Property: Mövenpick Hobart
Status: Explorer+ Platinum
Room booked: Base room
Room upgraded/type: Upgraded to King Harbourview
Room Rate: A$142/night (dropped from A$170, monitored via RateDrop.net)
Early check in/late out: Requested early check-in for 11am, room wasn’t ready, notified we could access at 1pm, though we were out exploring until 3pm anyway. Requested latest possible checkout, told 1pm, but spent the morning at MONA so checked out at 9am and stored luggage instead.
Free internet: Yes
Welcome drink: Yes beer and wine from the bar
Welcome amenity: A bottle of De Bortoli “The Legacy” Brut sparkling


Notes: Really enjoyed this one night stay stay. Room was small but the view over Hobart Harbour was excellent.

Didn’t quite understand the “chocolate hour,” we went down at 3:30pm and there were just two plates of small desserts that weren’t really being served, only a couple of tastes left, didn’t see anything else happening at that time unless we missed it.

Breakfast was excellent, a la carte dining and the buffet were both great, house-made looking granola, fresh squeezed vegetable juice and good espresso coffee.

Welcome amenity was 4 local chocolates and a bottle of The Legacy Brut sparkling, not too bad, though I wouldn’t have more than two glasses of it, it’s a bit of a headache in a bottle.

We’d definitely stay here again.

Does anyone know if Mercure Warragul offers free breakfast for Platnium?

They do not - the restaurant downstairs is operated by a third party, so no Accor Plus discount either. Lower your expectations for welcome gift/drink as well. Last visit I scored a single can of lemonade.

Fortunately the rooms themselves are pretty nice, and the hotel is on the newer side.

Do you recall the room number or at least the floor - it would still be in the app under past stays, I think.

Not all hotels have a restaurant, which is why they have a page where you can see if breakie is free for plat+

Similarly, does anyone know if Mercure Port of Echuca offers free breakfast for Platinums? It has a restaurant. But not an executive lounge (rare at a Mercure)

Was it a nice lemonade? Chances are it could be worth >= a bottle of De Bortoli Legacy!

That link shows both lounge and free breakfast participating properties and the answer is no.

Ah, never been down that end of the corridor. I always ask to be well away from the lifts.

Lucky! It's the Schweppervescence for the win, I say!

I'm fairly confident I enjoyed free breakfast the Echuca Mercure
