Mercure Livingston Hotel

Mercure Livingston Hotel

10/10 Excellent
"Room was clean, check in was friendly and easy, room was ready on arrival. Didn't spend much time in the hotel as we had plans but breakfast was great and reception was manned 24 hours so coming back late was no issue. Short walk to a shopping centre which was handy for last minute shopping and there is an asda superstore 5 minutes walk for drinks and snacks."
