The Mercer

So my husband has stayed here for over 30 days and I just joined him for the last four of those days. I think I would give a 3.5 versus 4, but since I can’t, I feel more appropriate with this review to round up versus round down.
Some things I think are great. Room was contemporary in feel, looks modern with slick finishes, lots of mirror and glass, cool colors. Our set up had a little kitchen with frig (bottled water supplied at no charge every day to that frig!), Nespresso maker (not to be confused with a coffee maker), microwave and tableware. Bathroom was large enough and bed was quite comfy.
The breakfast is great. Very fresh fruit and an assortment of breakfast items for every international pallet. But let me highlight the coffee. I am a black coffee with milk drinker and I think this might be the best I have ever had. Individual coffee drinks are made right there with their little machine by their supper attentive breakfast staff. I woke up every morning wanting a cup or two or three ASAP!
Some things that I thought were not so great. Our room seemed dusty. I noticed the cleaning details or there lack of. Our room was not dirty, but the attention to detail of wiping down a headboard or seeing the smudge was noticed by us. Also, the living room sitting high backed purple sofa although cool, not comfortable in the slightest.
No lobby, no bar, no restaurant, no fast extras.
The staff was welcoming and kind. They seemed grateful for the business and we’re glad we were there. Although I did not see the final bill, hotel was somewhere in the ball park of $ 200 – 300 per night. We enjoyed and would recommend.

Stayed here 4 days and it’s a great place. Very friendly staff, excellent breakfast, easy access to the MRT, shops, etc. not sure if it was the room we had, but complementary goodies in the fridge, sodas, beer, chips. If I come back to Hong Kong again, I would stay here.

A great little boutique hotel very close to MTR & walking distance to many sights. When you walk into the hotel there isn’t a lobby area. Just a reception desk with a couple of chairs, so guests visiting will not have anywhere to hang out if they are picking you up. All of the staff speak English, some better than others. No concierge service, so don’t expect a lot of help planning any activities. Staff will help if they can but a lot of times they looked like a deer caught in headlights when i asked a question. Luckily i’m pretty self sufficient and with free wifi you can always look up whatever you want on your phone or laptop if you have one. The hotel was clean & offered a lot of little amenities that made the place stand out. Free breakfast, free minibar, free wifi. small pool & workout room… can’t beat that! The breakfast room is small but nice. Not a huge selection but will definitely fill you up & get you ready for a day of sightseeing. It is a small buffet with a variety of western & eastern food. The only odd thing about the hotel room is the bathrooms in the bedroom are surrounded by glass doors so very little privacy. There are shades you can pull down but kind of a hassle. No problem if you don’t have privacy issues.
TIP: If you are a baller & have some cash to burn, there is a hidden Michelin rated Japanese restaurant (Sushi Shikon) inside the hotel.
