While the hotel is centrally located in the old part of town, unless you spend more to stay on the river side, you will likely not get much sleep. The hotel sits on one of the busier streets for nightlife, with clubs blasting music till 3 am. This made adjusting to the time difference extremely challenging as this was our first stop on our trip. Parking can also be tricky because of the location. The rooms, however, are clean and cute. The staff are super friendly. And the onsite restaurant was just what we needed after our long travel day. Perhaps we would have felt differently staying on the river side.
Tasteless interior decorating, not enough power sockets, leaking toilet, no fridge, kettle did fit under the sink tap.

The staff were very friendly and helpful and the interior was in good shape. The exterior looked quite shabby and maybe needs some work. The room was comfortable but very noisy indeed (a Sunday night) as it overlooked a street with late bars and music venues. The internet coverage in the room was patchy. Water pressure in the shower (3rd floor) was very weak. Quite likely there are other rooms without these issues. Parking was 15 pounds a night (not included in the expedia booking and if it was advertised I didn't see the notice). Mercure is generally good and I'll stay with them again but probably not in the Inverness Mercure.
Had a great stay for a few nights. Excellent location in relation to any tours going on (don't have to walk far). The staff was very nice. Word to the wise about onsite parking - do not feed the meter in the lot. Just go to reception, you will pay there. That would be the only piece of advice I would give others and the hotel, is to make that more clear.
Great property. Good onsite bar and restaurant. Very conveniently located.

Very very very poor value
First, I get that August in Scotland is expensive. Everywhere. But a down at the heel Travelodge is a more attractive and charming lodging than this travesty of a hotel.
Terribly stained rugs throughout the property. Lifeless, corporate decor. Decent but overburdened staff.
Room had a comfortable bed and good bedding but all else was concrete block walls covered by decaying paper, a few wall stains, exposed piping, dirty windows.
Pathetic value for nearly 200 quid.
The French corporate owners should be ashamed of themselves pawning off this aging relic on tourists at extortionate rates.
This hotel is right near the train station and taxi stands. Also near McGregor’s for traditional music and great F&C. Also get a proper scone and proper tea and cafe across the street.
Bar /food area was pleasant. Staff were very nice. Bed was excellent.

We stayed there at a particularly hot period. As the building has no air conditioning, the windows had to stay open. Our room was opposite the main street and the noise from outside goes into the early hours of the morning. Earplugs were required.
No fridge or safe was provided in the room. The hotel is in a great location within walking distance of many restaurants and shops.
The car park was large enough for us to always get a paid parking spot.
Check-in was extremely slow and not very friendly. Location is excellent - walking from the rail station. The room is good if you’re facing the river as there’s virtually no noise but it has no air con, you need to request a fan, hence it was a bit hot during the night ( it’s summer).
Breakfast caters for gluten and lactose intolerant but overall could be better.
Double bed was against wall. Only one chair. Notice in bathroom saying floor and shower get slippery when wet, but you had to ask for a mat - presumably once you had fallen!!! no handrail in shower area.
