Question about The Mercer Hotel
 
I am looking at a reservation at The Mercer but am a bit worried about road noise. Does anyone have any experience of staying here - if so I would be interested in the relative merits of a room overlooking Prince Street or one on Mercer Street from a traffic and noise perspective.

Alternatively should I just go for one overlooking the courtyard?

Thanks

I've never stayed at the Mercer Hotel but I live nearby. Prince Street is much busier than Mercer-traffic as well as pedestrians. In general, I'm not too bothered by street noise because I have decent quality windows and they block most of the sound. I'd imagine the Mercer has soundproofed their rooms quite well (excluding vehicles with sirens).

Topping in hope of some further input -thanks

|I've stayed there in an inside room facing the courtyard and had no problem with noise.

May I respectfully suggest that the CITY in question be included in this and other enquiries. I thought this must relate to Savannah (the Mercer house?). Nothing I have read seems to indicate which city.

Thank you
