Summary: Bearing in mind it was just at the end of the season, and I arrived 1 hour early - unable to contact anyone by telephone or at reception to see if room ready. Despite the hotel being almost empty, it wasn’t! Staff friendly enough but a bit of a ‘Shining’ feel to a mostly empty hotel. Room fine, bed comfy and shower fine. Need to address the ‘dry’ hotel situation as it forces guests to go out - and probably dine elsewhere too. Staff (when you find them) helpful enough but lacking initiative? Would stay again for experience and ferry convenience. Unusual layout makes sense if arriving by car and you get directions to the car park in advance!

Summary: Breakfast good. Limited food options in stromness. Access to buses ferries and neolithic sites very good

David Aug 29, 2025 01:08:13 AM

Summary: £188 for a tiny , dated , tired room. Uncomfortable bed , cobwebs hanging from the ceiling , the only thing smaller than the bedroom was the bathroom…. Ridiculously over priced , mainly because of the captive trade on Orkney , but no need for the poor condition and quality.

Summary: The staff all seemed to be seasonal and weren’t really able to give us directions to places. But they were very friendly.

Summary: Pros: Friendly staff. Fantastic English breakfast. Great location, walking distance from the ferry terminal and all stores near the Stronmess waterfront. Even without an elevator, the parking location made it easy to access the room. Beds were clean and comfortable. Showers had nice high water pressure that gave a massage feeling. Cons: The building is historic, so the floors had older carpet. Newer flooring, e.g. newer carpet or luxury vinyl plank could improve the stay experience. Parking area had mosquitos after the rain. Mosquito counter measures may have been helpful. E.g. Spaying, stratgeically placed zappers, torches, etc... This was our first visit to the Orkney islands. We visited in August. Insect repellant is highly recommended when visiting certain areas on the island. The local people were all very friendly. Overall, the Stromness hotel was a great experience. My family and friends all had a fun time. We would stay at this hotel again if we were to visit the Orkney Islands.

Summary: Clean and spacious, but rather basic facilities. Wonderful staff!

Summary: This hotel is conveniently right by the ferry terminal. There is an elevator but when we stayed in late June 2025, the elevator was broken. We brought a car to the island and it was difficult to find the designated parking area behind the hotel; even with GPS there is no clear sign for the hotel when approaching from the back road until you have already driven down the driveway and into the parking area. We were unfamiliar with how to use the vintage locks, but the staff on duty was very helpful coming to our room and showing us how to use the lock. The bathroom was spacious and beds were comfortable.

Summary: close to sea port and right next to whole rows of shops bars places to explore- jut dandy

Mark Jun 18, 2025 01:21:23 PM

Summary: Faded glory. Very over-priced. Shower had not been cleaned properly since previous guest. Housekeeping door (with COSSH label re hazardous substances within) was lwft unlocked / open for half my stay. No lift so stairs were a chore. No-smokiny policy not enforced properly (guests were opening the fire door outside my room to smoke, the fumes of which were then present in my room.

Summary: The hotel car park has a skip full to overflowing, and this, as well as disused furniture and scrap metal reduced the hotel parking, on an island where parking spaces are hard to find. We were not given the code to the fire door but were lucky enough to meet another couple of guests who did and let us in. The manageress was aloof and abrupt but the 2 girls working in the restaurant rescued the hotel from getting a lower grading. The hotel also let itself down with the amount of litter at the under side of the hotel, as well as seemingly dumped bedding.
