Hotel is in a good location, rooms are clean but water for showers and toilet was very low pressure and sometimes didn’t work at all. We spoke to the reception about it and it appeared to be a normal thing and told to wait 30 mins it should get better, which it did but if your on a time schedule you could have an issue. I’m sure it was a stellar hotel in its day.

Staff was great. Room looked a little different than pics but overall we had a great experience. Service was great. A little old school with the actual room keys instead digital cards but I kinda liked that. Food at the restaurant was great, and the continental breakfast and coffee were outstanding.

For our overnight stay before our cruise we wanted somewhere close to the port. This hotel was budget friendly and a great location option. You could tell that the hotel had been around for awhile. It was clean and quaint but there were no modern upgrades to the face or entryway. My husband and the driver laughed at the fact that he had to self serve by grabbing a trolly to unload the luggage from the taxi. The process for checkin was short and seamless. The staff at the counter were very nice and accomodating. They assisted us with contacting taxi services to take us to and from the city centre of Civitacchia and also to the cruise port on the day of embarkation. The elevator didnt seem fully functional. It was very old and could only fit two people at a time. Thankfully, they gave us a room on the first floor so my son and I were able to walk up to meet the elevator that held the trolly with our bags.The staircase leading to the room was dark and the lights in the corridors were very dimmly lit and seem to operate on a sensor. It was a little creepy entering and exiting the room but for the most part we did not feel unsafe. The room and bathroom was clean and spacious...but again, we could tell that not much had been done to upgrade the aesthetics except for the wall paint and design. So anyone looking at pictures posted should manage their expectations. The breakfast buffet was small. Overall I would say its a decent option for short term stay i.e.3 nights max.

AC didn’t work. Shower caused flooding in the bathroom that went out into the hall. Clearly not the first time since the wood door was rotten as were the baseboards in the hall. Broken tiles, mold, missing plaster, holes in wall, bird poop all over the patio, twin beds moved together to make king that separated during sleep, half used soap in bathroom. The view is beautiful and the people were kind. Would not stay here again.

This Hotel must have been something way back in the 70s or maybe 80s but right now it's a rundown derelict with very few positives. The sorry situation is compounded by a very unhelpful front desk personnel who wouldn't even help provide options for guests who were stranded without transportation not to talk of even providing drinking water for a family with kids. Our stay there was altogether something that must not be allowed to reoccur.

First the positives - the views are fantastic and the staff was very pleasant & helpful. That was where the positives stopped for me. The property is in need of repair. Doors don't open or close correctly, windows and shutters have similar issues. The shower was dirty and really small. It is a place that was inexpensive and you get what you pay for here.

Hotel with no smily faces… but Lovely view outside

Was at work 2 days - personel no service, no smiles, very bad english except the one in reseption. They advertice a pool, but you have to pay 10 € to enter Even as a hotel guest. No water at room, no food to buy or help Where to buy it… 20 € each time you want to go to Town, no pick up service. Difficult to book taxi for them in the morning for early train to AirPort …

There is no way that this is a 4 star hotel and don't be duped by the Mercure in its name. Starting with the positives our room was spacious and had a great view with a nice balcony. The meal we had in the restaurant was good.The staff were helpful and organised taxis for us. However the hotel is more like a B&B in terms of facilities. The bar has very limited hours and trying to get a simple thing like a coffee was impossible for most of the day and there were no facilities in the room to make one. Breakfast was Ok if you are happy with pastries and cereals and the only hot food available was luke warm scrambled egg and bacon. The hotel is isolated in an area with no shops and limited restaurants. It did us for an overnight stay but I will not be going back.

Avoid at all cost.

Quite possibly one of the worst hotel stay’s ever. Dirty everything, unfriendly staff, the place was falling apart and the surfaces of everything we touched seemed dirty. Stains, bleach smell, hairs, mold, yuk - not worth 1 star. A real shame as this seemed like a wonderful hotel 20 years ago. A horrible representation of the Mercure Hotel brand. We were afraid to sleep in the bed after seeing all the stains. I’ll be writing to Mecure directly and Hotels dot com for a refund - this place needs to be truthfully reported. 1 star until they fix it up.
We had high expectations

Do not stay at this property if you want a good nights rest or two even! There is a Rave nextvdoorcwhich played both nights until 2 to 3 am each night. The hotel didnt do anything to inform us at all about it. We had no sleep both nights especially since we did an all nighter flight from Canada. We will be looking into a refund shortly.
