Beautiful spacious room, with spacious modern bathroom and cosy bed. Lovely breakfasts, excellent cosy private bar. Parking close by/out front if you time it right. Staff - amazing! Chef so lovely and lady on breakfast duty also - helped set up so we could watch the All Blacks v England rugby match early in the morning. Chef also showed some interesting local events being the Orca visiting the harbour. Made us feel very welcome. Breakfasts were great - lots of choice

Stromness itself felt like a beautifully preserved jar of history and the Stromness Hotel was a perfectly fitting piece within it. We arrived quite late, but the staff went above and beyond to ensure a smooth check-in for us. The rooms, though simple, were cozy and well-appointed.

I loved the location of the property about 10/ 20 minutes drive from most of the historic sites we wanted to see. The house is about 10 minutes drive outside Stromness in a very quiet location, by a quiet roadside. The owner Simon was so friendly and couldn't have been more helpful and he responded to our requests for information immediately. The house has everything you need and was comfortable, warm and spotless and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend the property. Love Orkney and thank you Simon for all the info and suggestions for spectacular walks, we even saw puffins at Brough of Birsay and enjoyed a delicious lunch in the Standing Stones Hotel listening to the Birsay boys play in the folk festival! Hope to return one day to explore the islands further.

The staff were friendly and helpful. The decor was reminiscent of the early 19th century and very charming. We had booked a larger room, which had a 4 poster bed and spa tub. Breakfast was good as was the dinner. The bed was very comfortable.

    It is a lovely part of Orkney, very quiet with nice beaches...

    It is a lovely part of Orkney, very quiet with nice beaches nearby and near to the north of the island, places such as Birsay which is lovely and has a a little shop with great food. It is not too far from Dounby which has a supermarket for supplies. A real dark sky area for Northern Lights enthusiasts. Evie beach is also nearby which is beautiful and has a small parking area and toilets so is good if you want a swim.
