I called the day before I booked a room to ensure as it stated online that all rooms are had air-conditioning due to the extreme weather at the time. I moved to 3 different rooms all the air-conditioning units were broken. Reception explained to me that all the other rooms that were currently empty all had air-conditioning issues. I was given a fan for the room that basically recirculated hot air. I was told I was free to arrange another hotel for the subsequent nights of my stay, no help at all.

The Expedia specific room was terrible. Peeling paint and wallpaper, nonfunctioning air conditioner and the windows were screwed shut. Additionally, I found a carpet bug in the bed... So gross. I give 2 stars instead of none because the staff were some of the loveliest people I have ever worked with. So kind, so considerate. I wish for their sake I could give a better score. Also, please note if you book the room through Expedia, then you have to pay to use the pools. Wish I knew that ahead of time as I would not have bothered.

Our stay at The Mercure Hotel, Haydock

Samantha, the Receptionist went out of her way to help us book a taxi on a very busy evening. Tom Jones was in Concert at Haydock Racecourse and we were heading there. All staff were very helpful in the restaurant. The room was very spacious and clean. Breakfast was very good. The Hotel was further away from the racetrack than I expected it to be. The older generation (like me 😊) and people with disabilities would be unable to walk there. Overall, we had a pleasant stay.

Generally satisfactory but hit by a choking chemical smell at the entrance. Bright airy eating area. Only one barmaid taking food & drink orders unable to do anything to reduce the growing queue. Corridors & room clean. Bed could do with a mattress cover - unyielding & a bit lumpy so I woke a few times - but did the job & I rose fresh in the morning. Shower great. Would return again if price is right. I’m a member of ALL but saved 6% on the app price by booking through hotels.com.

GOOD HOTEL, IF YOUR NOT USING THE GYM

Although this is a clean and comfortable Hotel, it is let down by the Leisure facilities it offers If you are booking based on having access to a gym and pool, then think again. The pool is verry small as are the changing rooms The changing toom is more like a coubord, and there is no dry floor anywhere, so you have to go back to your room bate foot.
