Mere Hotel

Lovely hotel. Great room for a decent price. We were facing the city (not our first choice), but it was the only one available, and the view was still very pretty. It would be amazing to have just one or two water bottles complimentary for the price we paid, but it's not a deal breaker. The room was clean; the lobby had a nice smell and ambiance. We loved staying in the area because of all the restaurants nearby and some places to get a drink within walking distance (bonus: no need to call an Uber). I recommend this place to others and definitely would stay again.

stayed here with my fiancee for one night. reasonable price in my opinion. we had a king river view room, nice and comfy. parking is a challenge, well it's in that area so it's obvious, may be just park in a paid parking lot instead of street parking during winter as there are snow routes and pay to extend online hours. only vending machine in 3rd floor for weird reasons wasn't responding when i tapped or swiped my card. reception people were nice to us, asked if we could keep the room key as a souvenir, it was my fiancee's first visit in Canada. might consider this place again for overnight stays. overall our visit was pleasant. might i suggest having 2 bottled water a complimentary gift for guests.

Hotel was very nice. Rooms were modern, very clean, the bed was very comfortable. Enjoyed it thoroughly. Would absolutely recommend staying here if downtown without a vehicle. Two constructive feedback: 1. The wifi is really, really slow and unreliable. I feel it shouldn’t be an issue in 2024. My trip I had to use my mobile service instead. 2. The parking situation isn’t great - I would recommend staying here if you don’t have a car - with one you might be hunting for parking in your own as their lot fills up very fast.

Thanks to Patrick for making things right.|| I stayed at the Mere for a medical appointment approximately 1 year ago, during that stay they had a new (trainee) night person that called our room due to another guests causing noise disturbance in the middle of the night (and was a little rude with me). Other than that our was excellent. However I did file a complaint with Patrick the next day. Patrick was excellent to deal with and offered me a complimentary stay for my next stay.||Fast forward to Nov 9. My wife daughter and I stayed at the Mere and everything was great. Great location, great service and comfy room||Thanks again Patrick, will definitely be visiting again

Get ready for an amazing stay at The Mere with my sister, Anderson Nguyen! This hotel is top-notch - spotlessly clean and conveniently located near great local restaurants. The service is absolutely outstanding, and the housekeeping staff is incredibly helpful. Brian, the front desk not only has a great appearance but also goes out of his way to help us find the best places to visit. Kudos to the hardworking team - keep up the fantastic work! Wishing you all continued success in your careers. This trip was a fantastic choice, and I highly recommend it to anyone visiting Winnipeg. It's going to be an awesome experience!

I had the best stay in Winnipeg. Thank you to Patrick K. And Brian N., they both showed true amazing customer service and accommodation. In addition, the room is spacious and clean. Location of the hotel offers a great view of the river and city. Worth the visit. Thank you

A very comfortable hotel with gorgeous views of the river. But what really stood out was the staff - Brian N was so kind and helpful and clearly takes pride in his work and cares about his coworkers. The housekeeping staff work incredibly hard. I applaud the staff and highly recommend this beautiful hotel.

Great hotel. Rohan at the front desk was incredibly kind and helpful. The rooms are clean and well decorated, the snacks are a nice touch. I have stayed here a few times when I’m in the city for business and I would definitely stay again. Make sure you arrive early to secure parking.

