 The pool is small and can get a little crowded if there are families of children Perfectly adequate for a quick dip and the garden surrounding it is lovely but don t expect to be able to swim 
 An oasis of calm in the most interesting part of the city the Mercer is elegant comfortable and beautifully designed The staff are uniformly wonderful giving a friendly and personal service at all times and the food is excellent Quite simply the best hotel we ve ever stayed in
