and off for a number of years and I always find it very conveniently located in the town centre. I don't really make use of any of their facilities as I just hardly coming to sleep but rooms are fine.

As I said,better than sleeping on the street in January. If it was may ,June I'd ruff it. No hot water, little tea,little sugar, no water had to buy it for godsake It was clean,warm, personally I wouldn't stay anywhere, you can't smoke ,it's all rules and regulations. But that's the childlike society we live in now. Pathetic.

i find it insane that the company Mercure would put their name to this. this is clearly an old hotel the Mercure company have bought and made a terrible attempt to refurbish it. it would have been easier to just knock it down and start again. the floors are creaky, hot running water is almost non-existent, old decor, old lifts, etc etc. there is no air con. the only saving grace (in the winter), was the radiator actually works very well. the only plus is that the guy on reception was very friendly and helpful, and the hotels location is close to the station. don't let the fact that is a "Mercure" hotel fool you. i'm very suspicious of the 4+ star ratings......
