Dortmund Mercure is a typical business hotel with minimum frills. It’s more appropriate for solo travelers but the bed and room can be comfortable for couples. The breakfast is uninspiring but still worth it if you’re booking the room at a good price. Front staff are efficient and the location is close to the trains and the high street. The lobby is quite comfortable too. Take note that the entrance is a bit hard to find and you have to take a lift to check in.

Close to the main station about 7 minutes walk. Secure at night and sometimes offer late check outs when it’s not too busy for those with very late flights which is one of the main reasons why I keep going back. A bit out dated on the decor but it’s ok for the price.

In the city center, it is convenient for eating and shopping, but it is inconvenient for parking. They don't have their own parking lot. The room doesn't have a good view, but the room is very clean and the service staff are very warm and friendly.

The hotel is in a good location, a 10-minute walk from the train station and there are many supermarkets nearby. The hotel environment is also good👍

The good thing is that it was clean. This hotel is were you go when your company books your trip. It is not a good place but adequate. It is worn, there are no power outlets near the beds and there is very little sound isolation towards the road. The main entrance might be confused with an out of sight rear staircase.
Response from Property: Dear Karle, Thank you for your review. We're glad to hear that the cleanliness of our establishment met your expectations. It's also pleasing to know our location proved convenient for your needs, being situated at the heart of the city with easy access to local sights and transport. We regret to hear that the soundproofing did not meet your expectations; however, we would like to clarify that our accommodations are designed with double glazing windows to provide a more quiet and comfortable environment. We apologize if this was not your experience. Additionally, while we do not have power outlets right by the bed, we strive to provide all necessary amenities for a comfortable stay, including air conditioning and free Wi-Fi. We appreciate your feedback on the appearance of our main entrance, and we continuously work on maintaining and improving the aesthetics of our hotel. It would be a pleasure to welcome you again. Best regards, Ihr Team vom Mercure Hotel Dortmund City

I visited this hotel for the first time as my usual one (cheap - cold, but bish bash bosh you know what you are getting was sold out). I won't return! The location feels dodgy and not safe at night - the openly visible rat traps everywhere on the pavement speak volumes - the shopping centre next door is near abandoned. Was left waiting for ages to check in. Room basic and really not user-friendly. Hardly any plug sockets which made it hard to work on laptop. Felt very much also that single people second class - I d like a couple of pillows to snuggle up with, most good hotels will offer. Telling no one ever asked if I had a comfortable stay - don't think anyone cares.
Response from Property: Dear Almut, Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We're concerned to hear about your perception of the surrounding area at night; however, our guests' safety is a priority, and we are located in the vibrant heart of the city with various attractions within walking distance. We understand the importance of a comfortable work environment, so we'd like to highlight that our rooms come equipped with a desk and high-speed internet, though we regret to hear about the insufficient number of plug sockets. Our hotel aims to cater to all guests, including those staying alone, and while we usually provide one pillow per person, additional pillows can be requested at reception. We are also sorry if our service did not meet your expectations, as our team strives to ensure every guest feels cared for during their stay. The entire team really hope we can welcome you back on a future occasion. Kindest regards, Ihr Team vom Mercure Hotel Dortmund City

Good location but otherwise tired old hotel, long overdue complete refurbishment. Faded carpets and pictures in the halls. No fridge in standard rooms "to save the planet," but apparently, superior room occupants are not so concerned. No safe in rooms. Bathroom with green and gold coloured tiles from the 70's/80's had cracked floor tiles with blackened grout from years of water on the floor. Glasses on request, but they wouldn't deliver to room. Body cream on request was so old that it had liquefied. Rooms are only cleaned on request, and they don't tell you that on the reservation or at check-in. Then chambermaid knocked and opened door without waiting, despite "DO NOT DISTURB" sign. Very poor breakfast with basic rolls and cheese/ham; allegedly broken toaster miraculously reappeared after two days of complaints but still had to ask for bread. You cannot economically repair an old toaster so it was obvious that the reason why it was withdrawn was to avoid having to put out bread. Scrambled eggs on request but no sausage (is this Germany??), bacon or beans. It's definitely not worth €14. Save money and go to one of the many coffee shops nearby. The so called "cosy bar" is actually at reception and I never saw anyone there. In 4 nights I only saw 2 other guests at breakfast time, which was not a big surprise. This is a poor excuse for an Accor/ Mercure Hotel. There has to be better value in Dortmund.

Can't complain. Friendly staff, central location and a clean and tidy room. As status members we also got our free welcome drink. The shower gel in our room was empty, but instantly replaced when we asked for it at the reception. As the price was cheap, the value was good.

Right in the centre of Dortmund but less than a five minute walk from the Hauptbahnhof. Good for those breaking a long rail journey, as I was. A warm welcome, but it's not very obvious where the entrance to the hotel is located (three floors up in a lift).

We had to stay one extra night in Dortmund due to our flight being cancelled, so we booked this hotel at a good price last minute. Great hotel, we got a nice room, and the place is perfectly located in the city centre.
