Grand Mercure Belem Do Para

The hotel breakfast was fantastic and the staff welcoming and helpful. The bathroom had a drip in the shower, that would be my only critique.

Very elegant hotel in Belem

The hotel is great , check- in staff and everybody else are wonderful going above and beyond to reach guests’s highest expectations. The place is in the best location on a privileged sector of Belem with lots of beautiful cafes , restaurants and cute stores , in fact , it is few blocks from the Basilica and approximately 20 minutes away from the Docas and “Ver o Peso” market, which I love to visit every tim in Belem . The only 2 improvements / suggestions I have are regarding to the fact the hotel does not offer guests real toilet paper rolls , instead , guests have to use napkin type paper that is kept in a sort of napkin holder installed in the bathroom wall and I found that extremely annoying, Also, the restaurant staff should be trained and instructed to leave guests in peace until they finish their breakfast because at 10:00 on the dot they take everything away , including coffee , juices , food from the breakfast area wiping out any chance guests would have to go for second helpings . I completely understand that the restaurant closes at 10:00, but the rule should apply to people who arrive at 10:00 not for the ones who are already inside enjoying breakfast . That happened to me and family in our last staying , we were eating breakfast when everything was rapidly and suddenly removed making us , especially myself, rushed to eat the food and it was a very unpleasant experience. On the other hand i only have great things to say about the hotel.

The room and the whole hotel smelled of mold. Breakfast was ok. Dinner i ordered in the restaurant was terrible. I ordered the local fish, but it was like chewing bubblegum. My key-card kept malfunctioning. In the end the maintenance had to replace batteries in de door-lock, so i had to wait almost 30 minutes in from of my room before it was fixed. The area of the hotel has very little options. No restaurants real close and the area around the hotel did not give me a safe feeling. My wife ordered a cocktail, but could not taste any alcohol in it. Tasted like a sour juice.
