Very centrally located in the "canal belt" near multiple attractions, travelers say the Mercier is a great experience for the money (from 54€), with charming, cozy décor that mixes retro with postmodern; friendly, helpful service; and nice touches in the 46 rooms like heated bathroom floors and fantastic Bluetooth speakers. There's a restaurant, bar/lounge, and garden, as well as a 24-hour front desk, laundry service, concierge service and luggage storage.
