Columba Hotel Inverness by Compass Hospitality

10/10 Excellent

"This is such a charming hotel in a great location. The room was quite large and nicely furnished. I would definitely stay again."

Mercure Inverness Hotel

8/10 Good

"Pros of Mercure Inverness: Fabulous location. Large room. Comfortable bed. Near a grocery co-op. Coffee house, cafes, etc. The breakfast was worth the additional cost. Staff, friendly and nice. Cons. VERY dimly lit room. Bathroom, likewise, low light. I suspect they're saving money by using what look like low-watt yellow bulbs. One of the tracks for the drapes was badly broken, it was near impossible to pull closed. Evidently they're also saving money by making the room ventilation system as weak as possible. THE ROOM WAS INCREDIBLY "stuffy", warm - needed air. I had the "cooling" fan on the highest it would go, with a low temp chosen but it had zero effect. The coffee-maker is on a permanent shelf in the closet. It could not be pulled forward to make coffee, so you have to reach IN to do it. But the closet was so dark it wasn't possible to see what I was doing. They need to either move the location of the coffee-maker or install a light in the closet. Last: admittedly, the hotel cannot control this: but it is located in a neighborhood of several pubs. I was on the 1st floor. The noise from partying in the street continued until about 3 AM each night I was there. I played white noise on headphones to get to sleep. As they say - it's all in the details. I would not stay here again."

The Highland Hotel by Compass Hospitality

10/10 Excellent

"The hotel staff was extremely courteous. The lady on the front desk went out of her way to help us secure multiple rooms as close together as possible. Just an amazing experience overall. The folks that left negative feedback in the past need to revisit the hotel."

Frequently asked questions

When is the best time to go to Merkinch?

The best time to go to Merkinch is during the summer months, from June to August, when the weather is generally at its finest.

During this period, you can expect longer daylight hours and milder temperatures, making it ideal for exploring the Merkinch Local Nature Reserve and enjoying walks along the Beauly Firth. The higher temperatures, typically ranging from 15°C to 20°C, provide comfortable conditions for outdoor activities.

Couples looking for a relaxing escape will find these months particularly appealing. The pleasant weather allows for leisurely strolls through the nature reserve, spotting local wildlife like roe deer and seals, and enjoying the scenic views without the chill of other seasons. Many local cafes and pubs also have outdoor seating available, which is lovely for enjoying a drink or meal together.

For solo travellers interested in photography or nature observation, the summer offers the best opportunities. The clear skies and extended daylight ensure excellent light for capturing the landscapes and wildlife.

Can I cancel my hotel reservation on Expedia?

Many Expedia hotel reservations are refundable, provided that you cancel before the hotel's cancellation deadline − this is often within 24 to 48 hours of your scheduled arrival. If you have a non-refundable booking, it might still be possible to receive a refund if you cancel it within 24 hours of booking. Be sure to check your booking confirmation for the exact cancellation policy. For maximum flexibility, use our 'Fully refundable property' filter during your search to find the right Merkinch hotel for you.
