Too good to be true!

Upon arriving I was impressed with the hotel apperance and staff upon check in. Once I checked into my room #210 and unpacked I found a couple of things the hotel overlooked. The toilet was not operating, shower had no hot water, cable tv malfunctioned, and there was no light at the desk to write a letter. I contacted the front desk and they sent somebody to fix it, but it was without success. I was unpacked and tired from my long trip from New York and wanted to rest. Now I was assigned to room #512 and it was a little better. The toilet cover had an inspection seal that met hotel guidelines. I feel that a nice hotel like this should've not overlooked these important features. I was not totally satisfied and left the following day to another hotel. I felt Ithat I should've been compensated for the inconvinience as these things happen in hotels with lower standards.

A member of the Accor group, the Grand Mercure offers rooms as good or better than the Hilton or Marriott. It is located in an excellent location on the main drag. Superb beds, good showers. Ask for a room high up to get away from the street noise. Extremely friendly front desk staff. Free Internet station.

Tip: the in-house restaurant is just okay, but the inside-outside snack bar lets you grab something to eat and drink while walking the main boulevard.

I actually found this hotel to be very nice. The room I had was a suite and the bed was so comfortable I wanted to spend another night. The staff was pleasant and helpful. The location is good too. Highly recommend.

Grand Hotel Mercure Alameda Quito

We were struck by the beautiful lobby as we entered. The top portion was covered in giant photos of Ecuador, black and white, very tastefully done.


Lobby
We appreciated the free Internet service and extensive breakfast buffet (included in the hotel room price). The food was delicious.

The rooms were extremely clean and comfortable. Our room had a sitting room with a dining table, refrigerator and couch, and a large TV and large and comfortable king-sized bed, which was turned down at night with chocolates.

 
bedroom
We used the safe in the room, as we had been warned to do so, but we did not feel unsafe for a minute in this hotel.

It can be quite noisy on the weekends, as the Ecuadorians definitely know how to enjoy life. We were on the 9th floor, and the noise came up to our level. But I don't think any hotel in the area would have been quieter, and it didn't bother my husband at all.

The staff were first-rate, courteous, and brought new meaning to the words "customer service". When my husband was ill from the altitude, they sent up some mate de coca tea, which really helped him. All in all, it's a wonderful and comfortable place to stay. You won't go wrong here!
