Mercure - January 2007
A portfolio of 24 regional mid-market full service hotels acquired from Macdonald hotels and previously operated under the Macdonald brand. Following the acquisition, Accor were appointed through a management contract to operate the hotels under the Mercure brand. The hotels are all 3 and 4 star rated and offer a range of conference, leisure, food and beverage facilities catering to both the corporate and leisure markets.

They are, or have been, dominant in their market place and are typified by excellent locations and there are opportunities to both improve and add bedrooms and other facilities.
