Hôtel Mercure Brive

There is not much wrong but the trouble with staying on a Sunday evening is that it is very quiet (restaurant is shut). But, nevermind, the bar was open and we were able to get a drink before eating out at restaurant very close by. The first issue was that my red wine was stale/corked as it came from an open bottle. I pointed this out and the lady was very reluctant to open another bottle. It seemed like she did not beleive me! Our room was comfortable enough but the hotel needs a refurb. It was just a little bit tired with peeling paint in the bathroom and old flooring etc etc. We use Accor hotels a lot - this one needs some work.

Good situation, in nice surroundings, close to A20 but no road noise either inside or out on the terrace or in the pool. Very attentive front of house staff with pleasant attitudes. Good English used when necessary. Room was adequate in size and well serviced by the domestic staff. No drawers for clothing so you live out of your suitcase which isn’t great if staying several days. Restaurant and bar very good although lunch and evening meal every day was the same menu. Hey Brive has loads of cafes and restaurants! Would I stay again? Yes most definitely.

Where were the staff? We tried to check in at 4.00 pm but there were not staff anywhere. We rang the buzzer several times and after 15 minutes, one staff member turned up. A sort of apology to the effect that her buzzer receiver was not responding to the Reception one. She also seemed to be the only staff member around until just before the restaurant opened at 7.00 pm, when several restaurant staff arrived. We had stayed at this hotel many years ago and had forgotten how small the rooms were. As Gold members of ACCOR, we were upgraded to a privilege room, but same size as ever other room but we did have a Nespresso machine which we never use! The pillows were either hard as rock or as flat as can be, most uncomfortable all round. IBIS and Campanile rooms are about the same size as these and half the price. it was particularly disappointing because the previous night we had stayed at Val de Reuill Mercure, near Rouen and what a difference. No comparison at all, just as different as chalk and cheese.

We were so frustrated by recent experiences at Novotels we were wondering where to stay on our journeys through France. We have passed so many dilapidated or closed hotels the choice seems to be getting smaller each year. A chance view from Autoroute A20 passing Brive la Gaillarde saw this Mercure . We immediately booked it for the return journey. What a absolute gem this hotel is. Visible from J50 A20 yet with quadruple glazing and set in a beautiful park you could be anywhere. Rooms are very comfortable and better than current Novotels. The staff are very professional and know what they are doing. The kitchen produces a tempting menu of delightful food; fresh and full of taste. The wine list, whilst compact, offered excellent choice. And for all you EV drivers there is a forest of charging points. This is our new stopping off point between Saint Malo and the southern Cevennes. Book now you won’t be disappointed. PS make sure the address is in satnav as the route from junction 50 is a little complicated but worthwhile.

we stop regularly at the Mercure Brive Hotel and we appreciate the consistent quality of services (reception welcome, room comfort and quietness) as well as the quality of breakfast. sorry, but the request of min 200 characters is very strange !

Les 3 dernières fois ou je suis venu le cuisinier a mis de la viande dans les plats pourtant annoncés végétariens sur la carte. Je suis sincèrement scandalisé. Une erreur une fois je veux bien l'entendre. Mais 3 fois d'affilé c'est inadmissible.

Cet hotel Mercure Brive ne mérite absolument pas les 4 étoiles revendiquées. La chambre attribuée au 1er etage était petite avec un mobilier et un aménagement désuets tres décevants qui nécessiterait une renovation. La vue sur le parking et l'autoroute avec ses incessants passages de poids lourds et voitures est glauque. Une odeur nauséabonde sévissait dans l'escalier d'accès aux étages de l'hotel. Le buffet petit-déjeuner s'avéra mediocre. En synthèse j'ai regretté d'avoir réservé dans ce lamentable hotel du groupe Accor qui décrédibilise la marque Mercure. Un hotel à éviter si vous séjournez à Brive-la-Gaillarde

Qualité hôtelière très moyenne. N’est pas au niveau d’un Mercure Accor. Très vieux et pas du rout rénové. Un retour dans les années 80. Aucune rénovation prévue. Chambres côté parking incroyablement proches de l’autoroute et le tout assez bruyant. Petit déjeuner tout à fait correct par contre. Équipe à l’accueil le soir dame + monsieur très aimable et gentils + pros. Très mauvais rapport qualité prix. Beaucoup trop cher pour la prestation. Une grande déception.

Hôtel étape sur la route des vacances. Nous avions une suite, état correct même si un rafraîchissement s’avère nécessaire. Il y avait de l’espace et c’était plus ou moins propre. L’hôtel doit être rénové, les couloirs laissant penser à un taudis plus qu’à un hôtel. Moquette sale, murs délavés. Façades fades. Accueil moyen et disponibilité du personnel très limité, parfois seul pour gérer le bar, la réception et j’en passe. Le grand plus de l’hôtel : son coin piscine très bien aménagé ! L’eau était bonne, la piscine propre !
