Pros:

Breakfast was included in the tariff and was delicious. The location is very central and easy to walk to town. Room was spacious and bathroom newly refurbished and clean. Good shower pressure.

Cons:

The windows could be opened which was good, but being old and single glazed did let in a bit of road noise.
We felt the bed was not comfortable and didn't sleep well. But those where the only two things we found fault with

Mercure Tauranga
Pros:

Great location , nicely renovated , good valve and friendly staff but very disappointing after looking forward to a nice meal and after making our choice from the menu in our room we discovered that most of the meals weren’t available from Friday to Sunday .There was no mention of this on the menu .Also very disappointing that the hotel does not have sky and not available to watch any of the sports we had hoped to watch .Once again there was no mention of the sky being unavailable. Had we known we may have booked another accommodation.
