"Friendly comfortable accommodation"

8.0

Genuinely friendly and helpful staff everywhere. Property right on the harbour.

Our room was quite dark - up a side alley and just a small window facing a stone wall. Breakfast was ‘ok’ but no local products that ‘sing’ in terms of taste or quality.

"A satisfied customer"

8.0

For a one night stay it suited my purposes. It was comfortable and had everything I needed.

A drawback of this property is that it is no longer a separate hotel with its own facilities. It has become an annexe and in order to use facilities and have meals you have an outdoor walk to the main Kirkwall Hotel. This didn’t bother me on a dry, mild night but might not be to my taste on a wet, wintry day.

Die Lage!

Das zweite Zimmer war nur durch unser Zimmer begehbar. Sehr dunkel und alt eingerichtet. Enger Treppenaufgang, kein Aufzug.

"Small but good quality single room, good location."

8.0

Handy central harbour location and good to be able to get a single room considering how high hotel prices are. Good facilities eg ironing board, great to have real coffee and cafetière in room. Good shower.

The entry hall to the Shore feels neglected and there’s no signage to door leading to rooms. Also bad stains on landing carpets.
