WARNING!!! THIS HOTEL IS VERY STUFFY AND VERY LOUD - IF YOU STAY HERE IN THE SUMMER EXPECT TO GET NO SLEEP. This was one of the worst hotel stays I have ever had, with only the next stay I had at another Mercure Hotel being worse. First, the hotel advertises itself as four stars, which may have been true the last time it was updated in the 1980s. it's a very old very dated, two star at best hotel. The amenities were pathetic - the pillows on the bed were each ~1 inch thick. there were two extra pillows of the same dubious quantity in the closet - if you folded two pillows in half, they almost made one real pillow. I've seen hostels with better bed setups than this "four star" hotel had. It was really warm in Aberdeen when we were there, and the hotel has no ventilation. the windows open ~2 inches. the hotel provided us what was called a "cyclone fan" which was so far from accurate, it was almost funny. A mouse blowing air through a straw would have generated more air than that fan. In addition, the hotel is across the river from a club/bar that stayed open past midnight. It's incredibly loud; even if we'd not had the window open, we couldn't have slept. this might be an okay hotel if they updated it and invested in some ventilation. as it stands, it's old, gross and so loud you won't sleep.