I stayed at the Mere Hotel for one night while on a cross-country roadtrip and wish I'd stayed an extra day. The hotel's location is excellent - right on the river, with the North Winnipeg Parkway (a paved walking trail) right outside the door. It's a perfect spot for exploring the city, a short walk to restaurants and the Manitoba Theatre Centre, and a comfortable walk to the Forks. I was travelling with my dog, and since dogs are only allowed on the ground floor I was initially worried about noise (especially since I was on the city side rather than the river side), but it wasn't particularly noticeable at all. The rooms are well-sized and kept well-cleaned, and the modern decor looks good. The bathroom does have glass walls, which might be awkward for some travellers but it does make the space look even larger. The room has a bar-size fridge, a nespresso machine (with three pods), a good amount of baggage storage, a desk and a bench seat near the door. There's a small gym on-site, which looked up-to-date (I took a look, but didn't use it). I've read older reviews here that mention snacks are included, but at the time I stayed (summer 2024), they cost extra. There's no restaurant on-site, but there are so many in the area that it's not really a negative. The only downside is that the parking lot is tiny and the spots themselves are very narrow. I arrived very early, so I was able to find a spot, but people who arrived later in the day weren't all so lucky. I imagine that would be particularly frustrating for people on multi-day stays who might have paid for parking, drove out to explore, and then not been able to park that night. That said, for the location, it's great that they have on-site parking at all! Overall, I would definitely book another night here the next time I'm passing through Winnipeg.

loved this hotel. comfy bed, quiet, good shower and impeccabley clean. nice staff

A modern understated hotel (on the inside) with a risqué bathroom and a mildly acceptable restaurant. Let me get it straight...you only read risqué bathroom!?!?! Located on the waterfront in Winnipeg - yes water during the summer...freaking cold ice the rest...this hotel is quite a nice place to stay. Front check-in to check-out, the staff is well versed in the niceties of being in the service industry. Efficient and really customer driven. Micaela was a darling! The room was spacious and well thought out. Gone are those stupid little luggage ponies that you have to drag from the closet. A well lit and thought out luggage and unpacking area is immediately available as you walk in. A standard wine fridge is stocked with juice, water, and cliff bars - all complimentary. Also, the nespresso selection was quite nice too. If you prefer tea, the front desk will deliver the electric kettle and a nice selection of leaves. The bed was comfortable and the large screen TV help lullaby me to sleep. OK...let's get to the shower thingy and the toilet situation. The water pressure is abysmal. Basically, it's the same as other hotels. Lord! Can a I please get more than a trickle?!?!?! The bathroom is pretty well see through...fully encased in glass and it's about letting the light into the room. Well...for the love of whatever you believe in, it's a freaking bathroom! No one want to see in and no one should be able to see out! Just my prudish self talfking. No...I never got into the whole shower thing at the adult clubs eithe! For those who like to watch...ok...you are weird! Not passing judgement...me thinks! All in all, if it wasn't attached to an outside restaurant - yeah...you basically need to dress up in caribou skin to walk across to a mediocre restaurant, and the pay parking, it could be a 5 star rated risqué hotel. Four stars for me! Cheers!

Okay, great staff always happy to feed our caffeine habit by providing more Nescafe pods since my wife ploughs through them while we travel. Quiet room, even facing the street on the first floor. Prairie dogs outside as we walked up (seriously, and yes, we loved that). Comfortable bed. Water and juice and energy bars included. Fabulous. It's just... the bathrooms. What is it with new "hip" hotels and these glass wall bathroom with a screen to pull down? In the night, you can't turn on the light in the bathroom without waking your traveling companion. And you can turn on the light at other times, if you want to be clearly visible while sitting on the toilet. Yes, it's a screen. No, it's not opaque. What is, exactly, the thinking here? I've seen it at Aloft and other "modern" hotels and seriously, who wants this? I beg you, get opaque curtains there. Or even just wall it off so that you can put on the light at 3am without getting sworn at. I see it coming up in other reviews, and really it does seem to be the cool feature NOBODY wants. Please hear our cries. But... really fantastic, felt safe around the hotel, good night's sleep since we just stumbled around the bathroom in the dark... recommended.

Beautiful hotel on the river. Very modern style boutique hotel. The building is very bright and vibrant. There are 3 floors so it's not too big or crazy. The colors in the room have some brightness in color to them and the room it self is very modern in style. Great quality in what the room offers. Loved my stay here, I would recommend checking this one out when visiting Winnipeg.

No longer offer many items that were previously offered. And doesn't have proper parking lot security. Our vehicle and vehicle next to us broken into. Front desk manager blamed it on lack of city policing. Hotel needs to hire it's own security with the money they charge to park in the very small lot. If you are looking for a gamble of a $1500 repair bill then stay here it is cheap.

