JohnTaggart3 21/08/2020 TripAdvisor review

Extremely dissatisfied with the hotel. We upgraded to Prestige room with mini bar but no soft drink or water in room. No toilet rolls and towels were minimal. Could not get anything to eat at lunchtime. Breakfast was a bag of basic items rather than a full English or cooked meal. Had to pay to park. £151 per night far too expensive for the facilities or lack of them! Only explanation due to Covid??? Not a happy customer must do better Accor

Expectation versus reality

TripAdvisor rating 4.0/5

Brackley61 12/08/2020 TripAdvisor review

The issues: • Breakfast supplied ‘to go’: not mentioned during the booking process, for the money was pitiful. Only mentioned in the booking confirmation, which I admit I did not notice. Went Costa where we had the same/better breakfast for £12, not the £24 charged. • Asked for a room at the rear of the hotel, due to road noise. Instead we were put on the 2nd floor at the front. The room was stiflingly hot, which I appreciate they had little control over, but we had to have the window open and therefore be subjected to the usual chorus of cars, lorries and drunks walking past until the early hours. • Room size. I’m dubious the bed was a double, but either way it was pushed up to one wall due to how small the room is, so my wife had to crawl over the bed each time she got in or out in the night, making sleeping even harder. • Shower; this was a joke, having furred up with scale. FYI we paid £59 for a Premiere Inn, in the Brewery Quarter of Dorchester the next night. Room was larger, cooler, quieter and came with breakfast as advertised. And free parking!

Great location; falls short of four-star standards

Martin_MidlandsUK 22/07/2020 TripAdvisor review

Stayed in Executive Room 128. Pros: Attractive property in central Salisbury location Large room Four-poster bed Good-sized bath with shower over Staff trying hard to please The fan in the wardrobe was effective and quiet At check-in, given free parking; normally £6.50/day Cons: The air conditioning in room 128 was completely ineffective. Of the alternative rooms we saw with a/c, the only one where it was effective was on the rear directly overlooking the condenser plant, but this was probably due t the fact that it wasn't facing the hot evening sun. (Rooms on the second-floor room had not yet been re-opened, so only a few on the first-floor were available, despite the very low occupancy level.) There was a lot of traffic noise with the windows open on this hot weekend. High-definition channels and radio channels on the television kept freezing and were unusable. Maintenance staff were not available to look at these issues, presumably still furloughed. The four-poster bed was hard to get in/out of because of having to climb over a wooden frame. The milk pots were out of date and had gone off. Towels were small and of poor quality. This is a good three-star hotel, but, even allowing for the limitations imposed by the recent lockdown, it falls short as a four-star. Go expecting the former, and you will be happy.

Dear Martin_MidlandsUK Thank you for your review following your stay in late July. Although you have mentioned a number of positives, I have concentrated on the negative comments and addressed with the relevant departments, including the Maintenance and Housekeeping teams to ensure no repetition. We hope we have the opportunity in welcoming you back in the future. Kind Regards Mark Postlethwaite

We decided to stay overnight at the Mercure White Hart in Salisbury at very short notice and just before the coronavirus lockdown. Despite running with a skeleton crew and with very few guests, the hotel staff made us feel very welcome and tried their very best to operate as if it were business as usual.

Had to change room 4 times due to serious infestation of moths in every room! The first room I killed 10 months , the next 6 and so the saga went on! I’ve stayed at the hotel now for 6 months and it’s getting worse with these horrid things in all the rooms . It maybe an old hotel but it should not be happening. Clearly action is required both internally and externally to address the issue . Lots of greenery hangs all over the outside of the hotel, perhaps that could be where these moths are coming from ? I couldn’t relax or sleep all week on a 3 night stay .

Dear Lynn L., I hope this e-mail finds you well. Allow me to apologise for any shortcomings and the moving around the hotel due to the comments in your reply as well as recent events. I hope that we are able to welcome you back soon to Salisbury once the current situation improves and do not hesitate to contact me direct so that I may introduce Hannelore who has replaced Sophie and will be able to look after your reservations and needs. Once again thank you again for sharing your experience, and we hope to see you in the not so distant future, in the meantime stay safe. Kind Regards Mark Postlethwaite General Manager

Rooms were very well equipped and of a good size with comfy bed. Only a couple of small issues: one room had very dim lighting and the other had a leaking bathroom (but as soon as another room because available this room was swapped). Very good price for the location.

Robert S. Business - 16/03/2020 Confirmed reviews ALL

Nice room 230. On a previous stay I had the Chcken Caesar Salad and it was really good. This time it was very disappointing, the bacon looked like leftovers from breakfast, massive fatty pieces that looked anaemic, microwaved? Left a lot as was quite awful. Other nights had the Sea Bream that was nice but a little over cooked, the roast chicken with leek and bacon was the best meal I ate there. Room was really nice, remote worked and toilet didn’t leak!

Dear Mr S., I hope you are keeping well. As always we appreciate your comments regarding your stay. I will of course share your comments with both Alex and the rest of the team when the current situation allows.

A P. Families - 15/03/2020 Confirmed reviews ALL

We were very impressed with the competence and friendliness of the staff. We arrived very late, and were treated kindly despite the late hour. The breakfast and cream tea were marvelous. We were quite happy with the location, which put us in easy strolling distance to the cathedral as well as the town center. The bathroom was clean, if a bit outdated, as was the room. That would be the only possible area of improvement - a bit of an update is in order. The bed was comfy, however, so that was a plus. Overall we were very happy with our stay.

Gillian F. Friends - 09/03/2020 Confirmed reviews ALL

Put in a lift ! The hotel was full of elderly folk on Mar 1 so where were the porters? Glad I had my son to take my case to the room on the second floor. The beef I ordered in the evening would have been better used to sole my shoes and the small bowl of bean based meal presented to my son looked like a child's portion made us laugh -- luckily for him my husband and wife friends had their order wrong so the piled their surplus on to his plate !

Dear Mrs F., Thank you for taking the time to tell us about your experience at the Mercure Salisbury White Hart Hotel. I am sorry that your experience did not meet your expectations on this occasion. As a Grade II listed building we have been unable to install a lift facility, however we are continually making the application that needs to be approved by the relevant Heritage Departments. I was concerned that no service or assistance was offered with your luggage and have stressed this with the team. I wish to apologise that the restaurant service was not to the levels expected, as we had increased volume than that we normally cater for. That said there is no excuse for the food quality and I will discuss this with the Head Chef to prevent future occurrence. We appreciate your sharing your concerns, and it is our hope that you will give us the opportunity to better serve you in the near future. Kind Regards Mark Postlethwaite General Manager

We were please to have been upgraded to Executive suite from classic. However we had to ask separately for a non- slip shower mat, which we though would have been in as a matter of course. As there was a well attended function going on in the City, we expected that two, not one, person would have been on reception and so a queue developed.
