Congress Hotel Weimar by Mercure

Spacious, pool and sauna, breakfast buffet

Pool was too cold and my son cut his foot on a jagged tile, one elevator not working and lots of hotel furniture and sheets etc just piled up in the hallway, breakfast buffet was cheaper when booked there on the day than prebooked, the room cleaning booking system wasn’t explained to us, parking in hotel car park costs money

The location, staff and hotel itself were really nice - it's in a quiet part of Weimar Legefeld, so if you're looking for a little escapade, it's great. Breakfast is a good choice and we had a good offer of 5 Euros cheaper than the normal price, so it was worth it. Supermarket/grocery shopping (2 options) within 5 mins walking distance, so it's a nice walk to relax and get something for the room too. The Greek restaurant (El Grecco) serves good food at an acceptable price and 2 mins away on foot from the hotel. Bus stop is right outside the hotel (bus schedule available in the hotel lobby).

Sauna is opened late. I had chosen this hotel specifically because I wanted the sauna during my stay, but as it turns out, we didn't even get to use it because it only opened about 16:00. So after breakfast/lunch, there really isn't much to do except laze at the pool. I would have liked the sauna to be available right after lunch so as residing guests, we could enjoy it before the next batch of guests check in, but no such luck. In the end, we paid to go the Saunabad 15 mins away. Also, the housekeeping staff are very noisy in the mornings when they clean rooms. They talk very loudly in the corridor and woke us up every morning.

Location and access ability

Last renovation feels like 1980. Shower was leaking into the bathroom.Very used appliances

24 hour reception QuietBreakfast good

For breakfast, mixed fruit that is freshly made, and forest fruits would make for a Superb rating!

We had a suite so there was plenty of space.

It was shabby especially the public areas. The restaurant was a buffet with limited selection so no menu to choose from.

Swimming pool, and location close to motorway

There was no Air Conditioning in the room. In case of hot summer it would be problematic

Friendly staff, very good location, quiet area.

Very old elevators that took a long time to arrive.

Very nice and kind staff, We used to use this place for several times in past years. Good location and facilities, good fresh food. Size for the room enough for family for one/ two nights.Good size beds only sorry to say mattress are horrible..all family woke up crippled with back pain.Half of night I spent on the floor..lol.

Mattresses on bed uncomfortable smoking people on main entrance and all smoke goes inside above roomsDirty tiles in bathroom ( ask your cleanera use bleach and limescale remover! )

Hotel is.comfortable and quiet. The room.was big. Sweeming pool and sauna pleasant place for the rest. 15 minutes to the Weimer city. Breakfast is also acceptable, good coffee :). Recomended from my side.Thank you

Good price / facility and price /location value. The place is quite and nice. All facilities in the room were provided and nice.

Unfortunately in my room the switch between the shower and the bath worked not all the time and stocked sometimes. These days the repair is on the roof is ongoing, which could cause smell in rooms or a bit of a noise.

convenient location close to Weimar but outside the city center, plenty of parking

all a bit dated but ok for the price

I like the place, and the atmosphere.

The staff, I came to visit the place because I liked it, but when I arrived in the morning, and they had rooms, the staff looked at me like they didn't have room, and should I come at 15:00 PM, but my reservation was at 07:00-08:00 AM. Is not my problem that I get this confirmation.Next time I will speak with the manager and get a clarification. For example, (You come to my store after you find something online on my shop, and you reserve to pick up the product at 07:00 or 08:00, and the company confirms, and when you arrive to take it I start to say, [No, come in 8 hours] even I have my products in the back and I can give it).I understand the frustration but a job is a job, you do what you must to, not to be negative and impulsive.Thank you.

Big rooms, great breakfast.

Could be a bit cleaner, and not all the lamps in the room were working.

The location, the price, the size of the room and a very nice balcony.

Unfortunately no air conditioning. The parking is not free, always fingers crossed to find a place next to the hotel. Additionnal little tax to pay. (For the culture, not sure…)

Only breakfast and swimming pool was ok

Dirty , mouldy bathroom, dust in some places at room. No soap in the bathroom ( I asked at reception but housekeeper didn't bring it at all!!). Instruction in German only!!!Some receptionist can't understand English clearly.Paid special extra for" city tax" which I understood if for special air which we got as constant smoke cigarettes people smoke at entrance and we couldn't open the windows.

location is in quite and calm location

carpet in whole property was smelly. it is not regularly maintained. there was water leaking in mat beside our bed. not sure from where it was leaking.