The man with a red turban that checked us in was extremely rude and did not want to check us in..we were given a hard time and he had an awful attitude. I had to stay 5 nights and he made it so uncomfortable. I didn't want to move place to place..and ended up staying. I had asked them to leave us some towels inside the room and when we got back my custom ring was gone..it was in the bathroom. I wear it everyday as my bf gave it to me..I was so disappointed and his reply was oh you should of reported it. I said I did and he said "To the Cops" like Excuse me..I asked them to keep an eye out for it. They didn't even look at me. I felt racially attacked as he had a very nasty attitude and was not at all accommodating.. we were 2 indigenous individuals and yoy could tell he didn't want ppl like us there. Was definitely an experience. As well when checking us in he kept huffing and puffing like it was so hard. extreme racism at this hotel. We came in from BC. Couldn't believe the ignorance from this place. As well he seemed like he wanted to deny us while checking in was disgusting! I hope they are rated poorly. This place is not recommended sadly.. as well parking is an extra 16$ kind of alot if you ask me!

My favourite hotel to stay at when traveling to and through Winnipeg. Rooms are modern and spacious and the showers are really nice. Cliff bars and juice are a nice touch as well. Parking is a little tight but it's right downtown so it's super convenient. I strive to stay there, unless I'm towing a trailer!

I will definitely be staying here when I come back. The rooms are clean, new, fresh, and well designed. The staff is great and they're there to help you with any questions you might have. The complimentary items are a great touch, and this is the only place I've ever used in room espresso. Love this place and you will too!

Mere is a modern and new hotel with spacious rooms for its price point. It has a nice central location to the downtown area and is also right next to the river so some rooms have that view. The rooms are clean and fresh and I think you get more than what you pay for overall - I would definitely stay here again. That being said, the hotel is missing a few things that I am sure will be worked out as time goes on and they get through a little bit of the new hotel growing pains. The first issue (that really wasn't that big of a deal but was just a little frustrating) was that our refrigerator didn't work. It was just a box to put food in but didn't keep things cold (yes, it was plugged in). On this note, however, it must be added that they provided complementary water, juice, cliff bars and espresso in the room, so amenities that most other hotels would charge for they give out at no charge which is very refreshing. Also, I am not sure if our room was just missing it, but we found no card for privacy to hang on the door so housekeeping nearly walked in on us. It was fine - we just told them that we didn't need anything, but a card for privacy would be nice. The primary issue I suppose (which again is not that big of a deal just kind of weird) is that the bathrooms are basically see-through unless you have figured out the perfect combination of lighting in the room. The room had a nice modern floor-to-ceiling glass panel that separated the sleeping area from the bathroom that included a pull down screen, but the screen was translucent if the lighting combination in the suite wasn't exact. So if you have the desk light on or the bathroom light off or the entryway off and the bedside light on or whatever combination, you would have to get it just right in order to not see into the bathroom. This isn't that big of a deal for my husband and I but it might be kind of weird with a business partner or children or something. Again, it's not that big of a deal and with the right lighting combination you can almost not see through, but it was kind of a weird thing to navigate. The room had great modern and spacious built-ins in the entryway area for hanging and storing clothes and nice mood lighting throughout the room and in more areas than other hotels at this price point. Staff were courteous and helpful. Overall this is probably the cleanest hotel I can recall staying in so that is a major plus. I would definitely recommend Mere to any friend or family member.

Too bad I'm only here for one night, because the Mere Hotel Winnipeg is absolutely fantastic. If you ever find yourself in this city, this is the place to stay. The rates are good and definitely worth it for what you see and get. The guest services staff are helpful and friendly. Check in was a breeze. I got a room on the first floor but it was still very quiet and spacious. Just draw the curtains or you will see a lot of people walking and biking by. The rooms are beautiful and modern. Feels brand new. Molten Brown toiletries, soft bathrobes and a super comfy king size pillow top with stark white sheets. I really love the feeling of how minimalist the design is but still very warm feeling. Great location within walking distance of the Theatre and Museum districts and next to the waterfront. I took a scenic stroll along the river, just watch out for Mosquitos!

