This is the poshest hotel in Bourges, located near the historic center and situated in an old abbey. You will notice it by the number of foreign visitors staying there. There is some ground parking on site with access from streets on either side of this large building. The lobby is large, with space for seats and lounge, a bar... More

Good location within easy walk of the centre. Parking on site as well. Rooms are ok but a little dated. We didn't eat there or have breakfast there as looked a bit pricey. 18 euro for breakfast per head.

Interesting building with thick stone walls and tall hallway, which if on the 3rd floor as I was, you can get great views from the mezzanine. Room was small though, and very dated. Breakfast is just continental, so a little overpriced.

This Mercure is out of the ordinary when compared to other hotels in the chain. We used it as a halting point en route from the south of France to Cherbourg and found it a pleasant place to spend a night. It's reasonably easy to find in the center of Bourges and offers good off-street parking. The rooms are small... More

A very agreeable stay in all respects. Being able to park in the courtyard right outside the hotel is a boon. The hotel should provide proper driving instructions- the map alone does not do it, nor tell you how to get to the hotel from the motorway which is pretty difficult if you don't have a satnav.. The smart restaurant... More

.I'm a little confused as to what pushes a hotel from 3-star to 4-star. From the outside, the hotel looks gorgeous, dominated by a huge round tower. I suppose if it was 4-star, someone would have come running out to help us in with our bags and our dog, always a tricky balancing act. But inside, reception was very friendly... More

Ignore this hotel on Monday's as the restaurant is closed (the only reason to justify room price) and the bar was closed on our return at 10pm from the restaurant, where it seems, all the hotel's guest had been directed!!

Not a typical Mercure Hotel in design or restaurant options. Hotel and rooms good. However, one usually uses a Mercure due to its location, price and easy restaurant dining options and prices. the only restaurant option is fine dining. The dinning room is a stunning great hall but does anyone look to a Mercure for a culinary experience? The websie... More

Easily findable from the autoroutes and ideally suited for visiting the centre and medieval tourist attractions this hotel is not expensive and quite comfortable, with enough easy parking and a garden in which to relax over a drink or two.
