This hotel was a good value and in a wonderful location. If you're expecting a 1st class hotel you'll be disappointed. The sheets were fresh and clean and the room was comfortable. There was some grime on the light switches and here and there, but it's not a 1st world country or a 4 star hotel. The staff was friendly and helpful, and the breakfast buffet was wonderful! The hotel dining room was good, but a bit expensive.
I would recommend it for my not so picky friends, and I woud go back if I'm ever in the DR again. Probably will not be going back though. Not a lot to do there, and I feel ripped off paying an entry fee of $10.00 each and an exit fee of $20.00. If they want to attract tourism, they need to get a clue about that kind of thing, and also clean up their beaches in Santo Domingo. The trash was unbelieveable.

Very satisfying: Rooms small but clean, Shower great.front desk excellent, Breakfast buffet outstanding superior to a ship. Attitude of mercure hotel staff was excellent and this really showed up with the head waiter and his staff. I could not have been more pleased. I usually cruise and will do so again but this triip proved to me I could fly to a place, stay, eat, then fly home .
The dominican people were very pleasant .
Friendly employees but facility has lots to be desired

I stayed for 10 days in August, the air conditioner leaked in the room, maintenance claimed was condensation and not repairable, front desk staff friendly and accomodating with room change however all rooms seem to have same problem, when arrived home all my clothing smelled like mildew including my pillow I brough along, the door knob to the bathroom came off in my hand, and the showers are absolutely dangerous, Veeery slippery, the food in the resteraunt was cold and not very tasty, however the included breakfast made up for that. Faclility claims recent upgrade but I cannot see how.
The staff in the restaurant were WONDERFUL, this facility has superb employees and this hotel would benefit from raising the standard of what they offer to match their superb staff. I would not stay again but would visit the staff in the restaurant for cocktails only.
It is an OK hotel but am sure there are better for the money, they certainly do not offer what you pay for.
WOULD STAY AGAIN AND VERY A BEAUTIFUL HOTEL

NEVER DISAPPOINTED

I have stayed at the Mercure several times and I've never been disappointed. The service is always friendly and usually prompt. I just love the location of the hotel, right on The Conde, it is one of the most exciting places to be in the city and it is close to monuments, shopping and the Malecon. The buffett breakfast, included in your stay, is a real treat before starting your day of sightseeing or shopping. Most of the front-desk staff speak some English. Because I'm a light sleeper I requested a room change once I realized my room overlooked the street. The staff moved me immediately and I slept like a baby the entire stay.
