We wanted to be close to ferry to Kirkwall as early start and first time user. It’s an excellent stop over the hotel was perfect and suited our needs. We had booked two rooms and were upgraded to larger rooms with pier views. Tea coffee and Scottish biscuits in rooms with ensuite showers. As we were the only guests they provided breakfast bags and was substantial plus they gave us a choice to go to their sister hotel for a hot breakfast.
I went for a meal here before taking the ferry to the Orkney Islands. The staff are very accommodating in cooking our food quickly so that we wouldn't miss the ferry. Unpretentious old school bar that is very good for a quick drink
Disgusting rip off . Shabby bedroom with window facing a 20 feet high wall. Couldn’t see any sky ! Sink in the bedroom and tiny shower in the corner.Rooms advertised as “having lovely views to the Orkneys “ . We had a 20 feet high wall 8 feet from the bedroom window. Wife in tears after a very long drive. This room should only be a storeroom. So sad there are people like this living in Scotland fleecing the public.VisitScotland Tourist Board should take appropriate action.
Charged £110 per night for this ! No reply to emails and letters asking for an apology and refund.Sums up these despicable
people who should be made to stay in that room for a long period to reflect on greed and how to treat fellow humans in a decent manner.
Great location in the harbour just a few mins from the Stromness ferry , excellent restaurant , and a great wee bar. The hotel and rooms are dated as you would expect from the price but everything worked , bed and shower were pretty good. Zero view from our room but 1 night , not an issue. Will certainly stay again.Oh , and all the staff we met were great.
I stayed here overnight after a long week camping in orkney. Stayed a night here before my train down south. Staff were absolutely lovely ! My room was spacious and very clean. Lots of tea and sugar :) bed was very comfortable! A short walk to a BEAUTIFUL beach ! And a 6 minute walk to the ferry terminal. I felt very safe as a lone traveller. And would 100% return. The food was BEAUTIFUL aswell! Highly recommend the restaurant! And a nice seating area at the bar too ! But the staff were very helpful and made me feel very welcome. ||Thank you for a brilliant stay :)
What a great afternoon. Bar staff could not have been nicer. Drinks fabulous and music, great
Have stayed here a number of times now. It is in the harbour 1 minutes walk from the Northliknk ferry terminal for trips to the Orkney Islands. It is a no frills hotel with a really good restaurant. The food is good quality and staff are friendly and professional. Rooms are clean and well presented, all the usual in room items are present (kettle, coffee, tea bags, milk, tv, ensuite- towels, shower gel etc). Breakfast is fabulous - full Scottish everytime, but there are healthier alternatives too. Breakfast times are suited to the early morning ferry service.
I will be staying here again and have no hesitation recommending it.
The room was large and spacious. Good WiFi and all the amenities we needed. The room did not have a view as at the back of the building, but was quieter as a result. Good view from the restaurant over the harbour. Very convenient location for the ferry. Food was good, but the evening meal needed chasing to get the order corrected.
