Located in the heart of downtown Salt Lake City, The Mercer offers the kind of walkable lifestyle people move here for-easy access to local restaurants, coffee shops, museums, parks, and city events-while still feeling like a calm, comfortable... retreat at the end of the day. Neighbors get to know one another; resident events feel intentional rather than forced, and the atmosphere is welcoming without being overwhelming.
At The Mercer Apartments, residents don't just like where they live-they talk about how it feels to live here. Reviews repeatedly highlight a management team that is approachable, responsive, and genuinely invested in the community, paired with maintenance that shows up quickly and gets things done right the first time. That care is felt throughout the building, from the well-kept common spaces to the way residents are treated day to day.
The Mercer is for people who want city living with a sense of community, modern convenience without feeling corporate, and a place where management knows your name and takes pride in where you live. It's not just a location-it's a home residents are proud to recommend.

Me and my roommate just started to move in and we have had an excellent experience with the leasing agent, Brandy. The apartment is nice, and we especially love the two tone cabinets in the kitchen.

The safety issues while living here have been numerous, despite reporting homeless people entering and sleeping in common areas and in front of my own apartment door. There are huge issues with people picking up after their pets, in the garage and stairways. The rent is higher than advertised and will likely have a big jump after your lease renews. I would not recommend living here to anybody. Thin walls and odors from the trash room are also an issue.

I lived here and had an ok experience with the management but when I asked for help due to roommates not paying rent they didn’t even respond. Price is outrageous. They should lower the pricing and maybe they will get people to actually stay and not have to deal with snobby people

I came across the Mercer right at 5:30 and Kirsti let me pop in and take a look at a vacant apartment. She was really helpful and worked around my schedule, which is awesome cause most places are pretty inflexible when it comes to closing hours.

I used to live on the East coast, so easy access to the city is important to me. The location is close to grocery stores, restaurants, the airport, trax, city festivals, you name it. The apartments themselves are updated, open and I love having the washer and dryer right there. The gym access (not to mention great view!!) is awesome in the freezing winters - you can enjoy the snowy city through the big window walls... without having to be in it : ). My contact with property management was great.... Kirsti was helpful, warm and professional.
