The breakfast room is spacious with a basic choice of food and drinks. Hotel staff is always available 24 hours, helpful and friendly. Most of them speak English quite well. The hotel has a car and airport pickup/drop service on demand, on charge. It is possible to pay with major credit cards.
The only drawback for the hotel is being a bit away from the centre of the city, so be prepared to take a taxi if you are not ready to walk appr. 20 min. Room service is available for dinner through a nearby fast-food restaurant.
Hotel Mercury provides very good value for money and after experiencing some alternative accommodations in Dushanbe, I will certainly come back to here in my next trips.
My only criticisms/cautions are 1) that the hotel is sort of set back from the main drag, Rudaki Street...currently it is very cold, unseasonably cold even in Tajikistan, and electricity is at a premium, and so most street lights aren't lit...and for some, the five-minute walk from the hotel gates to Rudaki street could be a little intimidating; and 2) I don't think the hotel has a restaurant...that is, they don't prepare the meals there...indeed, most of the breakfast choices aren't too complicated or are packaged yogurts, cereals, etc. There is a room service menu, but I think that after you order, they go out and pick up the food from somewhere else and bring it back to the hotel. I could be wrong about this, so please check on it yourself, but I didn't see any indication that the hotel has its own restaurant or bar (and maybe they don't do enough business to justify having one? or maybe it was closed for the winter season; I'm not sure). So plan on going out for dinner and lunch.
I think for Dushanbe, this hotel is excellent, and as of this writing there's not a lot of choice. I'm happy to answer any questions about Hotel Mercury or Dushanbe.
However, I consider them somewhat dishonest. I arrived early in the morning on 24 June 2010, and came straight to the hotel. I thought they might say that they couldn't let me in, since my reservation wasn't until that evening. They let me in immediately, but then CHARGED ME FOR AN EXTRA DAY, without having told me in advance that by being there a few hours ahead of schedule I would be charged for a day that was not part of my reservation.
What was more annoying was that the manager refused to talk to me about it. They said he was about to come, I waited an hour and he didn't show, they kept calling him, he was apparently available to talk to his own staff, but wouldn't talk to me. I left the hotel a day earlier when I discovered they were (as far as I'm concerned) cheating me. It all left an unpleasant impression. It's too bad, because other than that I really like the Mercury, but I won't stay there again.
For this money you get room in very peaceful environment, you can really rest since no noise will bother you, not central but not far from the city center and main Rudaki street, I would recommend to put a table on Rudaki for taxi drivers to get familiar with direction.
Staff is polite and quite, rooms are big and comfortable, TV, PC, mini bar, wifi. Buffet breakfast is average to good.
Breakfast is simple, but there are enough options to satisfy your morning hunger. The hotel itself is at the very end of the main street Rudaki and there is literary nothing of interest around it, no shops, no restaurants, and the hotel itself does not have a restaurant either, but the staff can arrange the delivery of local fastfood if needed.
To get to the city center, one needs to take a bus or a taxi (very overpriced if called from the hotel) or walk for about 15-20 minutes, in the middle of the hot day such a walk can be unpleasant, there is not much shadow in Dushanbe.
The positive side is that it is very quiet and isolated place, very good for relaxing after a busy day. Well guarded 24/7 as well. There is an ATM at the premises and a nice fountain in the yard.
"Be sure to request a room with a balcony. Exceptional size, and provides a really nice view of their courtyard."Read full review
