There were no blankets in rooms so you have to use heaters. Not enough staff on for bar service , service took along time, staff were lovely buy she was run off her feet the whole night. Tv reception is not good. No seating in outdoor/garden areas so you have to sit at pool.

A really good stay

I could have easily added a few extra days on to my stay at this hotel. It was ideally located, the room well appointed. The staff were attentive, although i did feel some of the more newer staff could have done with more training., otherwise, it was a perfect stay...

A great place to stay in Alice Springs

Mercure Resort was a lovely place to stay. The room was spacious, clean and comfortable. The reception staff went out of their way to be helpful. The resort is an easy walk to town. The WiFi was spotty at times. And I wish the food offerings at breakfast were hotter. But I would definitely recommend this resort.
