Comfortable weekend stay in Bendigo at the Mercure
Pros:

We really enjoyed our 3 night stay at the Mercure in Bendigo. Comfortable room, very well set up with innovative cupboard space, shelving & drawers for room size. Hotel is so colourful & eclectic. We loved it. Makes you feel bright n bubbly & happy. Great location. Safe & secure. Staff absolutely amazing. Breakfast, Cafe, Evening drinks & dinner we highly recommend. Fantastic quality, tasteful, great portions, fresh & many options. Awesome hotel to sit & relax in the lounge & dining areas, chatting to fellow guests in a very comfortable, bright setting. We will be back. 👌🤩🙌 Brilliant value for Accor members. Thank you.

Really helped reset my bad mood :)
Pros:

I ordered a coffee, a couple rum balls of some kind, and a lamb burrito to take to my mother. Atmosphere was so warm and cosy, I woke up on the wrong side of the bed but it really recalibrated me. Staff was soooo kind, I forgot to thank them. I hope they see this :( thank you so much for the lovely experience.
