Beautiful hotel
Stayed 2 nights at The Mere whilst in Cheshire from the south for my cousins wedding and it was worth every penny. Predominately a golf hotel, the property also has a great atmosphere for non golfers. 4 star accommodation without being pretentious, it offers a relaxed atmosphere, excellent breakfast and dining options, (we used the clubhouse), well appointed, comfortable rooms and an extremely good spa with treatments at an added cost. The staff were very helpful and friendly throughout the hotel. We ate and slept well, all in all a very good stay

The hotel itself would be amazing with a refurbishment in the hotel and its facilities as the decor is tired. But I couldn’t fault the service, staff or food we had all was excellent. A comfortable bed is important and the bedding, pillows and mattress was extremely comfortable. Will definitely be returning.

Would definitely stay again
It’s a lovely hotel, the staff were nice, the breakfast and spa were divine! It’s worth noting that the lake view is obstructed and they are golfing just outside your window. Also, the fine print does state (which I didn’t read) that there are additional charges to use the pool - so don’t be fooled into thinking it’s included.

Great. However, I feel it’s a bit of a cheek to charge paying guests an extra £15 to use pool and facilities!!

Second time staying here and we will be back! We use it as we have family close by, its a beautiful setting, all amenities are well looked after to a very high standard, staff are superb, very friendly and polite, nothing is too much, rooms are a decent size, very comfortable and beds are great. Only drawback is not being able to get 2 double beds in one room, you can only book a room with 2 singles. Breakfast can be delivered to your room for £5 at a time of your choice, ours didn’t disappoint.

Lovely hotel, had a very relaxing stay. Almost perfect except for a few small details. Firstly, their pillows are dreadful, far to soft, needed four to get any support. Secondly 'courtyard view' is code for car park. Finally, check-out was slow, but these are purely niggles. The hotel was as close to perfect as any I've stayed in. The bath was fabulous, show powerful, bed large and comfy, room large, very clean and well maintained, decor stylish, location quiet and staff generally great. Would happily recommend. Just be aware, guests in standard rooms do not get spa access included with the room rate.

Felt unwanted
Reception and check in was a nightmare - took about twenty minutes and there were only two people in front of me.
Room was fantastic, probably the most comfortable room I have ever stayed in.
Breakfast is what ruined it for me, nearly all the tables were empty when I arrived for breakfast and I was shown to a corner hidden out of the way where all I could see was a wall.
It made me feel as though my appearance wasn’t the look required for the restaurant even though I was smartly dressed; I was actually quite upset.

Stayed at The mere for a local wedding and travelled from Essex.
Lovely hotel and very friendly staff we only had one problem and that was the air conditioning stopped working during the night and we woke up with banging headaches . My daughter entered the room and said it was like a sauna in our room the very lovely maintenance guy said that the computer was reading 26 when the control panel said 19 .
The reception staff were not to sympathetic and said I could have walked to reception in the middle of the night . To be honest we just thought it was a warm night … I did have a headache all day on the day of the wedding so that wasn’t great! But overall great hotel

Grubby Grubby Grubby
We were very disappointed with the grubbiness considering that this is a supposed four star hotel. There were fingerprints on the glass doors throughout the hotel, the main lift was again covered in fingerprints and the floor of the lift had disgusting stains on the carpet. The bedroom smelt of damp and the bedspread & carpet was covered in stains. Bathroom was OK. Unfortunately our experience has put us off staying at the Mere again. As mentioned, the premise of a four star experience to what was delivered could not have been further ends of the spectrum. I will not put any blame on the staff who were lovely but I am shocked that a hotel lacks such basic quality control to be able to put right such obvious lapses in standards.
