Would definitely stay again

I arrived late for checkin-in but everything was left out for me so it was super quick and easy to get into my room after a long journey, which was great! Room was clean and in a really good condition. Bed was very comfortable. The shower was amazing! Very powerful and hot.

Good central hotel

Nice hotel in the centre of Kirkwall. Street parking was easy enough and you didn't have to pay overnight. The room was far too warm with all of the heaters on full-blast which was not very eco-friendly. We turned all of them off. The hotel restaurant was nice with good grub. The room was comfy although a little dated. We had a few drinks in the Bothy bar but didn't feel very welcome, the bar staff didn't seem keen to serve us. We wanted to try some local whisky, but felt like we were a nuisance for asking. It probably would have been fine if we'd just gone into the bar for a beer!

Clean & basic but comfortable. Street parking free after 5pm - 9 am nearby. Stairs & lift available. Had dinner in pub after a couple of beers and was good. Barmaid Anita brilliant!
Ann, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Ideal hib for our stay.

Spacious room, and an ideal hub for our holiday. Slightly off the main routes, but convenient for harbour, information centre, bus station, etc The main restaurant was fully booked on our first evening, but the bar area could accomodate us and had the same menu. Friendly staff and a good choice of food, so we went back there throughout our stay. Would definitely stay here again.
David, 4-night trip

8/10 Very good

Food and service in the pub was excellent. Breakfast was quite good, though maybe a little slow. The rooms are dated, but comfortable and clean.

Week in Orkney

The location can’t be beat! Our window was right above the entrance to the pub and did get a bit noisy. The bathroom was good and the bed was okay.