I booked this hotel for my girlfriend since it seemed like a nice way to end our first vacation trip in the Exchange district. We didn't get the river view but instead got the city view. A little creepy since people can look in from the street being on the ground floor. The one thing to consider that my girlfriend pointed out is that there are those large neon bars covering your window. So, you kinda blend into your surroundings. I paid using Orbitz and had to use credit card for incidentals. Parking is $10 and the lot is small. However, I think it is a little price to pay since they do have security cameras around their own lot. Across the street is free but no guarantees. The river view is a bit drab because there was a recent flooding so alot of drift wood. Otherwise, I think this would be a perfect romatic spot. We thought to try the nearby restaurant but then realized we should really go downtown to explore. The hotel desk was nice enough to call ahead and get us reservations the East India restaurant. Plus, the front desk even mailed out a postcard for me too. For ammenties, the bathroom is well furnished with nice soap, shampoo, etc. However, the blinds are semitransparent against the window from ceiling to floor. Therefore, you may feel awkward using bathroom or taking a shower. My girlfriend had me go to the fitness center to work out while she showered. Let me tell you that the fitness center is small and does not have a great city view. However, the channel selection is even better than in your own room. There is a balcony on the 2nd floor which everyone has access and it has a nice view of the bridge. For the room, there is a mini-fridge and glad that water, juice, and CLIF bars are complimentary. Also, there is a Nexpresso machine which makes great expressos in the morning (3 small cups to make your expresso drinks). The bed is super comfortable but the lighting is too confusion. Just stick to a couple of switch or you will be left the challenge of figuring out what turns off that light. The price is reasonable being in downtown but then again I got 15% off from Orbitz. Do some shopping online before you committ to getting a room.

This place is great- free snacks and espresso. Only bummer- $10/night for parking. Seems like on-street parking is filled, as the hotel is right next to some new condos. We stayed here for the Festival du Voyaguer- it's right across the river from the party!

Fantastic two night stay at the Mere! Clean, modern, and comfortable rooms. Located close to The Forks and the Manitoba Museum. Very friendly and attentive staff, guest-controllable climate control in the room instead of simply "hotter" or "colder" as is often the case in hotel rooms. Very cozy bed and bedding, and the very soft bathrobes were fantastic. We enjoyed the plethora of lighting options in the room, you can illuminate it like the noonday sun, or set a special mood if you desire. Also much appreciated were the standard and rain shower options. The room fridge is stocked with complimentary juice, water, and Clif bars...and there are items for purchase also. While we were out for the day, we'd left the "do not disturb" sign on the door and when we returned, there was a note under the door letting us know staff would stop by any time and re-stock towels or anything else we needed. A nice touch! There's a wall-mounted 40" flat screen that welcomes guests by name when first turned on, and the free WiFi worked well during our stay. Right next door is the Cibo Waterfront Cafe if you'd like a meal, or a lace to relax and have a drink. Parking on site is somewhat limited, but there's an overflow lot next to the main one if it gets busy. (Parking isn't included in the room rate - it's $12 per day.) I loved it, AND...she loved it. We're definitely planning a return visit!

THE place to stay in the hippest part of Winnipeg. 160$ bucks and 10 bucks for parking. A real deal . The rooms ARE a bit thin-walled and noisy. However I did enjoy the sex next door. Very hot! Man she was screaming... Maybe she was being murdered! The staff is really excellent. Be sure to have the Eggs Benedict out back at Cibos. Best in Canada yo.

Great boutique hotel in a great location. Beautiful, clean and nice folks at the front desk.

Ive probably been to about 100 hotels in the past 2 years all over the world. Mere is def in my top 5. Great staff, clean & extremely smart design in rooms, free water, juice, cliff bars and recycling bins avail in room. Overlooking the water and super chill vibes. Super recommended.
