Our first trip to the Orkneys, and now we're hoping it won't be our last. We picked the Stromness Hotel over others in part because of T.A. reviews, in part because of its proximity to the amazing Neolithic artifacts. We were very late in the season, and lucked into Room 2, one of the two on the front with huge... More

We stayed here for three nights (from 17 September as part of a group. We had a very friendly greeting and were amazed at the size of the room we had - it was old fashioned but comfortable with real old wooden sash windows - which rattled in the gale that was blowing - a judicious stuffing with toilet paper...

We stayed here in early August and had a wonderful time. The hotel room could do with updating but was wonderfully clean with heaps of room. We found the staff very helpful and friendly. Thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The restaurant served good meals. Would recommend it as a place to stay as it overlooks the harbour and is on the... More

We stayed at the Stromness Hotel for three nights and just loved the place. Although a bit tired the place was charming and the staff so helpful. There was a mini hurrricane during the Saturday night with lashing rain, the wind whistled around the building and this just added to the great experience. The breakfasts and evening meals were first... More

Stayed 1 night in the Stromness Hotel after our tent was blown away in a storm, and our return ferry was next day. The price we paid for the hotel was probably near the top end for the Island, but with a lot of B&B's full, we didn't want the hassle of driving round trying to find somewhere cheaper. The... More

The bar at the restaurant has a nice selection of ales from two Orcadian breweries. What is most remarkable is the Hotel's Whisky Bar, which claims to offer more than 100 types of... More

The hotel has old fashioned charm and the staff were extremely welcoming. We ate in the hotel restaurant and the food was excellent and great value for money. Breakfast was also... More

We stayed here with a group of 27 visiting Orkney. It's a fantastic location: close to the harbour, buses and with a fabulous view over to Hoy. There is also parking provided if you need it. The rooms were all comfortable and quiet and the staff were invariably helpful. The breakfast was great: haggis, full Scottish and porridge to die... More

Imposing and solid and a couple of minutes walk away from the ferry terminal you're greated by a building which looms over you but is perfect in its setting. The interior has seen better days and is over due some TLC. If you're a bit on the fussy side you might not enjoy your stay. The lack of a proper... More
