Since its founding in 1973, Mercure has made it its mission to enlighten guests to the treasures of the location they are in. The network prides itself on offering high-quality standards with a true take on locality. From the moment guests arrive – in one of our 950+ Hotels across 60+ countries – they are instantly immersed in a locally inspired atmosphere. Everything from the decorative design to a passion for local food and beverage discoveries is rooted in the unique features of each destination.
