The Royal Hotel Stromness

"Lovely comfortable room, great breakfasts, just a short walk from ferry and bus terminal. I was always too late booking the Ferry Inn for an evening meal, but there is a big Co-op just along the road where you can get salads and sandwiches. I would definitely stay here again."

Ferry Inn

Lindisfarne Bed & Breakfast

"The kindliest couple as hosts with one of the best breakfasts in Scotland. Lies idyllic above Stromness, three minutes per car from the ferry terminal. About 15 minutes per foot down into Stromness. Spacious and very clean room with a great guest room as well. The views towards Hoy from the Breakfast Room were amazing. Thank you! PS. The lithium bottom cell of my car key was empty."

The Stromness Hotel by Paymán Club

"I was here for a week for work. It rates as the 2nd worst hotel I've ever had the bad luck to visit. Plus points the Wi-Fi worked most of the time and the room was clean. The girl that was getting the breakfast area ready was friendly and helpful. Negatives, it's run down. It smells strongly musty/mouldy with a hint of sewerage. The reception staff where unwelcoming and unfriendly. There is no Bar. Breakfast was never ready before I had to leave for work at 8am. The rooms are dated and in severe need of refurbishment. It was like a cheap hostel and I've been in emergency homeless units (via work) and all of them where a much higher standard. The shower could be boiling hot, freezing cold or a 5-10 second cycle of the same. My laptop was bigger than the TV. Like stepping back in time to the bad old days. The people of Orkney where very friendly, talkative and helpful and the Islands are beautiful."
