Merchant City Inn Reviews
Based on 16 Hotel ReviewsStaying at The Merchant City Inn was lovely. Receptionist was very friendly and helpful and the room was nice and cosy. Noise from outside wasn't too bad, so had a good nights sleep. Would definitely stay again
Good location. Accomodation ok in all respects
Friendly staff, very good location near all shops and restaurants and near train station. Nice breakfast. I recommend it to my friends. Architecture is fab
Very nice hotel, comfortable rooms, at a reasonable price. Also staff are very helpful. A big negative factor, however, is the night club on the other side of the street which on one of my nights was busy until past 3am
The hotel was clean and comfortable and ideally situated in the heart of the city. The rate was reasonable and the breakfast was excellent.
